You could migrate the accounts to Authy (I think it has a watch app). 1password will do it too but it isn't free. And of course it's a pain to migrate if you have a lot of 2FA accounts.
It's an open standard. You can use any compatible authentication app.
I switched away from Authy cause the watch app. It was kind of annoying that it showed the list of accounts but not the codes, you had to do an extra step once you had the app open. I switched to Salesforce Authenticator cause it just shows the list of accounts and codes right there.
i got them 2 months ago (after the iPad event) because i accepted the fact that they wouldn't be released before at least late spring of 2019 then.
Kinda rough but found a way to do it within Safari itself, like won't handle email links from other apps, and just goes to a compose page (doesn't open a new window...probably not too hard for someone that actually knows JS).
Go to Settings->your name/account at the top left->iCloud->Photos and turn off the stuff there.
It's going to happen. Project Marzipan's UIkit in MacOS already supports dark mode. So in due time we will have a bunch of universal Mac/iOS UIkit apps supprting dark mode, ready for when Apple flips that switch on iOS. I think iOS 13, regardless of when Marzipan gets into the hands of developers.
iOS 13 will hopefully be a complete overhaul but I fear Apple may be too afraid of alienating people who have very little technical skill. Those users are Apple's main focus and concern.
Hope it's a big overhaul, a rising tide raises all ships and I don't feel iOS is raising any tides these days
If you know your parents needs can be fulfilled with an iPad, absolutely. I think rumor has it the next budget iPad will have a 10" instead of a 9.7" screen but I highly doubt screen quality or other specs will improve dramatically.
It's the perfect "mom" computer. It's an incredible value given its specs.
I don't really think any change to iOS will have a big effect on competing OS's.
So is my SO, except that iPad was my dad's back in the day. What a trooper, but it's really getting long in the tooth, after more than 7 years. Been planning to replace it since forever, but somehow it keeps on trucking. Gotta be one of the best iOS devices ever in longevity.
Exactly. That's as cheap as you're going to find it, and - just like the AppleTV 4k - i don't see any meaningful hardware improvements they could make. These devices are all about software and service upgrades.
Just don't forget a case for the iPad pro. Thing is stupid fragile
Siri saves everything you say too, that's just a part of home assistants. They even pay 3rd party companies to listen to it and audit the transcriptions.
Siri is listening, how else would it know when you say hey Siri?
That's how the Echo works. It's listening for "Alexa". And it's not recording all the time. lol Do you know how impractical that would be?
