    Apple’s app tracking policy reportedly cost social media platforms nearly $10 billion

    RIP Touch Bar. I'm the only one who will miss you.

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 06:49 PM PDT

    When the touch bar came out, I was against it. I refused to buy a new laptop for so long until my 2011 air finally died of old age. Then when the M1 MacBook pro came out, I bought it, and turns out I liked it more than the buttons. It lets me answer calls easy and switch tabs while working easily. And I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who doesn't hate it lol. I'll use my current M1 until it dies and I'm forced to buy one years from now lol

    Haptic feedback on FaceID Unlock

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 05:25 PM PDT

    This probably isn't new to everyone, but I wanted to resurface a haptic feedback setting that I quite enjoy.

    For those with FaceID, go into settings, and under search, type in: Haptic on Successful Authentication. The last setting under that menu should be disabled.

    Happy unlocking!

    Shhh! - a party game for SharePlay

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 05:40 AM PDT

    Hey r/apple,

    I'm sure you've already seen, but SharePlay came out this past week! This is super exciting for me, because I've been working on a party game for SharePlay the last couple of months. The game is Shhh! (that's the name of the app, not me asking you to keep something secret).

    https://imgur.com/a/EAy4tAw

    The game should be familiar if you've played any social deduction games like Mafia or Spy Fall in the past. These types of games are always so much fun, and seemed perfectly suited to FaceTime. The basic premise is that all but one player know a secret location. They must keep this location hidden from the spy, while also deducing who the spy is through a series of questions.

    It's free, so if you're looking for SharePlay games to try with your friends, please give it a shot!

    It's available for both iOS & macOS. Android/old iOS version/Windows users can play as well, since Apple created the web version of FaceTime. Just have them join at https://shhh.games with a web join code. You can also play locally if you're sick of FaceTime by now.

    Have fun!

    Weather app features to add/improve

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 09:42 AM PDT

    • Allergies and Pollen level for different types

    • High and low tide

    • Daily weather summary. Take it straight from Dark Sky.

    • More precise location. Currently, Apple says something like rain in 5 minutes at the current location. Give us the address like Dark Sly. (I get the privacy, but.)

    • Moon phases. Make the moon icons correspond to the current moon phases and not always be a full moon icon.

    • Record and average temperatures/ rainfall/ snow for that day Weather history. Again take this from Dark Sky.

    • Notifications for more than just rain and snow. Apple currently only supports rain and snow

    • Storm names and trackers for hurricanes and other storms. I recently went to Weather.com on my mac from the widget, and they had an upcoming storm and the name I haven't heard about yet.

    • Weather news

    • Barometer

    • More interactive/ animated weather backgrounds. Some can be improved to be more accurate, and some, like the rain wallpapers, should be more animated. Currently, only heavy rainstorms are animated, and other rainstorms are still images.

    • umbrella and rainjacket reminder for those who forget it often or because you don't realize it.

    Safari extension Map Redirect to redirect all map links on every website to the app of your choice

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 04:30 AM PDT

    Thank you for all the helpful feedback. I was asked to re-post my Safari extension Map Redirect this Sunday. I have released a major update with added support for DuckDuckGo, Bind Maps, and some limited support for Waze as well.

    ​

    For those that do not know yet, Map Redirect is a Safari extension that redirects all map links on any web page to be opened in the app of your choice. Just click the map link or any "directions" button on any website. It will then redirect you to either Google Maps, Apple Maps, HERE WeGo Maps, Bing Maps, or Waze, based on your selection. If you want to be fancy, you can select "Ask Me" and it will always popup the options for each click. This works for search results on Google but also on any other website.

    ​

    Here is the link to download. As promo, the extension is for free for the coming days: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/map-redirect-for-map-links/id1590589672

    ​

    Notes:

    *Bing maps only work on iPad. On iPhone, Apple decided to automatically redirect to Apple Maps.

    *HERE WeGo deeplinking support is limited to only links with geo-coordinates

    *Waze Deeplinking support is limited to only search from your current location to what is around you

    ​

    I build this extension because I was frustrated on iPhone and iPads that you have no choice to open map links in the map application that you want. There is "Mapper for Safari" but it only works on Google Search. There is "Opener" but it still requires additional clicks and copy/paste. Unfortunately, there is no default app settings for any map links for any website you visit.

    ​

    The idea was to have one extension that works across the web. With the security features in iOS you can enable the extension only to specific sites or to any website you visit - either for only one day or forever.

    - Simple setup as Safari Extension on iPhone or iPad

    - Scans any website you visit for map links

    - Rewrites map links to your target that you choose

    - Select "Ask me" if you want to be prompted each time

    - Does not track or collect any data

    ​

    Of course, map links can come in various forms and different parameters. So, it was not easy to find all map links and correctly redirect them. It might be that some links are not correctly recognized or redirected, in that case please add a comment and I will take a look and to improve.

    ​

    Thanks for your continued feedback

    RunableTraining for runners

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 11:12 AM PDT

    I'd like to share out a passion project of mine.

    Runable was built so you can spend less time writing out running plans or thumbing through books and more time running. You can find running plans from Hal Higdon, Hanson Method, Jeff Galloway, & more. There are running plans from from 5k to 50k and at varying levels.

    There are no ads, no tracking, and no in-app purchases.

    Other features include creating your own plan, schedule reminders for individual runs, 3 day weather forecast, and more features coming.

    All free with no in-app purchases.

    Thanks /r/apple

    How apple's product placement works in Apple TV (Knives Out spoiler at the end)

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 10:10 PM PDT

    What has your macOS Monterey experience been like?

    Posted: 31 Oct 2021 03:55 AM PDT

    I'm running a 2015 MacBook Pro 13" and did a clean install.

    So far the system as a whole feels snappier than Big Sur. I can't take advantage of most of the new features due to the system's age (3D Maps, AirPlay to Mac, Universal Control,…), but I'm enjoying the polish and I'm guessing under-the-hood improvements. Enabling unlock with Apple Watch worked without a hitch the first time (I often had to go through the pairing process multiple times in the past) and switching AirPods between devices works better than before.

    Only gripes so far have been an issue with BitWarden (unrelated to macOS), and an issue with Safari that caused it to crash twice already when clearing the download list (also installing Xcode still takes ages).

    My checklist app has been massively redesigned and with a whole new look and tons of new features to include syncing checklists with friends. It's coming out soon and would love to get some beta testers- Testflight link included.

    Sneak peak of the app here- really happy with how it turned out...
