WWDC23: Monday’s Tidbits and Community Reactions

One of my favorite things after any Apple event is scouring the product pages, accompanying videos, and social media timelines for all the little things that didn’t make the keynote. Here’s my roundup of stuff I’ve found so far. I’ll append more that I find today to the bottom, and will consider posting more throughout the week!


Hopefully, it works with Mail closed! I use Spark, but keep accounts enabled in Mail for just such OS integrations.

Might have to try this out, but I’ve never been a crossfade person before…

Now that you mention it, it’s a little funny that this wasn’t already the case.

Thank goodness!

Smart!

I expect this will be less necessary with passkeys as the future of authentication, but it’s a welcome addition in the interim.

I hadn’t even thought about scanned documents!

With just Bluetooth? Not the precision finding integration that we wanted, but pretty close! And coming to all of the 2nd gen Siri Remotes. 

Check out the screenshots. I’m partial to the topographical map view with an estimated walk time radius that makes so much sense that I can’t believe I haven’t seen that kind of UI before in other mapping solutions.

My parents will love this.

Child Safety features for all! Good to have them available.

AKA the empty the fridge” feature.

I wonder if this will work through the Apple Watch sans iPhone. I never run with my phone anymore.

Sounds like everything I need to make my switch. Can’t wait to go back to system integrations.

Glad to see some tech make its way out of that project. Wasn’t Mike Rockwell part of Titan, too?

Of note: When the App Store becomes available, compatible apps will be available automatically with no action needed, giving people more options in visionOS.”

I’m not a heavy inter-note linker, but I’d be very glad to have easy access to a URL back to a specific note that I can paste elsewhere.

Wait a sec, are apps going to be able to send their custom workouts into the Workouts app?
