WWDC Wish List for iOS/Mac OS

With WWDC coming up on June 6 in the US, here is my wish list for iOS/iPad OS, and Mac OS.

iOS/iPad OS

Keep supported devices from iPhone 6S.

App Library choose to have alphabetical listing rather than just caategory’s.

Ability to select what is being displayed on the status line.

Interactive widgets: eg music, weather etc.

Split view on iPhone.

Completely turn on or off Wifi/bt.

Stand-alone AirPods app to update AirPods.

Weather app for  iPad OS.

Mac OS

More iOS apps transferred over to M1 Macs: eg Weather app.

Remote app which works with voiceOver.

Keyboard shortcut to answer/hang up calls in FaceTime.

Something I Accidentally Discovered

Last week I had an introduction to Karate which I officially started yesterday as we go to air.

I wanted to learn the main Japanese Karate terms so thought to give Apple’s Translation app a go: what a mess, VoiceOver spoke over the translation and only translated one way, plus a very annoying app layout screen.

Google Translate was recommended to me, and what a joy to use: Easy to setup/use, and VO did not speak over the translation in =either way.

My Next Discovery of the PS5

In setting up the PS5 last week, I forgot to mention that if you don’t do anything for a few minutes after switching on your new PS5, the screen reader will turn on automatically and off you go.
