how come no hardware??
last day of this June event???

WWDC rarely has any product announcement with the MacBook Pro Retina as an exception. The new MBP should be launching in the October time frame.

It is mentioned that it'll work with a phone as well.

Yes for now only Apple Watch since the watch is the only device you don't need extra steps top unlock. Using a phone, you still need the TouchID.

It wasn't mentioned in the keynote. Apple might add on for the iPhone in later updates.

at least that mean my rMBP 13" early 2015 isn't losing value that quickly.

really? because even on the apple website, only apple watch was mentioned.

"Get instant access to your Mac when you’re wearing Apple Watch. Just wake up your Mac and you’re ready to go. Take a quick call or step away, then get right back to work. No password typing required."

Yes you didn't read it wrongly. Only Apple Watch for now.

yeah because once you put on the watch, it is unlocked until you remove it.

i just want a new thunderbolt display first.

i don't actually like whatsapp but since so many people are using it and refused to switch, i had no choice but to use it as well.

personally i prefer fb messager and telegram because those can use on multiple device.

 

[szeli]

I hope dark mode is still coming...

I use imessage with some of my friends. Like to use it, especially when replying to messages on mac.

I hate FB apps.
They're like vampires.
Only difference is that they suck battery life instead.
