Apple has added what is essentially a Bixby button to the new iPhone.
Apple has added what is essentially a Bixby button to the new iPhone.
Hear me out, Bixby button was used to launch Samsung's personal assistant Bixby. This button is used to launch Siri. Then the button was mended to add further capabilities of launching other apps or phone functions.
The action button was never to lunch Siri. Holding the side button already does that.
This one was always designed to be programmable and by default does the same thing as the current mute switch.

Nice try.
16 2 ReplyWait no more mute button??
2 0 ReplyNo more mute switch no. Now it’s a button that you can program to do pretty much anything.
The default is still toggle silent mode though like the switch.

I'm not sure this is unpopular. You're right though.
8 4 ReplyIt is unpopular because it is completely different™ just like USB-C is completely different™.
Forcing Apple to use USB-C is against innovation but now it's an innovative port.
Bigger screens are not for iPhone except for when it is.

And USB-C was forced on them by the EU, they never claimed it was innovative or different, just that you could use the same cable on all devices now.
Dunk on Apple all you want, but at least do it with factual quips instead of manufactured outrage.

No, no, it’s completely different. Would you watch Harrison Ford age backwards in a Benjamin Bixby movie, or would you rather see a de-aged Harrison Ford in the latest ACTION movie?
2 0 ReplyExactly. Read an article raving about it. You can do it using iftt. Tap the back off phone and set up what that does.
Can't you set up what volume rocker does
