I’ll always be an @Apple evangelist, but this is testing my faith. 🍎💀
How are we in 2026 and I’m doing a manual "Notes>Files>Voice Memos" dance for a call transcript from 8 hrs ago? "Soon" is officially gaslighting.
Fix the plumbing, Tim. 🛠️🫠

@elonmusk Make it less explicit generally speaking. Some of us who haul kids around don’t want them learning this stuff.

What are the most important improvements to make to Grok 4 Fast?
Critical feedback is much appreciated.
X Freeze@XFreeze
Met a few devs this weekend… They still didn’t know about Grok 4 Fast.. Grok 4 Fast is a game-changer: It has the Highest intelligence density ever - outperforms top models Ultra cost-effective: Up to 98% cheaper than alternatives Super-fast output = more productivity, less waiting It’s wild that this isn’t mainstream yet If you’re not using Grok 4 Fast, you’re burning both time and money Grok 4 Fast delivers GPT-5 (High) performance - for just 5% of the cost (95.7% cheaper)... Insane value Grok 4 Fast costs - Input tokens: 84% cheaper - Output tokens: 95% cheaper - Output speed: 150% faster GPT-5: $1.25/M input, $10/M output Grok 4 Fast: $0.20/M input, $0.50/M output Grok: 344 tokens/s GPT-5: ~138 tokens/s Let them know... If anything, Grok 4 Fast’s value is still under-appreciated

@BasicAppleGuy @Apple I brought 30 MBP boxes to mine recently from a corporate lease purchase. Some people say they do, some don’t but it’s not hard for them to just add it to one of the many pallets they send off each week of damages, recycled product, etc.
English
@mic_themacguy @Apple Can you recycle them at Apple stores? I have municipal recycling so they went there. ♻️

Happy Apple-Box-Throwaway-Day to those who celebrate! 🎉

@lucasaaron @Apple @eholtzclaw had fun with this when he updated after being told not to 🤣
Apparently it was a 14.0 automatic setting but it has since been set to off by default as far as I’ve seen.
English
You can thank @Apple’s Sonoma Mac update. (It happens in any video app now.) It’s a daily surprise now. But I’m sure not always great in some professions. You can turn off in the green button in Menu Bar at top right.
No BS Therapist@TweetATherapist
JAIL for whoever at @Apple & @Zoom thought this would be cute
English
It actually forced you to turn it off manually in the initial 14.0 but now it’s off by default for us @LigerMarketing
Their efforts to be more business-focused fell short with this oversight.

@ClassicII_MrMac @SpigenWorld Yes!! I’m not a green fan but that would honestly be amazing. I work for @LigerMarketing hence the need for orange. Also working on saving for the Ultra 50/50 for the bigger watch but also the orange bands lol

@mic_themacguy @SpigenWorld If they made one in Lime, with the iBook curve I would buy 10 LOL!

I don't sponsor products, but if you are interested the company is called Spigen.

It’d be great if @apple (and @ATT @Verizon @TMobile) provided a return label to ship empty packaging back to Apple for them to recycle. I’ve taken so dozens of Apple product boxes back to their store because they do great work in recycling.

This is the only acceptable way to unbox the iPhone 15 Pro. The box goes in the trash. Always.

@useMotion Need iCloud support yesterday, please! I'll do anything.
English
@useMotion @lem0nbutter Your reply to one user below said later this year (2022). I'm new to Motion and loving it in my first few days of the trial, but SERIOUSLY need some iCloud love. Flip that switch and make it happen so I can subscribe please! 😇
English
@lem0nbutter We may build iCloud calendar support in the future. We'll be sure to let you know when this is available. Let us know if you have any other questions, we're happy to help!
English
@useMotion Is it possible to add/sync an Apple calendar?

With Apple rumoured to transition away from leather cases for the iPhone potentially, I wonder if we’ll continue to see leather MagSafe Wallets or if Apple will release wallets with new materials?

@BasicAppleGuy Having to enter iPhone passcode to access Face ID & Passcode settings. Why not Face ID?
English
@TailosiveTech I will never understand why Rules you set up in macOS don’t sync to iOS… come on @Apple

🔥Hot Take🔥
I love the standard Mail app in iOS.
It’s simple, clean, and minimal. It works.
I’m afraid to ask… but why do so many people hate it?
