00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.319
after this year's WWDC it is going to be

00:00:03.159 --> 00:00:08.800
really hard to be an apple hater they showed off a laundry list of new

00:00:07.319 --> 00:00:13.559
features and quality of life improvements across their platforms that

00:00:11.799 --> 00:00:19.199
finally address some of my most long-standing gripes and introduce me to

00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:25.080
ideas that I never knew that I needed Shazam but for TV and movies that sounds

00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:32.000
shamazing a reader mode that doesn't block ads but rather defocuses them yes

00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:34.160
please RC text message support I mean

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:39.120
sure as long as I can still tell who the disgusting green bubbles are wait T9

00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:43.760
dialing are you kidding me this is amazing and how about an AI enhanced

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:48.879
Siri that can find that email that someone sent me the list is seriously so

00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:55.039
long and legitimately exciting that it was hard to find a spot to segue to our

00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:56.879
sponsor I fix it laptops aren't cheap so

00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:00.920
why would you run out and buy a new one when I fix it can help give your old one

00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:05.159
a new lease on life check out their replacement parts and guides at the link

00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:10.000
in the video description let's kick off with what's new with Siri starting with

00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:13.560
the ability to talk to Siri via text finally I don't need to look like a

00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:17.960
jackass yakking at my phone just to quickly set a reminder I still will of

00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:21.320
course because my hands being full is the main reason to use a digital

00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:26.119
assistant but hey it's the thought that counts speaking of Siri can finally

00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:30.119
understand when you pause and can't remember what you were going to say or

00:01:28.240 --> 00:01:34.439
if you just mess up rather than needing to start a new prompt it's things like

00:01:32.520 --> 00:01:38.439
this assuming they actually work this time that should really help bring the

00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:43.600
experience closer to what we were sold back with the iPhone 4S and it's not

00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:47.159
just Siri either new AI enhanced functions are now built into all of

00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:51.640
Apple's operating systems that allow you to quickly generate smart replies

00:01:49.399 --> 00:01:56.799
proofread or rewrite messages and summarize content which is incredibly

00:01:54.360 --> 00:02:01.240
useful probably the most useful tool for me though is reduce interruptions which

00:01:59.320 --> 00:02:05.560
uses Clues to figure out what notifications are likely to be actually

00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:10.039
important versus which ones are probably not so much it's kind of like Focus mode

00:02:07.880 --> 00:02:14.000
but more automatic but how is all of this working well Apple claims that

00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:18.519
their machine learning algorithms primarily run on device as they always

00:02:16.519 --> 00:02:23.200
have but because of the increasing complexity of these tasks Apple's

00:02:20.959 --> 00:02:27.760
implementing what they call Private Cloud compute a system whereby

00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:32.200
information relevant to the task and only that information is sent to Apple's

00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:36.599
servers to supplement the computer that's in your pocket or on your wrist

00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:42.959
Apple explicitly pointed out that these servers run Apple silicon which means I

00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:44.519
don't know maybe exer is coming back

00:02:42.959 --> 00:02:48.959
probably not but you can't blame a girl for hoping whatever silicon is involved

00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:53.080
Apple was very careful to make it clear that they cannot read your information

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:56.560
even going as far as to dedicate whole sections of the hour and a half long

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.800
presentation to explaining how the system works now assuming that you trust

00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:06.959
Apple more than you do Microsoft their recall like features might be pretty

00:03:03.959 --> 00:03:09.200
useful and like recall most of the

00:03:06.959 --> 00:03:13.080
functionality is already on your I device in a more limited form for

00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:18.280
example you can already search for people's faces or for appointments and

00:03:15.239 --> 00:03:21.200
iMessage but now you can do so in a more

00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:24.599
natural open-ended way Apple didn't explain how metadata for these new

00:03:22.799 --> 00:03:28.560
capabilities is handled where it's stored and whether local apps can access

00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:32.480
it but they did invite independent experts to audit the process

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:37.000
and according to Apple I devices and Macs will refuse to connect to a private

00:03:34.959 --> 00:03:41.519
Cloud Server unless it's been publicly logged for inspection in general it was

00:03:39.760 --> 00:03:45.560
clear that they wanted to avoid any comparisons to Microsoft around the

00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:50.879
issues of privacy and security this extends even to the integration of chat

00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:53.360
GPT in iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia a

00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:57.319
little more on those later for example if a prompt is deemed to be too

00:03:54.959 --> 00:04:02.159
complicated for Siri it will ask you before sending it to open aai and it

00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:06.000
will escate your device's IP address on the subject of open aai you can link

00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:10.720
your open a account if you want to access paid chat GPT features but by

00:04:08.519 --> 00:04:16.880
default it is free with no account required and Apple's agreement with open

00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:19.680
aai requires them to not store requests

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:25.080
moving on gen emojis are an interesting if Eerie concept but what's cooler is

00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:29.080
Apple's new tool image playground that underpins it it can be used to create

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:33.160
images out of simple prompts and its integration applications like Apple

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:37.919
notes allows you to quickly and easily turn just a basic sketch and maybe a

00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:41.320
simple wordcloud into a finished image for now it's available in three

00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:45.320
different styles but I would expect that to expand in the future now let's shift

00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:50.800
gears and talk about what I am most excited about iOS 18 and its ability to

00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:55.039
do what Android has done since basically forever that's right my friends T9

00:04:53.440 --> 00:05:00.720
dialing baby just kidding um they did add that

00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:04.479
but they added so much you can finally arrange your apps and widgets however

00:05:02.479 --> 00:05:07.960
you want to if you've got a nice picture you want to set as your wallpaper but

00:05:06.280 --> 00:05:12.639
key parts are covered with those stupid app icons you don't have to deal with

00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:17.280
that anymore also they barely touched on this during the presentation but you can

00:05:14.280 --> 00:05:18.759
now resize your apps which is great if

00:05:17.280 --> 00:05:23.280
you were in your Prime when the first iPhone came out but aren't as dextrous

00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:27.560
as you once were they've also got their new dark mode to make those icons black

00:05:25.960 --> 00:05:32.280
but what's even cooler is their new customization sheet that lets you tint

00:05:30.080 --> 00:05:35.319
them with whatever color you want and I get it this is a minor thing that

00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:39.280
doesn't serve a purpose other than to make your device look a little more you

00:05:37.840 --> 00:05:44.720
but look if you're going to list customization as something that you love about Android you don't get to suddenly

00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:50.039
not care about it when Apple has a cool idea like their new personalization for

00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:55.000
control center not only can you swipe to new groups of controls like for media

00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:59.360
playback or for your smart home but you can add more controls to each group

00:05:57.280 --> 00:06:03.520
through the new controls Gallery you can res size them you can change the layout

00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:07.759
and thanks to the new controls API for devs you're going to see third party app

00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:12.280
controls as options that you can just add wherever you want just like you can

00:06:09.960 --> 00:06:18.800
add pins wherever you want our keyboard pins are back on LTT Store.com overall

00:06:15.479 --> 00:06:21.919
this is amazing I mean it feels like

00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:24.840
apple is finally starting to get why so

00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:29.280
many people prefer Android devices I mean obviously they're still nowhere

00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:35.639
near as open as the competition and I would loved to see features like these I

00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:38.039
don't know 10 years ago but late is

00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:41.160
better than never and on that note similar to the competition you're going

00:06:39.599 --> 00:06:46.120
to be able to do stuff from the lock screen now like take a note instead of

00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:50.599
being locked to just the camera and flashlight buttons man that's a really

00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:54.720
big one oh speaking of phone locks another feature Apple has always been

00:06:52.479 --> 00:06:58.879
big on has been security and privacy so of course we're getting more of that

00:06:56.479 --> 00:07:04.840
with the ability to lock and hide individual apps what's really cool is

00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:10.280
that any info from a locked app won't even appear in other places like in

00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:12.280
search or notifications so finally I can

00:07:10.280 --> 00:07:15.759
lend yvon my phone without her seeing a random grinder notification wait who put

00:07:14.400 --> 00:07:19.479
that in the script we don't talk about that no I'm I'm joking obviously I'm

00:07:17.400 --> 00:07:23.960
more of a Scruff guy anyway but in all seriousness this is a great feature for

00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:28.000
personal privacy or even just parents who lend their phone to their kids and

00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:32.759
don't want their stuff messed up on the subject of personal privacy you can now

00:07:29.960 --> 00:07:36.960
choose which contacts an app can see when it requests access so you can avoid

00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:41.919
your weird uncle on Instagram or what have you and you can keep your Bluetooth

00:07:39.440 --> 00:07:45.960
accessories private and hide them from anything else that might be on your

00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:49.520
network like your computer or your TV it's funny because I don't think I've

00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:54.039
ever asked for that but now it just seems like a brain dead obvious thing

00:07:51.960 --> 00:07:59.120
like notifying someone when a call is being recorded should also obviously be

00:07:56.639 --> 00:08:03.280
a thing uh texting is also getting some love with super cool features for

00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:11.159
messaging like satellite messaging on iPhone 14 and up when you're off grid

00:08:06.520 --> 00:08:13.159
and scheduled send dude I love scheduled

00:08:11.159 --> 00:08:18.120
send I use it all the time with Gmail and teams and they've added support for

00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:23.599
text formatting like bold metallics uh text effects using any Emoji or sticker

00:08:20.280 --> 00:08:25.680
for tap acts and at long last RCS or

00:08:23.599 --> 00:08:30.400
Rich communication Services messaging support wow I feel like that was a lot

00:08:28.280 --> 00:08:34.479
and there's more moving mov on to mail it's getting some love as well with the

00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:38.320
ability to categorize everything something that Gmail has been doing for

00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:42.640
a while now but still nice to see here and it's nice to see topography in the

00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:47.120
maps app and the ability to properly plan hiking trails including

00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:50.600
turn-by-turn directions Apple pay is also getting just about the coolest

00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:55.680
thing ever tap to cash so you can perform quick private user to user

00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:59.959
transactions along with thirdparty browser support even with some of the

00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:04.279
stuff we're not getting to too like the ability to stallin people out of your

00:09:01.880 --> 00:09:07.800
photos or game mode which reduces background sessions and reduces response

00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:12.920
time for Bluetooth accessories like headphones and controllers it really

00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:17.360
feels like apple has absolutely knocked this out of the park but wait there's

00:09:15.160 --> 00:09:23.519
more switching over to macOS they're making it a lot more appealing to switch

00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:25.760
over to macOS Sequoia adds some major

00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:30.160
improvements to using your eye devices together with continuity need to answer

00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:34.519
a message on your iPhone but too lazy to get up and go grab it with iPhone

00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:39.000
mirroring Apple's answer to Microsoft phone link you can it is fully

00:09:37.040 --> 00:09:43.200
interactable and whether you're docked or in standby mode or your iPhone is

00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:48.360
just sitting on the kitchen table the only person who can see what you're

00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:51.440
doing is you and they have finally done

00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:53.519
it guys you get suggested tile layouts

00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:58.600
when you drag a window to a corner or to the edge of your screen it's a feature

00:09:55.399 --> 00:10:00.880
Windows has had natively for a while now

00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:04.680
and I'm very very happy to see it here the same goes for their new presenter

00:10:02.680 --> 00:10:09.399
preview and background replacement capabilities for FaceTime and zoom uh

00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:13.880
there's a new passwords app for keychain that stores all your passwords pass keys

00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:18.800
and Verification codes okay that was just like before but now it's on all

00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:22.800
devices including Windows via iCloud for Windows which should make dipping your

00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:27.600
toes into the ecosystem just a little bit easier it's even available for the

00:10:25.040 --> 00:10:32.360
Vision Pro haha that's right Apple hasn't given up on it there's not a lot

00:10:29.839 --> 00:10:37.600
to talk about with vision os2 um there's ultrawide monitor mirroring now and you

00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:39.839
can turn 2D images into 3D ones uh but

00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:43.760
mainly it seems like apple just really wants people to develop for the Vision

00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:47.959
Pro with a bunch of new developer API support with that said they are making

00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:53.680
spatial content a lot easier to make with a new professional workflow and an

00:10:50.560 --> 00:10:55.680
EOS R7 spatial lens for Canon all of

00:10:53.680 --> 00:10:58.440
this still super expensive but we'll have it and all the other Apple products

00:10:57.079 --> 00:11:03.680
we mentioned today in the link down below will also have the new iPad with

00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:09.279
its stunning tandem OLED screen we did a ShortCircuit on that recently I

00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:11.120
couldn't believe my eyes pads get it

00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:17.240
anyway it's confirmed to be getting a ton of new support with iPad OS 18 um

00:11:14.560 --> 00:11:21.800
there's a lot of overlap obviously with iOS 18 I like the customization features

00:11:19.920 --> 00:11:25.880
we talked about earlier as well as the new floating tab bar that morphs into

00:11:24.040 --> 00:11:29.320
the sidebar um and just about everything's getting new animations to

00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:33.519
look cool and flashy but what's huge huge on iPad OS is the fact that it's

00:11:31.680 --> 00:11:37.279
finally got a calculator yeah okay that doesn't seem

00:11:36.279 --> 00:11:45.800
like the kind of thing that I would normally get excited about but along with math notes this thing fcks and it's

00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:49.240
also available on macOS there's way too much to cover about their calculator in

00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:53.120
this video but I think it's safe to say that if you're going to school for

00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:57.160
anything math and graphing heavy it is going to be an absolute GameChanger

00:11:55.560 --> 00:12:01.480
another big deal is the remote permissions capability that your

00:11:58.680 --> 00:12:06.720
friendly Neighborhood Family it guy or girl is going to love that's right no

00:12:04.839 --> 00:12:10.320
more endlessly repeating instructions over the phone to help grandma or

00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:16.560
Grandpa access the photos they hid in some random folder now you can just ask

00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:18.880
for remote access and do it yourself got

00:12:16.560 --> 00:12:24.079
to love it that is assuming that your grandma can figure out how to allow

00:12:20.959 --> 00:12:26.000
remote access and when you pick up your

00:12:24.079 --> 00:12:30.880
Apple TV remote you now get the ability to run 21 by9 widescreen projectors for

00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:34.199
a full-frame cinematic experience okay we didn't have much of a segue into that

00:12:32.199 --> 00:12:39.360
but that's a cool feature if you're lucky enough to have a 21 by9 widescreen

00:12:36.959 --> 00:12:43.160
projector in screen uh if not you can still access the other big new tvos

00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:48.480
feature by pulling out what Apple's calling Insight which will provide you

00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:53.160
with shotby shot information on actors and background music it's actually a lot

00:12:51.199 --> 00:12:57.000
cooler than it sounds when you see it happening in real time and if you guys

00:12:54.560 --> 00:13:01.440

the actors are saying you can toggle on their new dialogue enhancer nothing

00:13:06.519 --> 00:13:13.279
groundbreaking here but little tweaks nonetheless love to see them if tweaks

00:13:11.040 --> 00:13:18.240
to Apple TV make you uh roll your eyes and shake your head then Siri would have

00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:20.560
taken that personally as a command the

00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:25.279
airpods pro will finally be able to respond to Siri prompts like incoming

00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:29.800
calls or text messages silently with just a nod or Shake of the head that

00:13:27.920 --> 00:13:33.399
means that in a noisy envir M you can answer a call with a nod and the

00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:37.079
upgraded voice isolation Tech will kick in and hopefully let the person on the

00:13:35.160 --> 00:13:40.959

Service delivery networks go sorry

00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:14.560

00:14:14.560 --> 00:14:22.079
