February Photoblogging Challenge Day 16: Like many iOS nerds, I’m always trying to optimise my Home screen. I’m back to a minimalistic layout with Cradle Mountain, which I’m really enjoying. That folder that you see down the bottom is a container for what I call ‘The Rest’. 📷📱
Google’s disrespect for design standards in iOS is somewhat frustrating. Here’s a little example: the lack of title case in the app icon’s 3D Touch menu. Every other third-party app on my iPhone abides by this.
It has been some time since I wrote it but I decided to make my 2013 honours thesis ‘It Just Works’ available on Apple Books. This free ebook explores what it means to be an Apple fan. (It’s funny to see what has changed.) itunes.apple.com
I work in marketing but something that annoys me about the field is its overuse of the word ‘essential’. Everything’s apparently essential these days and the App Store is often guilty of this. I can’t see how anything that involves Pikachu could possibly be as essential as water, food or oxygen.
For some time, Natasha has been concerned that late-night activity reminders on Apple Watch can be dangerous. ‘Why on Earth would it suggest for me to go for a walk so late at night?!’ She asserts that a safer (possibly indoor) alternative should be suggested instead.

Inspired by @burk, I’m sharing my current watch face on Series 4. It’s dense but oh-so-useful!
Windows ruins everything.
According to his LinkedIn account, Malcolm Turnbull is still the Prime Minister of Australia.
I was going through some old photos, when suddenly I stumbled on this Messages screenshot from 2015: Natasha noticed that I had become what Apple refers to as the ‘Man Pedestrian’. What’s now equally flabbergasting to me is how long that I’ve lived with the Apple Watch. I don’t think that I could function day-to-day now without it.
