TRANSCRIPT FOR EP 394
Welcome to the show I am your host Rob and this is the Today in iOS podcast - First up I want to thank GREG for sending in the music you hear in the background. GREG wrote:
Hi Rob,
You’ve been saying lately that you’re short on music, so I’d like to offer the attached mp3 to try and help you out. The title is “Down to Drown” by my son Joey. He performs regularly in the Portland OR area at various venues and works giving music lessons. “Down to Drown” was made with Garage Band which he pretty much uses exclusively since he can be a “One man band” and do all the instruments and sing harmony with himself by recording and mixing multiple tracks.

“Palm just did what Nokia and Microsoft and RIM couldn’t do: deliver a better experience than Steve Jobs did. unquote
Robert Scoble - Scobleizer, 8 Jan 2009
And it was not just the Analists that totally missed the mark with the Palm Pre - it was the Technorati that also were tripping over themselves to tout the Pre - Problem is no one actually checked with you know - the consumers - just sayin.

sends-out-press-invites-for-wwdc.html
Per WWDC Apple made it official when they sent out press invites stating that the WWDC keynote as expected will be held at 10:00 AM PT on Monday June 13th at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Fran - this is different than past years where the Keynote was at the Moscone West location - where the Rest of WWDC is held. But again this was expected and rumored over a month ago.
Also as expected - My press invite was once more lost in the mail - Come on Simon Pope - can’t you get my address correct . Well at least Microsoft knows where to send their invites to. Just Sayin.
I know a few of you will be at WWDC - and for those of you going - remember - 206-666-6364 - that’s 206-moon dog. And give me a call with any interesting things you hear or see at the event.
For those not going there will be a lot of content streamed via the WWDC app. If you check you will see the WWDC app from last year has an update available and it now has the schedule for 2016 in it.
On Monday it is the Keynote from 10:00 to Noon PT, Then from 2:00 to 4:00 is Platforms State of the Union and then from 4:30 to 5:30 PM PT is the Apple Design awards. All three events will be at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.
The Rest of WWDC will be back at Moscone West - sans the WWDC bash.
Tuesday kicks off with What’s new in Swift at 9:00 AM PT - and there are many many other sessions through out the week 308 according to the app - which again you can see each listed in the updated WWDC app now - regardless of if you are going or not.
And of course for those of you that are going - there is the Parties for WWDC app. Which is free and a must have for any founder hounders out there. OOPpps - someone has been watching to many episodes of Silicon Valley. I means is essential for anyone going per the great Networking opportunities the parties present. Yeah - that’s what you tell you boss that is sending you to WWDC when they see you downloaded that app.

2016-rumors-apple-siri-hardware/
Lots of rumors swirling around about WWDC and what will or will not be announced. Some earlier rumors were a new Apple Watch and a new Mac Book Pro to be announced - most recent rumors are no new hardware will be announced. It will all just be on iOS, OS X, watchOS and tvOS during the keynote - and with 4 OS’s to go over - I can see why the latest rumor is picking up steam. That said I put all three rumors on the Rumor Bingo card.
Per other items on the Bingo Card - iOS 10 and watchOS 3 will be announced.
Siri will come finally to Mac OS TEN
ApplePay and iMessages will come together to allow you to make direct payments to other individuals that have ApplePay. Yes - Apples answer to Square.
There will be at some point someone saying over 200 new features to iOS 10 rumor I like to include each year.
I included my rumor / thought that iOS 10 will just be for any iOS device that has a lightening port - no lightening port no iOS 10.
Many are rumoring about a SIRI SDK for devs.
And greatly improved Siri features. Hey how about getting the current ones like asking questions to work before adding more features - just saying.
Siri being a hub for HomeKit is one of those recent rumors.
I am still hoping for Advance Parental Controls
There is the rumor that Customization for Control center will be available. But I think that is more a wish list than a rumor.
As is the rumor about being able to delete stock Apps
My personal wish list item is the Ability to password protect folders or apps. And by password protect - that can also mean Touch ID protect or passcode protect them. Something where you can hand your iPhone to your kid or friend to play a game and they can’t get into Apps you don’t want them in.
Which brings us to SECURITY SECURITY SECURITY Improvements - I think with Apple v FBI - some new security features are surely on their way.
For iPad’s it would be nice to see Multi-User support - and this has been rumored - hoped for for some time.
Another rumor / wish item is the ability to control which apps are default apps. So you can pick which browser opens when you are in an email and which email app is default as well.
A rumor that did not happen last year and falls over to this year is the ability to select which individuals can get a read receipt in iMessage and which individuals do not get it.
And another one falling over from last year is an Apple Pay Rewards Program.
Sticking with rumors from last year that did not happen there is also a HomeKit App and Devs getting access to private API’s.
And that rounds up the Rumor Bingo Card. I already posted the bingo card and it is the post just prior to this episode so you will have it a week before WWDC. It is a stand alone post in the Tii App and also at today in iOS dot com. As always in those posts I will put in the items in plain text for those with screen readers.

Thanks to everyone that has joined and thanks for the great posts.
One new post in the G+ community that went up since the last episode came from Robert Spivack ON June 1st who posted the following
Quote
"Small things" Wish List for WWDC:
I would like to see future versions of iOS address 'annoyances' in addition to the tent pole new features:
iMessage - Improve iMessage to work like E-mail when used across multiple devices with continuity: When I read a msg on one device, it should be marked as read on all the other devices. When I delete a message on one device, it should be deleted from all the other devices. Make iMessage work like IMAP email. I am tired of reading/reviewing/deleting the same messages multiple times, yet I like using continuity to see my iMessages on iPhone, iPhone and Mac.
iOS Mail - Allow folders to be expanded and collapsed. I use lots of nested email folders (gatherer versus hunter) and it takes forever to scroll down through them to get to one far down on the list. I would like folders to have the rotating triangle widget like other apps do. I don't want to switch to 3rd party email apps, just want more capability.
Unquote
To which there were a FEW replies.
Daniel Reich replied

I agree with the iMessage syncing across all the devices.
Another feature I'd love is when I switch my phone to silent mode for the option of a timer or something to auto remind me to switch it back. Let us choose remind us never, 4 hours, 6 hours etc.
We can now lock notes. I'd love to lock photo albums with touch of. I'd also like tags. I can do tags and smart albums on my iMac. But they aren't in iOS.
unquote
Francisco Tapia replied
quote
+Robert E. Spivack it appears to work that way on my device. If I answer an iMessage on my phone it clears it from my iMac. if I answer a message on my iMac it is marked as read within the iMessages app. What I find annoying is that the notifications don't always clear from the notification drop down panel. They do tend to clear on the lock screen though.
running ios 9.3.2 and osx 10.11.5 I'm not sure if that's why.

Storm Garelli replied

I guess this is unlikely to happen in the age of Apple Music, but I'd love it if Apple would resume proper support for the older "Genius" playlist functionality in the Music apps on the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
I'm not an Apple Music subscriber, but I do subscribe to iTunes Match and have a huge music library of my own. I really do miss the Genius functionality, which is not present at all in the Apple TV Music app, and now rarely works in the iPhone/iPad Music app. :-(

Daniel Reich replied

With the messages.. that's what I mean - the notifications don't clear. And if I delete a message from my bank on my iPhone, the message is still on my iMac and iPad. It might be marked read but it wasn't deleted.
Whatever is done one one device I like the others to match up.

Since the last episode there were also dozens and dozens of other new posts and comments in the Tii Google+ community - which is an Android fan bois free zone and spammer free zone. Yup it is the most civil Google+ community covering iOS.

Rob, I just listened to 395 and was shocked to hear you never need to re pair your Pencil.
I bought iPad Pro 9.7 about a week after release along with the Pencil. From the first day I had to re pair the pencil at least once a day. I returned the pencil and got another, same problem so I returned iPad Pro as well. It is now two months later and I find that the most I've been able to get between pairings is 3 days. I just gave up and figured it's a "feature" ha.
I should qualify and explain that I guess I'm not technically re pairing, but rather I need to swipe up for the control pane and turn Bluetooth off and back on to get Pencil to connect. But a few times I have had to connect the pencil to the Lightning port to fully re pair the accessory as well.
I'm now off to read the link to see if there's something new in there that might fix this for me.
unquote
Nope Never have needed to do that - for me the Apple Pencil has been rock solid. Maybe I am lucky or it works better with the 12.9 Inch iPad.
Here is an email on the Apple Pencil Repairing issue:
Hi Rob. I have been using the Apple Pencil almost every work day for six weeks to take handwritten notes on my iPad via the Penultimate app. It works great.
I have had to re-pair the Pencil a couple of times during this period. Has not happened enough for me to figure out the precipitating event and certainly not enough to be a hassle.
There are two issues that are of concern. First is the charging level. It has not been obvious to me yet how to know the charging level of the pencil while in use. Also, the pencil charging adapter for the lightening charging cable is so small that I am afraid of losing it. Would have been nice if Apple had included a small case to attach it to the charging cable.
Even though it is chargeable via the lightening port on the iPad, perhaps the Pencil will be wirelessly chargeable in the future. That would be convenient.

2/apple-rolls-out-ios-932-
for-the-97-inch-ipad-pro
Late last week Apple rolled out iOS 9.3.2 again for the 9.7 Inch iPad Pro’s - so if you were one that had held off updating - good for you.
As always backup your device fully before updating and make sure you force quit out of all open apps. And I still recommend doing a Reset Network settings after force quitting the open apps and right before updating. Remember when you do that to log back into your wifi first - then do the upgrade.
PC Mag had an article on this saying Apple released some more support articles on the issues with updating. And warned that if you are trying to do it wirelessly you may see a message about turning off your device waiting 10 seconds and then connecting it to a charger or mac and then to proceed with the update.
If you are doing the update via iTunes and get an unknown Error 9 Message - they say it is safe to click through and continue with the update and to stay connected to your computer until the update is finished.
Of course it goes with out saying you should make sure iTunes is updated to the latest version - ok - well actually I said it - and really I think is should go with saying - because not everyone knows that or remembers to do that first. So make sure you update iTunes to the latest version.
Of course hearing all this you might just through your hands up and say I give up on iOS 9.3.2 for my iPad pro 9.7 inch version and really at this point who could blame you.
I will just say proceed at your own risk or better yet wait another week to see what other issues pop up for the 9.7 inch iPad Pro. Just Sayin

2016/06/03/apple-news-digest-leak-
ios-iphone-7-iphone-8/
It was also another busy period for iPhone 7 rumors.
Once again more of those rumors are coming in that base storage levels will double across the board to 32 still not enough GB’s, 128 just right for most GB’s and 256 I have a new Baby GB’s versions.
The iphone 7 series will look mostly like the iPhone 6 series - with just moved antenna lines.
If true it almost certainly means not inductive charging - that would likely come with the iPhone 8 - which is expected in Fall 2017. And is rumored to be curved glass from and back. goodbye bumpies.
But being glass on the back will make it easier for inductive charging.
In theory Apple could do inductive charging with the current design by having the Apple Logo be the location where the cut out allows for inductive charging. But that would be surprising at best if Apple did that.
the iPhone 8 is also rumored to sport an OLED display.
We are also starting to see lightening to 3.5 mm headphone jack adapters popping up on Chinese sites - it is possible they are just covering their bases incase Apple removes the headphone jack on the iPhone 7 - right that is a possibility - but a probability is they have some inside info and are rolling these out knowing they will be needed.
Another rumor per the 7+ is that it will sport 3GB of Ram - vs the 2GB for the 7 - which is the same as what is in the 6S and 6S+ now.
Rumors keep coming in that the 7+ will have a dual camera while the 7 will have a single camera sensor on the back side.
There will still be a camera bump on the back side for both devices. Personally for the 7+ I would take a thicker device with a bigger battery and no bump - just saying. Give me a device that is slightly thicker and last 24 hours of serious use and dual camera - oh yeah I upgrade in a HEART beat.
The Camera hole for the iPhone 7 appears to be larger leading to rumors of a better / larger camera - but saying the next gen iPhone will have a better camera is the same as saying there is a next gen iPhone.
Rumors of course are swirling about the iPhone 7 being waterproof - which really means much more water resistant - those rumors come from the many tests done on the iPhone SE which seems to be much more water resistant than any previous iPhone and more so than the Galaxy’s out there being dosed in champaign in commercials - because yes walking through a liquor store pouring champaign on your smartphone and then the floor is as real world as it gets.
Not only is it dumb and a waste of champaign - it is just really inconsiderate of the folks in the liquor store that have to mop up your mess.
of course removing the headphone jack in the iPhone 7 should also help to make it even more water proof than the aforementioned iPhone SE.
But with rumors spinning up about the iPhone 8 for 2017 being the radical new design - what is that going to mean to those of us with the 6+ being two years old in September - do we upgrade or not.
Those camera specs are really going to be a strong driving force behind my decision. As will the internal CPU specs - which so far when it comes to the rumor mill - there is not much or anything substantial out there. Just that it will be faster - you think.

cuts-another-1850-jobs-takes-950-million-
charge-in-phone-hardware-business/
Microsoft continues face the realities of their failing windows phone platform. The cut another 1,850 jobs - most in Finland - and tied to the Lumia product line.
MS is also taking a $950 Million impairment and restructuring charge - hint not a good thing.
MS still plans to introduce new Lumia phones - it is just that they are tightening the ship and focusing on fewer models and key market niches. Or as MS CEO Nadella said last year - MS would quote sharpen its sights on fans, business customers and value-sensitive users.
To put things in perspective - Globally Windows Phone is now less than a 1% market share - sounds like they need a lot more fans. just sayin.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/
2123138713/unique-screen-protection-
all-iphone-6-and-6-models
This weeks Kickstarter project is a product that looks like the Bumpies I so enjoy for my phone. Which by the way you can get at utomic.com
But this kickstarter project goes by the title
quote Unique Screen Protection | All iPhone 6 and 6+ Models unquote
But their name is FlexPads except you can’t actually find them by their name - so you have to search for unique screen protection 3 words - nice.
This project has a goal of $10,000 and has raised $217 to date. Ouch.
It has until Sunday July 10th at 2:11 PM CT to get the other 9,783 dollars.
The good news is for $10 you can get in on the early bird special. That will get you 1 pack of 1 color.
These of course wrap around the corners of your iPhones and offer the protections when dropped.
However I do see an issue with their design - now as I look at it more - they fold over just the top and don’t see to protect the sides as well they are much more narrow than the bumpies.
I am actually going to recommend against these - not that they will get funded anyway - but because of the design - I do not feel it gives the same protection of the bumpies do or other similar designs do - they just made the corner cover much too narrow.
Sorry guys - best to pull your Kickstarter project and redesign and relaunch.

http://www.applemust.com/cut-the-
bs-devs-are-not-losing-interest-
in-apple-watch/
Jonny Evans had a post titled quote Cut the BS - Devs are not losing interest in Apple Watch unquote
The nexus of the article comes from a BS report from Realm suggesting devs are loosing interest in Apple Watch - based on date that does not actually suggest that.
Essentially there is some data that shows for every 1,000 new iOS apps being built there are 10 tvOS apps and maybe one Watch app. Actually kind of surprised tvOS apps are that high.
So the REALM company took the difference in numbers to mean devs are loosing interest - but well of course less people are developing for Apple Watch - iOS apps are still the bread and butter.
Plus many are waiting for Watch OS 3 to see what new features are available.
Or as Johnny said not so nicely - any reporting that devs are loosing interest in Apple watch is pure and utter Bull expletive
Apple Watch regardless of what the naysayers want to say is successful - it captured 63% market share in the all import Holiday - 4th quarter of 2015. It has already pulled in $2 Billion in Revenue in its first year. and from survey’s conducted by Needham & Co - 62% of current Apple watch users plan to upgrade to a new Apple watch in the future.
That’s ok - because haters gota hate. And Apple has plenty of those out there.

VOICEMAIL - Chris_debrotie_feedback_xamiran_conference
Hi Rob,
Purchased Apple Watch online, as we had to at the beginning , on May 12, 2015.
As you had mentioned, my visa was billed May 28, so I knew it was on its way!
UPS shipped to my door, and had delivery date of June 3rd, 2015.
Love the Apple Watch. Fast forward June 2016. June 2nd, to be exact.
Removed my Apple Watch from its night stand (love that feature as my alarm clock), and the ceramic hart rate monitor fell out, only being held by a cord.
Not wanted to lose my activity streak, I pressed it back in, continued with my day and ended up at the Apple Store later that night.
Big surprise to me, that the warranty, starts on the shipping/billing day, not the day you revived the product. Yep the warranty was out by two days. Cost, a flat fee of $400 something plus taxes. Apple care would have saved me $100.
Knowing I could prove the delivery date, I told them to go ahead. It is not fixed in store, so I will be getting a brand new one, I was told.
Called 1800 apple number explained, and they are waving the fee this one time only. So problem solved.
Next time I will drive the 30 minuets, so I know my dates for warranty for sure.
As a note: I believe the heat from the charging over night must warmed the glue that holds the ceramic hart rate. Over time it must become week, or dries out.
No screw were evident to hold it in place.
Regards,
Timothy

1/amazon-prime-app-not-likely-to-
appear-on-the-apple-tv-anytime-soon
The one app I miss on my current Gen Apple TV’s - yes plural - I just got one for my Den as well. The kids were hogging the one in our bedroom to much. Well the one App I really miss is Amazon Prime. I mean I manage fine sorta - I just run it on my iPhone 6+ and airplay it to the Apple TV of my choice - but I would rather not have to do that extra step. I would rather be able to use Siri to search for a show - and have what is available in Amazon prime be listed. That is where it is a pain - I first search with siri - and hopefully the movie or TV show I am looking for shows up in Netflix or HBO Now or AMC or some other app Siri searches through - and if not - then I go on my iPhone and search via Amazon Prime - and then if I strike out - depending on the level of desire - I go and pay via iTunes for that show or movie. But I would again like to see Amazon Prime as an App on Apple TV - but sadly some recent comments from Jeff Bezos does not make that look like a short term probability.
He said Amazon only wants to sell devices that support Prime Video and while quote "you can always get the video player on the device," you can't always get them on "acceptable business terms.” unquote.
When pressed if those terms involved Apple’s famous 30% cut - Bezos only would say quote "private business discussions should stay private.” unquote.
So for the foreseeable future at least it looks like search flow is ask siri to see if a show or movie is available - if it is only iTunes - then go to iPhone and search Amazon Prime app - and if not there - then go back to iTunes and purchase or search for something else and repeat.

Proof I am not the only snarky one in the Smartphone space.
I love this next story. Sprint stole the Can you hear me now guy and just started running their own commercials with the same actor.
According to Paul Marcarelli the actor that played the Test Man from 2002 to 2011 for Verizon
quote "I used to ask if you 'can hear me now' with Verizon. Not anymore, I'm with Sprint now, because guess what? It's 2016 and every network is great. In fact Sprint's reliability is now within 1% of Verizon and Sprint saves you 50% over Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile's rates. Can you hear that? unquote
And that is not the real snakiness - it actually comes from Verizon that replied.
Quote "Sprint is using our 2002 pitchman because their network is finally catching up to our 2002 network quality, unquote
Oh SNAP.

Hi Rob, was wondering if it was time again to explain who all those people are we hear in the introduction to each podcast. I know one of them is Steve Ballmer, but could you tell us who the others are? Thanks and keep up the good work.
Regards,
Ron in Toronto
Hi Ron - Yes - Steve Ballmer saying I like it a lot. Which is pulled from Episode 0 of what was then Today in iPhone - which if you have never listened to - it is worth a listen. And it still on the RSS feed.
Steve Ballmer is followed by Steve Jobs saying - Today in iPhone - Which I debate internally on changing at some point to Tim Cook or Johnny Ive saying Today in iOS. Just can’t bring myself to making that change.
There is of course the Hey Kool-Aid clip - which is my way of saying this is a fan boy podcast as Yes clearly I have drunk the Apple kool-aid
And then finally it is Sir Patrick Stewart - AKA Captain Picard or Pressor X or Gurney Halleck - +5 points if the latter reference is how you first think of him. Yes That is Sir Patrick Stewart saying My Beautiful iPhone which I never have out of my Hand.
So there you go - Thanks for the question.
