Tell me about automations that you have set up for yourself to improve your life, even in the smallest of ways.

I recently set up some @KeyboardMaestro macros; when I unlock or lock my computer while it's docked at my desk, it'll turn my office lights on & off automatically.

Fun fact about the M4 iPad Pro: it’s the first device to support and use Apple's new Secure Indicator Light (SIL) mechanism. When using the microphone or camera, the corresponding indicator dot is effectively rendered in hardware, making it a lot less likely that any malware or user space app would be able to access those sensors without the user’s knowledge.

We have an exciting announcement!

Today, we're introducing Comfort Zone, a new MacStories podcast all about pushing ourselves out of our, well, comfort zones.

Each week, @matt, @ChrisLawley and I will talk about a new piece of technology that we’ve been using — and one of us will surprise the other two hosts with a new challenge to mix things up in our technology stacks. 🌶️

Here’s a TestFlight for 1.4. Some ground rules:

1. You understand that this is beta software that may be accidentally horribly broken.

2. If you see a problem, you let me know.

If these conditions are not met, you go directly to App Jail.

I learned something new while reporting on Fire TV's 10-year anniversary: HDMI CEC allows Amazon (or any other streaming stick manufacturer, for that matter) to learn what kind of TV you have. https://www.lowpass.cc/p/fire-tv-ai-search-llm-imdb-amazon

I've had the pleasure of not just having this app to test and play with during its TestFlight phase but also follow its development.

There's another post where @thaddeus sums up this app so well: No signup. No login. No tracking. No algorithm. Just music.

Open the app & you're instantly in control. NO suggestions that are just bad & inaccurate. I absolutely love it. Plus, I know the level of care and attention Thaddeus gave this app first hand.

About by PCalc for visionOS is now available!

Perhaps the most pointless app on Vision Pro, but still quite fun to play with. This is a complete remake of the original PCalc About screen in VR. It's basically me experimenting with what's possible today with RealityKit, over-engineering things as usual, and then for some inexplicable reason actually shipping it. I hope you enjoy it!

Hundreds of objects swirl around a PCalc icon.
A lovely view of the public transport options in the PCalc About screen.

Plinky 1.0.9 is now available in the App Store with a lil feature and a fix.

There was an occasional crash that would occur on the iPad and Mac when trying to create a new Folder or Tag — it was a surprisingly subtle accessibility bug.

More excitingly developers and automators can now retrieve their Plinky ID handily by using the x-callback-url scheme. It's a very seamless process that also protects user privacy, you can learn more about it here.

Hi there im back with Day 49 of #100DaysofCosmoPic 🙋‍♂️ Today I used a really cool blog article written by my friend @JagCesar to change how my App Intents are displayed in the Shortcuts app and in spotlight search 😍 I also refined the favorites and history lists with some smooth animations 🤤

If you want to make your App intents look stylish too, here you go:

It shows a note on the lockscreen on how to get in touch if your phone has been found.
