Apple Byte - WWDC 2016 reactions and the things they didn't tell you (Apple Byte)

2016-06-16
what's good Bryant song here and welcome to the Apple buy for reaction to WWDC 2016 which could potentially mean bad apples unless they did everything perfect and some of the things they didn't tell you now there's a whole lot to cover here and we can't get to everything but let's start off with what surprised me the most at the show watch OS or what we like to call it here watch O's trace now Apple has finally given me a reason to give my Apple watch another try with a completely overhauled interface and superfast app load times I didn't end up selling mine just so I could see if it actually did anything legit with the software and it was their strongest announcement that significantly improved the product that really needed it the most and I know what you're thinking it was the Minnie Mouse watch face that got me wasn't it where you can change dress colors to match wristbands in yeah no comment now Apple's biggest miss here they still refuse to open up custom watch faces for developers there's still control freaks when it comes to the Apple watching you know what that's a bad apple but big ups for creating the stock app breathe that reminds us all to breathe all right TV OS got a few nice tweaks but my favorite was the single sign-in so you no longer have to sign into services like YouTube or Netflix or HBO GO every time you set up a new device it's all linked to your Apple login dark mode is a nice addition but it didn't appear as an option in any other OS and the sling TV app brings the first TV streaming subscription service to the Apple TV before Apple was even able to do it so maybe Apple is no longer in a rush to do it anymore and we finally have an official name for the new OS 10 it has been changed to Mac OS and we finally know the last name to our friend my name is Makos Sierra just like the rumor said Siri integration is here the crowd was surprised and excited about a universal clipboard to copy and paste across your devices touch ID integration is a clear sign that will see the feature in future hardware like the next-gen MacBook Pros resources found in the Mac OS Sierra developer beta even reference and led with multiple functions that point directly to that rumored OLED bar with new functionality now safari 10 will also be part of Sierra but Apple plans to disable plugins like Adobe Flash Java Silverlight and quicktime by default in order to focus on html5 content for a better web experience but there's more love for the Apple watch in this keynote Auto unlock with matt go west just think starting at $300 you too can unlock your Mac without entering a password and taxing your fragile fingers just another reason to buy an Apple watch totally worth it and finally iOS 10 the biggest change is going to be the lockscreen and notifications which lets us interact with our phones without even unlocking them and it's going to be super convenient I'm digging this 3d touch was the demo requirement to interact with it but my hunch is that a long press on devices that don't have it will do the same thing plus big thanks for finally allowing us to remove Apple's stock apps you're not actually deleting them but removing the hooks and user data so they're technically still there but you won't see them and that's a good Apple C good job now opening up Siri to third-party apps got some of the biggest Cheers until the next day developers realize sirikit is specifically limited for these type of apps and only these apps sad Apple and let's talk about Siri we were hoping to see a truly smarter more complex and sophisticated Siri but all it appeared to do was add support for more tasks instead of coming anywhere close to Google's context-aware and multi-layered queries Siri is better because it can do more things but it didn't look that much smarter and really that's a bad apple but what about iMessage first of all I don't hate it iMessage apps will get a lot of love and you know I'm going to emoji I everything plus who doesn't want to use the eggplant emoji that's now three times the size but it just seemed like Apple is trying so hard to say hey we're cool we know Millennials check out our facebook Messenger means Google alo meets snapchat messaging app they dedicated 15 minutes of the keynote just on iMessage I timed it it was the feature that got the biggest focus of the entire keynote are you kidding me now there's this product called the iPad pro that you Apple you touted as the future of computing it's one of my favorite pieces of hardware that's completely neutered by iOS that only reaches half of its potential with the lack of a true hybrid OS you gave iMessage 15 minutes and the iPad a three second mention for split screen mode in Safari at WWDC that's horrible and you know what that is that's a bad apple what do bad apples on the new Apple bite oh yeah alright that's going to do it for this week's show we'll do our speck giveaway winners next week but you can still use the code Apple byte for 15% off on their website email us at the Apple buy to see Netcom or tweet me at Bryant on with what you thought about WWDC thanks so much for watching we'll catch
