The EU declares Apple's iPadOS as a 'gatekeeper' due to its vast app ecosystem, locking in businesses like yours or users like you.
The European Union's designation of Apple's iPadOS as a "gatekeeper" signals a significant win for small businesses and startup owners in fostering a fair digital marketplace.
This move further underscores the EU's commitment to regulating tech giants such as Apple and gives smaller businesses the opportunity to thrive and innovate.
Apple must now comply with the DMA within 6 months. Our CEO, @jon, welcomes this, noting that iPads and iPhones share the same ecosystem and that Apple controls both as the gatekeeper.
The Commission said both business and end users are “locked-in” to #Apple’s #iPadOS ecosystem due to its size and user base, which it said the company leverages to disincentivize users from switching to competitors, giving Apple six months to ensure full compliance. #DMA
SwiftUI question: I have a NavigationSplitView that shows, depending on device and orientation, as split view or as a stack view. How can I see which mode it is in?
It is not columnVisibility as that only determines how it is displayed in split view mode, not split vs. stack.
iPadOS 18 could ship with built-in Calculator app, after 14 Calculator-less years
Imagine making a sophisticated piece of hardware, and yet the news that keeps popping up is how that hardware is missing calculator functions. So much so, that when you do decide to finally make a calculator app for your hardware, it's apparently news.
Can't tell whether this is hilarious or depressing.
Ich liebe FreeForm auf dem iPad. Mich stört einzig, dass man nicht automatisiert per Shortcut ein neues Blatt anlegen UND ihm auch einen Namen geben kann. Aktuell lege ich mir manuell für jeden Tag ein Blatt an und skribbele den ganzen Tag darauf rum - Notizen, Ideen, kleine Zeichnungen zur Ablenkung in langweiligen Meetings, etc. pp. Abends erfolgt dann ein kleines Review, die Todo-App wird gefüllt und relevante Notizen übertragen.
I'd really like to get a new #iPadPro soon. Mine is like the v0 of the Pro series so I think it's time for an upgrade. I'm trying to hold out for the next release. 😬
Wyświetlanie pojemności baterii i cykli ładowania ma się pojawić w iPadOS. Problem w tym, że ma być zarezerwowane dla nowszych modeli iPada. Ciężko w to uwierzyć, bo nie wierzę, że starsze modele są na to za słabe…
@krzysiek_borek najlepsze jest to że na 100% kontroler ładowania to zapisuje i gdzieś po szynie zapewne i2c można te dane odczytać (przy wymianie należy resetować).
Z resztą chyba iPad jak wszystkie iphony wie kiedy i czy na oryginalną została bateria wymieniona. A to właśnie z kontrolera ładowania :)
PSA: if you’re using an external keyboard with iOS or iPadOS, and it does not have an Escape key, remember that Command-. does the trick most of the time.
Update: if that is not enough for you, @nebucatnetzer
reminds us in the comments that you can always map Escape to, say, Caps Lock in Keyboard Settings. #PSA#iOS#iPadOS#EscapeKey
@davemark picking April 9 for announcement & launch April 19. Very interested in a new Air seeing my university student daughter has commandeered my one.
I’m looking for alternatives to #emacs#orgmode for #iPadOS . I used to ssh’d to a remote machine with Emacs, but it isn’t that good even with Mosh. Suggestions? Halp! 🆘
At the end of the day, I want to use the org-roam note-taking plugin. I know about #Logseq but I wonder if there’s something else to look for 👀
I've just shared a new Shortcut over on my own Shortcuts Archive.
It's a simple one this time, but one I use an awful lot to quickly test out new Shortcuts actions or whip up a prototype. It's called Shortcuts Playground.
