"Now you can share an iCloud storage plan with your entire family."

Oh wow. I might actually do that. My dad bought the $1 50GB plan and I have the $3 200GB plan. But I don't use all that space. I might just let my dad use my 200GB. And let my mom in on it too.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

Which icons out of interest? Anyone got any pics?

App Store and iTunes offhand.

The File app is available on iPhone and not just iPad, for those wondering.

 

[Mr.Shrugglesツ]

Devs can finally access NFC: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corenfc

I'm not seeing anything that says it can write NFC.

hmmm

Accidental damage now available for Macs

Wait, only within 60 days of purchase though.

Shit, this doesn't replace the standard AppleCare plan on Mac completely, does it? I was planning to get it for my Pro, but was waiting until closer to the end of my warranty. I'm already past 60 days of purchase.

 

[kaskade]

Did they fix the annoying volume pop up yet?

Looks like it's gone. No HUD at all.

 

[mrklaw]

Might as well fit in a trip to Hong Kong for that (it's 495 over there for the same version)...



Would be nice if that meant that there's an Oyster/Octopus/Presto travelcard in Wallet.

£489 in Japan. Will just wait until next time we're over there

Ok, now I'm convinced Apple really is out to murder MacRumors forums.

Coool. Don't really like the iTunes logo but I guess it can't stay a musical note as the store now offers more than just music.

 

[The Real Abed]

I'm so jealous of that iPad dock. Makes me wish iPhone Plus had an option for a 5th column and 7th row. Just for one more icon in the dock. I'd even sacrifice the landscape home screen for the extra row and column. You could make the icons slightly smaller and avoid having to do that and I wouldn't care. The icons are big enough as it is, they can be smaller. As long as it's an option for the Plus. At the very least I wouldn't mind the rounded edges of the dock.

I look forward to the upcoming videos from DetroitBorg and EverythingApplePro. I want to see more of that Control Center and Notification Center stuff.

 

[Guess Who]

Boy, this beta runs like dogshit on my iPad mini 4. The multitasking switcher is especially slow.

Mine, thanks for the heads up.

(I don't even own an Apple Watch yet)

Yessss!

 

[giga]

 

[Aiii]

New dock, new keyboard and new control center are all solid hits, well done Apple, love this update.

Yikes. I won't be getting the initial beta on anything.

 

[The Real Abed]

Yikes. I won't be getting the initial beta on anything.

Now you know why the Public Beta takes 2-3 weeks for the first release. Let the devs work out the kinks.

 

[Technosteve]

just got home to watch the keynote, i'm going to follow this thread like i'm watching it live. =(

 

[Trojita]

Tiny for a speaker meant to redefine the way I listen to music, yes. Don't know the google thing. I would never put something like that from google or Amazon into my living room

Redefine the way you listen to music? Too good for the google or amazon product? I can't tell who is joking or not in this thread anymore.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

Runs fine on my Air 2 and 7 Plus. Just lots of little bugs. Which is expected.

It looks like it does replace it...

 

[secretanchitman]

Yep it does - education discounts don't apply to it either it looks like. Only can buy it within 60 days.

 

[Guess Who]

It looks like it does replace it...

I remember when AppleCare+ came out for the iPhone, you could still get the old plan by contacting support for a while. Hopefully you can do that here, or I'm gonna be pissed.

 

[Erebus]

Any changes to notifications? Can you group them by app now?

Can anyone post a pic?

 

[Majine]

iPad multitasking is weird now.

You basically have to put apps you intend to multitask with in the dock, because that's the only place you can pull them in from.

Not sure if I like that...

 

[CrudeDiatribe]

Ok, now I'm convinced Apple really is out to murder MacRumors forums.

Let them die. I'm always appalled when I see a perfectly reasonable post on their page that has a note "discussion is in the [politics] section due to its controversial nature".

Recent apps also automatically appear in the dock.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

I only care about egpus, exciting news

Apparently we won't get that until Spring 2018. It's one of the footnotes on the High Sierra webpage. But I don't know if that's referring to egfx itself or egfx as it relates to VR use.

 

[WordAssassin]

So I only got to watch the keynote in bits as I did other work, but it looks like the iPad Pro is basically a tablet touch-screen Mac now, yeah?

We've got a Dock that can hold tons of apps now and be brought up at any time, apps can overlay one another and drag and drop into each other, there's a proper actual file system now, I'm sure lots of other things I missed (hell I'm still on a 1st Gen iPad and iPad Mini) but it looks like it's the actual half-way point between iOS and macOS?

Like all I kept thinking when they were showing off the new iPad features of iOS 11 was "Oh hey they finally made a touch-screen Mac computer".

I want one really bad but it's gonna be a while I think ;___;

Base iMac Pro starts at 32GB ECC and 1TB SSD with 3GB/s read speeds. That's gigabytes per second. Yeesh.

 

[MeatGrinder]

In terms of processing power, you're lacking native 10-bit HEVC hardware decoding (the 4k/UHD Blu-ray standard) and there's a minor performance difference.

I use parallels a lot, Excel, Overleaf, SAS and other statistical software for my MSc Economics grade. Will this increase be noticeable, or just only if I do video editing and other?

trying to convince my work to buy me one since I didn't cost them a WWDC ticket and hotel room

 

[Kayhan]

Might get the top of the line Macbook Pro.

Do people like silver or space gray for color?

I have a silver 2013 Macbook Air.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

To delete an app on iPad, you have to hold for a really long time because the brief hold before brings up the drag and drop ability.

Also, brightness settings keep going to dim on my iPhone and it’s annoying.

 

[Wet Bloodfart]

Sorry to ask this question since I'm sure its been answered numerous times, but:

Are the betas available yet? I signed up for the public beta program a while back but I'd love to screw around with the developer beta on my iPad.

[Nastrodamous]

Seems like notifications got worse......

 

[badcrumble]

Are non-recent notifications grouped/groupable by app now?

 

[EmiPrime]

Seems like notifications got worse......

How is that even possible? Apple please, just copy Android, nobody sane will think any less of you.

 

[Nastrodamous]

How is that even possible? Apple please, just copy Android, nobody sane will think any less of you.

like I don't quite get how they work, you swipe down once, then you swipe up to get older notifications, but you can't swipe left or right to dismiss individual ones because it takes you to widgets or the camera.

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

How is that even possible? Apple please, just copy Android, nobody sane will think any less of you.

Can someone point me to something that shows off Android notifications? I've never had an Android phone, so I'm curious how it's THAT much better than iPhone's.

 

[Memento_Mori15]

I have a silver 2013 Macbook Air.

I have the space gray MacBook Pro and it's sexy. Get space gray

I guarantee you that will happen. I'm going to call about my current Mac and see if I can bump it up

 

[soldierblue]

I'm pretty sure I want a 10.5in iPad Pro, but at the same time I'm almost temped to see how iOS 11 runs on my Air 2 first...

 

[Joel Was Right]

like I don't quite get how they work, you swipe down once, then you swipe up to get older notifications, but you can't swipe left or right to dismiss individual ones because it takes you to widgets or the camera.

I actually laughed reading this.

Yeah, the swipe up thing is dumb.

I’m hoping the non-response to left and right swipes is a bug because if not...ugh.

 

[Uno Venova]

Damn it's official, they have no idea how to really improve notifications.

 

[Aiii]

like I don't quite get how they work, you swipe down once, then you swipe up to get older notifications, but you can't swipe left or right to dismiss individual ones because it takes you to widgets or the camera.

Tap and hold, you get a nice preview and can then click through or remove. It is great, actually. Same on iPad now, too, finally.
