    Do or do not, there is no try.

    Yeah - fair points, I’ve tested Siri a lot more than I have Alexa as well, so I probably notice it’s failures a lot more.

    Both have a long way to go before I’d consider one to be superior to the other, for sure.

    I haven't used Alexa, but I would say Google Assistant beats Siri by a wide margin in my experience with the two. I've never liked Siri. It's gotten better over the years, but I mostly found it frustrating to use.

    Truly love opening my laptop for the first time in almost two days and seeing "MacOS could not be installed on your computer" when I wasn't trying to install anything to begin with.......

  4. Siri what’s the Blazer game score? Nails it.

    Alexa?

    I don’t even know what she just said it but I think it was for some game and some team I’ve never heard of.

    My BeatsX broke a little while back so last week I bought some AirPods. So far, I am really enjoying them. I do wish there was proper volume control, but obviously some sacrifices have to be made in order to go completely wireless. Also, the charging case is so simple, but such a nice touch. I guess the true test will be when (if) I work out.

    Alexa doesn't even understand me when i tell her to turn off the alarm in the morning. I know Amazon is recording all the names i call her cause she doesnt get it.

    Ive had mine since October and i'm surprised i havent yet. I even dropped it on hard wood floor when changing the band once and freaked out.
    I have a protective "G Shock" type band i got but i like the leather band look for when im at work.

    Anyone downloaded the new iOS update for their iPhone? At work with no WiFi so haven’t been able to. Was wondering if if fixed the iMessage glitch.

    If I could just forget it

    I got it yesterday and so far I haven't seen it happen, but I'm not sure I can attribute that to it. It was happening off and on before I updated.
     
  14. I have a couple and I hate it haha. I wasn’t used to wearing a watch so I would always accidentally bump the watch into a wall or counter.

    I’ve been wearing a watch for most my adult life. My daily one was a gshock though and it was pretty scratched up but most of that was from the time I was mountain climbing

    What glitch is that? I’ve downloaded it. Don’t notice anything else different.

    I don’t even know if you would call it a glitch, but when people respond to iMessages, it shows their message as being sent before yours instead of after.

    Does anyone have a good email app? I was using Edison but the last 2 updates screwed with the notification system and it’s really bothering me.
     
  20. I like Spark.

    I use Airmal and I'm a fan. Might have to go back and try Spark again like Jason mentioned above, though. I just remember not enjoying the layout much but I've heard nothing but good things about it.

    Do or do not, there is no try.

    Apple Music's handling of adding albums pre-release finally appears to work as it should. Got a notification this morning advising that the rest of Tonight Alive's new album was now available and it was at the top of my "recently added". Beforehand I had to manually do it, which defeated the purpose entirely.

    I still wish I could pin an album to the top of "Recently Added", I'm probably the only one though.

    Something got messed up with my Apple ID last night and I got logged out everywhere. Not a big deal when it is just your phone, but it carried over to my iPad, iMac, Apple TV, Watch - after all the years the #1 thing I fear with Apple is having to change my Apple ID password and having to deal with the random logouts for the next 6 months.
