11
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 2: Hello, how are you?

12
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: I am good. You know this week was a big one. Yeah,

13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: because it was WWDC Worldwide Developers Conference from Apple, and

14
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: I went up there on Monday. It is very quick

15
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: trip when up there Monday morning, came back Monday night.

16
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 1: I would have loved to stay all week, but with

17
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: our broadcast schedule that's kind of tough. But it's just

18
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: to me, it's like being a kid in a candy

19
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: store because Apple announces all stuff that's gonna happen with

20
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: all their products, and at this point they have so

21
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: many that I use I mean the iPhone, the Mac computer,

22
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: the Apple watch Apple TV. I don't really use but

23
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: iPad I don't really use that either, Okay, but they

24
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: made a lot of They announced a lot of new

25
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: features that are really cool. The biggest thing, and I've

26
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: never seen a reaction like this in my life, well

27
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: I have, but this was a big one. They announced

28
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: that iTunes is going away. So I'm gonna break that

29
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: down for you because I've gotten so many emails, so

30
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: many questions on my Facebook. I mean, I'm talking when

31
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: KTLA did it. So what happened was to give you

32
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: a little bit of a backstory. The story broke on

33
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: like Friday afternoon, I believe, and it was bloomberg. Someone

34
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: wrote about you know, iTunes was probably gonna go away,

35
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: and next thing, you know, what happens. It gets picked

36
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: up everywhere and of course mixed into a million different

37
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: like playing a game of telephone. Right, iTunes is dead

38
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: bloom blah blah blah boom, And so next thing you know,

39
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: people are going nuts. What happens to all my music?

40
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: What happens to all my this? That thing? And so

41
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: here I am to break it down because Apple is

42
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: not very happy about how this has been portrayed, because

43
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: it was confusing, Right, iTunes means a lot of different things.

44
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: It means iTunes the software, but it also means iTunes

45
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: the store, right, and the iTunes store. Let's be clear,

46
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: is not going away. iTunes software is being split into

47
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 1: three different pieces, Apple Music, Apple Podcasts, and Apple TV,

48
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: and almost all of the functions that you're used to

49
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: will be inside those three different apps. Now, when it

50
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: comes to synking your phone, that will be handled by

51
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: Finder on the Mac. Are you familiar with Finder? Yes,

52
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: It's like, well, I don't even know how you describe it.

53
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: It's like the.

54
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 2: The basic like the window on Window.

55
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I guess Windows is Windows is not a

56
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: good way to describe it.

57
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: Can also search on Finder.

58
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: It's just like it's Finder. It's like where everything happens,

59
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: all your files live. Right. So that now when you

60
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: put your plug in your iPhone, which, by the way,

61
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: one was last time you plug your I phone into

62
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: your computer.

63
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 2: It's been a long time.

64
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, you never, I mean you do it all through

65
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,839
Speaker 1: i Cloud now. So, but there are still a lot

66
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: of people, especially in our audience, that still do things

67
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 1: kind of an older way, right, and that is purchasing music.

68
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: So again, let me just go through some of the things.

69
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: Number one, the music that you have, it's all gonna

70
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: be there. It's going to be in the Apple Music app, okay.

71
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: And that is music that you've imported, which means you

72
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 1: rip CDs it'll still be there, or music that you purchased,

73
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: the playlists that you created will all still be there again.

74
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: They'll move to the Apple Music app. They will not

75
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: be in iTunes, They'll be in Apple Music. You have

76
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: an iTunes gift card that will still work, that will

77
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: still work on all the different platforms. That's not going away.

78
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: The iTunes store is not going away. iTunes credits not

79
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: going away. iTunes subscriptions you subscribe to something through iTunes

80
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: not going away. The backup, the restore, the sinking, all

81
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: that stuff is moving to Finder. Like I mentioned, movies

82
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: and TV shows that you rented or purchased will now

83
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: be in the Apple TV app. And this is really

84
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: confusing because Apple has Apple TV, then they have the

85
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: Apple TV app, which I find will be really weird

86
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,839
Speaker 1: because are you talking about Apple TV, Are you talking

87
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: about the you know that the TV app, the little

88
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: app that's on your iPhone and on your Apple TV.

89
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: It's so weird.

90
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: Which I never use.

91
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: Well, they want you to use it more.

92
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 2: What about Apple TV plus, that's just going to be there, That's.

93
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: Going to be inside the Apple TV app. Got it, Okay,

94
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: So that's there. Now here's one thing that is changing,

95
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: it seems. It seems according to this support document that

96
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: Apple put out that you will no longer be able

97
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: to purchase or rent movies and TV shows through iTunes

98
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: the iTunes store on your Mac. You will now have

99
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: to use the Apple TV app for Mac. So whatever it.

100
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: Basically you can still rent.

101
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 2: It makes sense.

102
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: If you're looking for stuff to watch, you go to

103
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: the TV app, right.

104
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 2: I always thought iTunes was like too much, too much

105
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 2: going on. You have just switched to like these different

106
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 2: toggles on the top to get to movies, to get

107
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: to music.

108
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: Like absolutely, this.

109
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 2: Actually is so much better and so much simpler for everyone.

110
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: I agree one hundred percent. Audiobooks will be in iTunes.

111
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: So what I'm saying, Megan, in also many words, is

112
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: that nothing's really changing, it's just the places you go

113
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: to access stuff. So again, now here's the one caveat

114
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: if you're on a Windows computer right now, iTunes is

115
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: staying the same, So they're not going to change it.

116
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: They're not splitting it up as of right now. Who

117
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: knows what's going to happen in the future, but right now,

118
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: if you're on Mac, yes, you're gonna have three new

119
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: apps when Catalina, the new Mac operating system, comes out

120
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: in September. Until then, everything's gonna be the same. And

121
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: then once things change, they'll still sort of be the same.

122
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: They'll just be doing things in different places. Now. One

123
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: thing that Apple did not really mention that I think

124
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: is the best about all this is that you will

125
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: now be able to plug in your iPhone. And I

126
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: mentioned I don't really plug in my iPhone, but I

127
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: might do this now. It will kind of act act.

128
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: Let me say that, right when you plug in your

129
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: iPhone on your computer, it will pretty much act as

130
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: a flash drive, so you can store documents on it.

131
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 1: You know, you have this iPhone with a whole bunch

132
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: of storage on it. A lot of my storage on

133
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: my phone is not used. If I can throw some

134
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: files on there and just use it as a flash drive,

135
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: that's kind of cool. So you'll be able to drag

136
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: and drop anything basically onto your iPhone, right cool.

137
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 2: One question about Catalina.

138
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: Sure. Will we have great island.

139
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: Great island, beautiful place?

140
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: Yes?

141
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 2: Will we have to pay for that or is it

142
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: just no, it's a free update.

143
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. It used to be used to have to pay

144
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: back in the day to.

145
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: Download the software and go pick up the disc from

146
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:31,559
Speaker 2: app the Apple Store.

147
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: Okay, back in the day, that was like I think

148
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: it was like twenty dollars to upgrade. Then they decided

149
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: to make it free. And on the iPhone back in

150
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: the day, I think it was five dollars to upgrade

151
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: your iPod Touch or whatever it was. It was like

152
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 1: five bucks for the new operating system. It's all gone away.

153
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: Now it's all free. The reason it's free is because

154
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: a security security wise, they want you to update and

155
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: new feature wise, like basically, the more they can update

156
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: and sell you stuff, the more you know, like on

157
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 1: the back end, right.

158
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: Better for them to have the latest software on.

159
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: Your Okay, all right, Megan, let's get a question on there.

160
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 2: Okay, So our first question comes from Larry Turner. The

161
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 2: subject is iPad. I need a new iPad? Should I

162
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 2: wait until September?

163
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: Ooh? So I will tell you the place I go

164
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: for anything Apple related that I need to know if

165
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna buy something. So now, my theory on Apple

166
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: products is you want to buy them as close to

167
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: the first day that they come out as possible. Why

168
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: do I say that because if you look at the

169
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: history of Apple products, they all get updated, whether it's

170
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: an iPod touch, while those take longer, whether it's an iPhone,

171
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: it comes out like clockwork. Every year. MacBooks get updated,

172
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 1: the iPads get updated. So if you're buying it on

173
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: the first day, to me, you're getting the full use

174
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: of that price that you're paying until the price drops

175
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: when they launch the new product, because generally when they

176
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: launch the new product, the prices come down. So there's

177
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: two ways of looking at this. To me, if I'm

178
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: paying five hundred dollars for a new iPad, to me,

179
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: I want to get the maximum use out of that iPad,

180
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: like the day it's fresh and available. To me, that

181
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars, I'm dividing that by how many days

182
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: I'm using it, right or how many years. Or you

183
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: can look at it second way, and you can always

184
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: buy things the day the new one comes out, because

185
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: you're going to get a discount on the old one, right,

186
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: So you can buy the old one and get the

187
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: cheaper one. But my point is, what's the person's same again,

188
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: Larry Larry always look at Buyer's Guide dot MacRumors dot com,

189
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: Buyer's Guide dot MacRumors dot com. What they do is

190
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: they give you a very simple way of knowing how

191
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: long it's been since an Apple product came out. So

192
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: right now I'm looking iPhone ten s. They're saying caution

193
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: because the new one's coming out in September. So they're like,

194
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: if you buy that right now at full price, you've

195
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: gone six months of that price. You know, you could

196
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: have gotten six more months of use out of that.

197
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: This makes sense. It's kind of this weird thing.

198
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I've been doing it backwards.

199
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: You buy it later.

200
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I bought my Iphoney Plus like six months

201
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: after it came out, right, But it's always around the

202
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: same time of year.

203
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: So that's fine. You're in that middle cycle and hopefully

204
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: you get a deal now. iPad air right now, iPad

205
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: pro is neutral, iPad pro as neutral, yeah, iPad pro,

206
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: iPad air by now, and iPad MANI buy now, iPad

207
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: don't buy. So if you're looking at the standard iPad

208
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: it's been four hundred and thirty six days since they

209
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: released a new one. The average is five eighty three,

210
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: which means you only have one hundred days of use

211
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: before the price drops. You see how I'm figuring this out.

212
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: So anyway, Larry great resource. It's the Mac Rumors Buyer's Guide.

213
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: I always consult it and for me personally, like I

214
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: like to buy stuff the day it comes out, because

215
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: like my kid's iPad minis, I bought them literally the

216
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: first week they're out because I was like, okay, and

217
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: it's been three years, so we've gotten a lot of

218
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: good use. Now. If you look at the iPad Mini,

219
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: it was just updated recently, it's only been eighty days.

220
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: Before that, it's been three hundred ninety days, and so

221
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: I had it for three hundred and ninety days of

222
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: basically I paid full price, but divide it by three

223
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: ninety and now it's a pretty good deal.

224
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, So he should if he wants the new iPad,

225
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 2: he should wait until it comes out.

226
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: It depends on the iPad he wants. If it's the

227
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: iPad Pro, it's neutral. You can make your own decision,

228
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: iPad Air or Mini. Buy him right now. iPad don't

229
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: buy got it? All right? Cool? Great question. Okay, let's

230
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: talk about some of the new features coming to the iPhone.

231
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: So I talked about WWDC. iOS thirteen is the new

232
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: version of the operating system. And if you know me, well,

233
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: you know that I wrote a book on iOS twelve,

234
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 1: which was one hundred and one handy tech tips for

235
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: the iPhone.

236
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 2: Yeah you did.

237
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: They should have a buyer's guide for that because that's

238
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: about to sunset. Because when the new software comes out,

239
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: a lot of the things will still work. But it's like, rich,

240
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: you need a new book, right, So I'm thinking about

241
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: writing the new version, which I probably will. So main

242
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: features I'll just go through quickly dramatic new look dark mode,

243
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: which kind of fun. Yeah, I mean it's just kind

244
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: of fun to have a.

245
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 2: Different you're going to use that?

246
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'll put it on schedule so i'll have

247
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 1: it go. I'll have it go on automatically at sunset

248
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: and off at sunrise, so yeah, which will give me

249
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: like maybe five minutes of use because I go to

250
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: sleep before the sunsets most nights. Okay, face ID is

251
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: going to be faster, thirty percent faster to unlock. Now

252
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: you don't have face Idea on your iPhone, but I do,

253
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: and it is noticeably amazing, but it's also noticeably slow.

254
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: Like I could definitely take the thirty percent improvement and

255
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: really be happy with that. The operating system itself is

256
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: faster and more responsive, the apps are smaller. Photos is

257
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: totally going to change to help you curate your pictures

258
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: in better ways. Apple Maps, which you use right, Yes,

259
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: I don't, I know, but it's been getting better and

260
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,839
Speaker 1: Apple says they drove four million miles to completely rebuild

261
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 1: the database, so it is getting a lot better. Personally,

262
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: Google has the market on this. They really know what

263
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: they're doing and it's very smart. So except for CarPlay,

264
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: which used to only be maps, now it supports Google Maps,

265
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: I pretty much do not have a use for maps

266
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 1: in my life. So the new maps, though, will be better.

267
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: It's going to roll out to the entire US by

268
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: the end of twenty nineteen, and basically there's more detail

269
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: on the maps. So it's pretty dramatic the level of

270
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: detail that Apple has been able to build into maps

271
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: compared to when it first launched, and it has been

272
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: getting better over time. Let's see what else they also

273
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: have This new look around View, which is basically street view.

274
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,839
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with that on Google? Yes, So it's

275
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: basically now Apple has their own version. So in a nutshell,

276
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: Apple has been doing a really good job with maps.

277
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: Will it be enough to get people to try to

278
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: go back to it? Probably not to me. The people

279
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,199
Speaker 1: that use maps are people that don't understand that it's

280
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: not Google Maps, don't really care, or don't really navigate

281
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: that much like you. I don't know if you navigate.

282
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: I navigate a lot, and I'm always like using Google

283
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: Maps to like see exact times to get places and

284
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: go places. If you're not using that, it's not that

285
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: bad of a deal, you know.

286
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I use Google Maps on my computer and then

287
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 2: I use Maps on my phone.

288
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: Gosh what it's just how you do it, how I

289
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: do it. Messages, I'm very excited about this feature. So

290
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: I Message is kind of the de facto messaging app

291
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 1: in America. It will now let you set a username

292
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: and profile photo, which is a small thing, but it's

293
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: so cool because if you look in your list of messages,

294
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: you know, I've got pictures. One that really bothers me.

295
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 1: My agent shows up as a picture of his dog,

296
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: and I have no idea where that picture is being

297
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: pulled from. And it's really annoying because like I want

298
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 1: him to look like him right right, and I can

299
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: go through and change it manually. But who does that, right?

300
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: I mean sometimes I do. Yeah, I've done that. It

301
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: takes a lot of time effort. So anyway, so you

302
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: can on your end, on your phone, you can set

303
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: how Megan looks to other people when you I message them. Interesting,

304
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: that's really fun.

305
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 2: That is fun.

306
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: Siri has a new voice. She's going to be more

307
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 1: natural sounding and also one hundred percent computer synthesized. So

308
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: they used to put actors in a voice booth ask

309
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: them to say a thousand million different little terms like

310
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: turn right, turn left, or they'd say turn and then

311
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: you go right, left, up, down, around, and then Siri

312
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: would blend those things together. Now she's one hundred percent

313
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: made by a computer.

314
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 2: So voice is made by a computer, it's not humans. Yeah,

315
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 2: that's crazy.

316
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: And she sounds pretty good because they showed a little

317
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: demo and she sounds great. Car Play is getting its newest,

318
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: its biggest update ever. It's getting a whole new dashboard.

319
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: I love car Play. I think it's the best Google

320
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: for their side of things is actually updating Android Auto

321
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: as well, So it's clear that we need an evolution

322
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: with these two systems that I really love. I mean,

323
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: I think I love car Play, I love Android Auto.

324
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: So again car Play is getting an update, and Siri

325
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: is now going to support third party navigation and audio apps,

326
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: which is huge because again, Apple Music, why do I

327
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: love it? Because Siri works with it. So if Siri

328
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: was to work with Spotify, maybe I'd take another look

329
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: at that, right, even though I think Apple Music is better.

330
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: QuickPath is the iOS keyboard is getting swiped to type,

331
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: which I know is a small thing, and again you

332
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: can get it with third party apps, but why if

333
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: you can get it on the regular keyboard, that's fine.

334
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: And Files will now let you access external storage devices

335
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: like SD cards and USB flash drive, so you will

336
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: be able to plug a USB flash drive into your

337
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: iPhone and it will be able to see the files

338
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: on there, which is something that's never been done before.

339
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: That will also work on the iPad, which is really cool.

340
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: So a lot of new features. iOS thirteen is going

341
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: to be a big one. I got to start writing.

342
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: That book, Yes you do. That's exciting. All right, Megan, Okay,

343
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 2: so this I thought this was kind of a funny transition.

344
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: This next comment comes from John Nielsen and the subject

345
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 2: is android phones. He says, all you seem to talk

346
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 2: about is Apple phone. How about something for the millions

347
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 2: of Android users who don't care what Apple is doing.

348
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: Oh, I love the irony that you do that, Like

349
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: all afin just talked about Apple.

350
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 2: But the reason why I think we had just gone

351
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 2: to like we've gone to so many Android events in

352
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 2: the last few weeks. I just think it's funny because

353
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 2: it sounds like he just catches you at the wrong time.

354
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: Right, or he gets really annoyed when I talk about Apple.

355
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, you know me, Well, yes, am

356
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: I an Apple fanboy? No? Right, you're so.

357
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 2: He rich changes his phone Like every month he'll go

358
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 2: back to an Android and he'll say how much he

359
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: loves it, and then he'll get bored of it and

360
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: he'll go back like he switches it up. So I

361
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: just think it's funny that this person thinks he's a fan.

362
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: Boy, right, And so it's fine. And this is the

363
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: joke among all tech folks is that if you talk

364
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: about Apple, you're paid by Apple, and you're an Apple

365
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: fanboy and you're an Apple lover, you talk about Android.

366
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: Oh well, Google's paying you and Samsung's paying you. How

367
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: much you being paid by Samsung to talk about Samsung.

368
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 1: The reality is things come and go in waves. Last

369
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: month we had a bunch of Samsung news because we

370
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: had the Samsung event where we had the new Samsung phones,

371
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: and then we had the new Galaxy Fold and I

372
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: talked about that. Then we had the one Plus, which

373
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: is the Android phone. I went to that event in

374
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: New York. By the way, flew there to go there

375
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: because I wanted to out of the kindness of my heart,

376
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: even though they paid thank you, one Plus. But my

377
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 1: point is I wanted to be there because I love

378
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: what one plus is doing, and I love Android, and

379
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 1: I appreciate Android, and I also appreciate what Apple's doing.

380
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: And yes, I do switch my phones up a lot,

381
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: like a lot of tech people, and I do try

382
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: things out. There's a lot of things that iPhone does

383
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: that's really good. There's a lot of things that Android

384
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: does that's really good. So I'll direct you to some

385
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: of my coverage, but I talked about a lot of

386
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: Android stuff in the past month. But again this is

387
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: Apple's week. They're having their Worldwide Developers Conference. Of course,

388
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: somebody talking about Apple a lot. And speaking of Apple,

389
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:39,239
Speaker 1: let's talk about the Apple Watch because at WWDC they

390
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: also talked about what's going to be new for the

391
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 1: Apple Watch. And I'll just go over some of the features.

392
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: Apple Watch, by the way, one percent the best wearable

393
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: out there today. There is nothing better. I know you

394
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: want one so badly. The Apple Watch is just quite

395
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: simply amazing. And I'll be honest. When I go to

396
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: Android and I use my Android device, the thing I

397
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: missed the most is my Apple Watch because I love

398
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: the health functions. There's just so many little things that

399
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: I do on it. When I go for a run

400
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: in the afternoon, I sit there, I pop in my AirPods.

401
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 1: I literally just walk out the door. I don't need

402
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: anything except my key to my house because I have

403
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: music on my watch. I can stream music on my watch.

404
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: I have cellular on my watch, which means if I

405
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 1: need to make a phone call or if someone needs

406
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: to get a hold of me while I'm running, I

407
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: can do that. I have GPS, all these analytics. It

408
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: all drives back to my health app, which means I

409
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: can see exactly, you know, how many calories I've burned,

410
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 1: or what I'm doing or how you know my move

411
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: for the day. It's amazing and so Apple Watch is

412
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: continually getting better. A couple of new features in Watch

413
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: os six, by the way, is first off, they have

414
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: a new cycle tracking app for women, so something you know,

415
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 1: I'm not personally excited about, but you know, I think

416
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: it's very good for women. Yeah, I think that's awesome.

417
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: There's a new noise app, and the noise app will

418
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: actually alert you if you're in an environment that's for

419
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: your hearing. So if you're at a concert or you're

420
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: construction worker, it will tell you, Hey, you know what,

421
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: It'll give you hints, just like it does for your fitness,

422
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: like hey, by the way, you should probably stand up

423
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,239
Speaker 1: and you know, move around a little bit. Hey, by

424
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: the way, if you're in this place for four hours

425
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 1: the way you're listening to this music at this at

426
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: this loudness, it's going to mess up your ears. So

427
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: isn't that smart?

428
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really smart.

429
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: And so it's just kind of stuff like that that's

430
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: just brilliant. For the first time ever, there's gonna be

431
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: an app store directly on the Apple Watch, which means

432
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:29,919
Speaker 1: you think about an app that you want, you can

433
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: download it right to your watch without your phone being nearby. Yeah,

434
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: obviously you'll need Wi Fi or cellular for that to happen.

435
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: There's new watch faces. There's an API to stream music,

436
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: so right now the only music you can stream or

437
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: the only audio you can stream on the Apple Watch

438
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 1: is through Apple Music. Well, they're opening up their API

439
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: so now others can do the same. So they showed

440
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: the example of a Major League Baseball game, which total

441
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: yawner for me, But I'm sure some people like that.

442
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: But I have a baseball is really fun in person,

443
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: but to watch a baseball game on TV.

444
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 2: I totally agree.

445
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, I know any any sport is

446
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: fun in person, some are more fun on TV. Voice

447
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: Memos app is now available or will be available on

448
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: Apple Watch. Your audio books will be available. Uh, there's

449
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: a new calculator app which really appeals to the sixth

450
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: grade nerd in me that used to wear the Calculator watch.

451
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: That will be right on the on the watch and

452
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: it will help you do tips and split bills right

453
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: from your wrist. So that's kind of cool. If you're

454
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: at a restaurant you got six friends, you all want

455
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: to split the bill, or like when Lindsay and I

456
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: go out for dinner, like we always split the bill.

457
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 1: So oh still.

458
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that. Oh. I was like, okay, no,

459
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 2: but that's okay if it was true, I think that

460
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 2: that's Uh.

461
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: Lindsay works very hard, so she she it's it's all equal.

462
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: In the Tomurro household, Siri will display full web page

463
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: results as well in the Apple Watch, so again, uh

464
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: and this, by the way, all these updates, I believe

465
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 1: we'll be going all the way back to the original

466
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 1: Apple Watch, like the first generation, which is pretty cmazy.

467
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: So okay, well, I think it's timed now to really

468
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: switch gears to this next question from Stanley Dent. He

469
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 2: wrote on your Facebook page. He said, Rich, your segments

470
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 2: are great. I have a question. My cousin gave me

471
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 2: his old Surface Pro, but for some reason kept the keyboard,

472
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 2: so I didn't know it was one hundred and fifty dollars,

473
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 2: but I went on Amazon and I saw one that

474
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 2: was sixty dollars. Should I get the Microsoft keyboard for

475
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 2: one fifty or should I go the cheap route, which

476
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 2: is sixty. Thanks keep up the great work.

477
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 1: It's a good question. And this is the thing that

478
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,959
Speaker 1: people kind of forget when they buy these little like

479
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: tablets that can become computers. And we talked about this

480
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,239
Speaker 1: in the last episode. I believe is that even when

481
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: you buy those things, you still have to purchase a

482
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: lot of accessories like a keyboard case, which are not cheap.

483
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 1: So he says, how much did you say it was

484
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: one hundred?

485
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 2: He said it was one fifty one to fifty, okay,

486
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 2: the actual So for the.

487
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: Official one, so I'm looking on Amazon, which okay, yeah,

488
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: it's like one thirty seven. Yeah, it depends on which

489
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,719
Speaker 1: one you get, so they can be up to one fifty.

490
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, go for the cheap one, Like why why

491
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: would you not? I mean it's not gonna be as

492
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 1: like as like made for the thing, but like, I'm

493
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 1: looking at this one. They have one for forty three dollars,

494
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: sixty dollars, that's probably the one he's looking at. The

495
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: sixty dollars one has great reviews, and why not? I

496
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: mean you can always return things on Amazon, like most

497
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: of the like ninetynine percent of the time free of charge,

498
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: So why would you not try the cheap o one.

499
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: Here's the deal. The reason I'm saying that is because

500
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: he's getting this as a hand me down to begin with.

501
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 1: So clearly this is something that he didn't invest his

502
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: own money in. So it's like he's gonna be fine

503
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: with something that's like this, the keyboard that's not the

504
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: official one, right, yeah, so this is kind of like

505
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 1: a bonus in his life, and so I think the

506
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: keyboard doesn't need to be super duper expensive. One thing

507
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 1: to look out for. By the way, when you're shopping

508
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: on Amazon, they have these new little tags. They're very controversial,

509
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: but they it's called Amazon's Choice.

510
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, doesn't that just mean Amazon wants you to

511
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 2: buy it?

512
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 1: It does. But here's the thing, this is why I

513
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 1: love it. Amazon in the background is using big data

514
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 1: to figure out where to put that tag. It's not

515
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: just on the product that they think like they want

516
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: to push. They're using return data. They're using customer purchase data.

517
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: So let's say that the most popular Let's say you're

518
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 1: buying a I don't know, let's say you're buying a

519
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: case for the iPad, right, and they notice that the cheapest.

520
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: You could put a case on there for seven bucks, right,

521
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: and a million people are gonna buy it, right because

522
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 1: it comes up super cheap. You're like, oh seven bucks okay, Well,

523
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: next thing, you know, everyone starts returning that case. Amazon

524
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: doesn't want to recommend that case because guess what, it

525
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: actually costs them more to keep selling that case. So

526
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: Amazon's choice is gonna be the case that is fifteen

527
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: ninety nine that they notice that people buy but actually

528
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: you really like and they give it higher reviews. Yeah,

529
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: So that's what Amazon's choice means. They're using all this data.

530
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 1: They don't explain exactly what the data is behind it,

531
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 1: but from what I've pieced together, that's what they're doing.

532
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 2: Well, I was just checking to see the I just

533
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: got a phone case and I bought it on Amazon,

534
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 2: but I didn't like I got a cheap case.

535
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I was.

536
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 2: Curious because normally I look at the choice thing and

537
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 2: I always thought it was a push. But I did

538
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 2: actually buy the Amazon's choice case, which was like twelve dollars.

539
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: And are you happy with it?

540
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:31,199
Speaker 2: I love it?

541
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: See, And that's what.

542
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 2: I'm saying, Like, it's fine, let me say, it's just

543
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 2: like a simple rippy.

544
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: It's kind of like the it's like the Apple silicone case,

545
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: but it's it's like a cheaper version. And it's because

546
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: the Apple will be like fifty bucks or forty bucks whatever.

547
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: This is like how much twelve ninety nine, twelve ninety Yeah,

548
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: and it's perfect and it feels great. So again, look

549
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 1: for those Amazon Amazon Choice cues. You don't necessarily have

550
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 1: to buy that, but it definitely helps. And I know

551
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 1: they're controversial because people are saying, well, Amazon's just pushing

552
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: the stuff like you were saying.

553
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 2: That they want to and they actually but they were right.

554
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: It's a sales tactic, but it works to me. It's

555
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: helping you, and they are using big data and it's

556
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure they continue to tweak it, but again, just

557
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 1: look for these little these little cues. All right, I

558
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: know we got a lot of Apple stuff, but I'm

559
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: gonna keep going through it because there is a lot

560
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: of Apple stuff this week. So let's talk about the

561
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: new mac os Catalina. This is the new desktop operating

562
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: system for your Mac. I love the fact that it

563
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 1: is named after Catalina Island, which is just off the

564
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: coast of Los Angeles. If you have not been, definitely

565
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: take a visit. So when I first met my wife, Lindsay,

566
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: her family would go every year for Fourth of July.

567
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:37,719
Speaker 1: So I went many years when I first met her.

568
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 1: I have very fond memories of going there because I

569
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 1: never I was from New Jersey. Well I'm still am,

570
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 1: but to go to this tiny little island that her

571
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: family was like they always just rent a house for

572
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: the summer for like a week or whatever, and we'd

573
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: all go and it was just I have some great

574
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: memories from there. And so I personally love Catalina. I

575
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: love the fact that they named it after that. But

576
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 1: again Catalina. The things you need to know two things.

577
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 1: Number one, this is what's going to happen with iTunes

578
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: when it's going to be split up. The second thing,

579
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 1: and the feature I'm very excited about, is called sidecar,

580
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: and this will enable you to use a iPad as

581
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 1: a second display on your computer. So for me, I

582
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: have my computer, my little laptop and a lot of

583
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 1: times I'm editing video. I think it'd be so cool

584
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: to have like I message or my email up on

585
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: a secondary screen. And you can do this with an

586
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 1: app right now called Duet duet and I think it's

587
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: a fifteen dollars app but it's called duet display, and

588
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 1: so I've used that before. You plug in your iPad

589
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,880
Speaker 1: and it becomes a secondary display. Wasn't perfect. I think

590
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 1: Apples is probably gonna be a little bit better than

591
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: what they're doing. But again, well they say zero lag,

592
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,479
Speaker 1: so maybe it does work perfectly. I used it when

593
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: it first came out. But yeah, I mean that's kind

594
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: of cool. I like that.

595
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 2: So you would get like I mean, depending on where

596
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 2: your computer is, you could get like something to hold

597
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 2: your iPad.

598
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: Well, okay, so funny you say that I saw. So

599
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: you can get a little stand, you know, like a

600
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: little kind of tripod for your iPod or tripod for

601
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: your tripod for your iPad, so you can get that

602
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: on the iPod. Yeah. I love how my brain like

603
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 1: just rhymed it because I'm so used to reading like

604
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: kids books at night that like, yeah, my brain is

605
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: like Doctor Seuss. You can get a tripod for your iPod.

606
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: And there's a redfish, bluefish, green fish, yellowfish. But the

607
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: other thing I saw when I was at WWDC, someone

608
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: was already using the secondary screen. I think they just

609
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: used it with duet maybe, but they had a clip

610
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 1: that somehow clipped to their MacBook screen and then the

611
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: other side of it clipped to their iPad, so their

612
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: iPad was actually just hanging off their screen. So I

613
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: thought looked kind of dangerous because it's a clip that

614
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: clips to your screen and seemed kind of dicey. But yeah, anyway, interesting,

615
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: and then let's talk about tvOS. This is what powers

616
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: Apple TV. The things you need to know about that

617
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,159
Speaker 1: is you're getting a new home screen that I am

618
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 1: very much against because it has one of my least

619
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 1: favorite features of Netflix. Oh no, what do you think

620
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: that is? When you're scrolling through looking for something to watch, what.

621
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 2: Happens, Well, it gives you the percent.

622
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: No things start auto playing. Oh I hate that and

623
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: I cannot stand It's so annoying. So that's going to

624
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 1: now come to Apple TV. And I get why they

625
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: do it because they want to sell you on a show.

626
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: Like if you watch it, if you look at a show,

627
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: what do you get? You get a title and a

628
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: thumbnail And ninety nine percent of the time there are

629
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: all these shows you've never seen a word about.

630
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:22,199
Speaker 2: They have to do that.

631
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: They have to do it because they want to show

632
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: you what the show is and you're right, oh my god,

633
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: that's a murder mystery. Oh my gosh, I need to

634
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: watch that. Yeah. They're also getting multi user support so

635
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 1: when you're watching on the Apple TV, you can, you know,

636
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: everyone could has their own kind of personalized recommendations. And

637
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 1: they're getting new four k HDR screensavers that were filmed

638
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: under the c So you know, people love these screensavers

639
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: on Apple TV because they're so beautiful and I like

640
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: to have my own pictures.

641
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 2: But yeah, I was thinking of like my desktop background.

642
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we do a good job. People love backgrounds.

643
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

644
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: And finally enough with the Apple News. But I'll give

645
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: you one more thing that I'm personally very excited about

646
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: is that on iOS thirteen, you will be able to

647
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: ask Siri to play over one hundred thousand live radio stations,

648
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: so basically all the radio stations from iHeartRadio, tune In,

649
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: and radio dot com, which is all the CBS stations.

650
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: So if there's a radio station that you like, you

651
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: can ask Sirira to play it without third party software.

652
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: Right now, if you say, like, you know, play one

653
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: on two seven KISSFM, you may have to go it

654
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 1: may open iHeartRadio or whatever. This will just play it natively,

655
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: which is a small but very interesting feature because of

656
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: the fact that now it's just kind of you can

657
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: see radio stations almost like promoting the fact of like, hey,

658
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 1: just ask Siri to play us. Yeah, you know, and

659
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: you can do this on Google Assistant right now, like

660
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: on Google Home they already do that, but this on

661
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,479
Speaker 1: Siri is kind of big because right now, as far

662
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: as I know, the only thing she does is like

663
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: basically CBS News and Beats one, so you know, you're

664
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: kind of limited. But the fact that you can just say, hey,

665
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: play one on two seven KISSFM or KFI AM six

666
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: forty or Z one hundred or whatever station you can

667
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: think of, that's kind of cool. And it's very powerful

668
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: for in the car because as more people use CarPlay,

669
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: you can just pull up the station that you want.

670
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 1: Radio stations sort of have a fighting chance of competing

671
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: with all the other stuff.

672
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 2: This is good for radio. Yeah, for sure, I love that.

673
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 2: That's really cute. Okay, so my next question is from Mike,

674
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 2: and it's about the Samsung eight plus update. My phone

675
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 2: updated itself yesterday and I hate it. I'm afraid The

676
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 2: answer is no. But is there any way to reverse

677
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 2: this improvement and go back to a phone I know

678
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 2: how to use. I always watch your spout on keytla

679
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 2: and follow you on Facebook.

680
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: NOPs, Mike answers. No, Mike, I'm just gonna go right

681
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: through this one. Let's just take another question, because no.

682
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: The thing is, these phone manufacturers they change things up.

683
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: You got the one UI update. There's no way to

684
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: go back easily. And my advice is that you will

685
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: get used to it. As someone who tests a bazillion phones,

686
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: and you know, I go from phone to phone and

687
00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: I see what they do and what they don't do,

688
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: you'll get used to it. Mike. I know it's it's tough,

689
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: and it's unfortunate, and yes, some features do go away,

690
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: but there's really no way around it. It's kind of

691
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: the evolution of things. All right, One more questions.

692
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna ask you another.

693
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: Question, shorty, it's very short.

694
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 2: Yes, it's I'm gonna get a similar response from you.

695
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 2: This is from Norma and the subject is annoying group text?

696
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 2: How can you remove yourself from group text messages on

697
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 2: an iPhone?

698
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: There's not a way I know to do that. So

699
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: I tried to remove myself from my I'm on my

700
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: family's group text, which is pretty amazing. It's like, you know,

701
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: when they start texting, it's like it's like rapid fire. So,

702
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: as far as I know, if you go into like

703
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: the info, you know, you can tap at the top.

704
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: I don't see a way of removing yourself. Oh you

705
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: see it.

706
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm sorry. I have a group text open. So

707
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 2: if you click on the info at the top of

708
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 2: a group text, you see you can add a contact.

709
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 2: But if you keep going down, it says leave this conversation.

710
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: Oh what hold on? So see, why don't we have that?

711
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: I don't have that, see, so I think it's only

712
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: if everyone is on I message. That's what it is.

713
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: That's the difference. See, because I've got a mix of

714
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: I message and not I message. Oh interesting, So let

715
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: me go to a conversation with you and Louis because

716
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: we're both or here's a message. Here's a conversation with

717
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: all three of us on I message. Yes, and yes,

718
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: you can leave.

719
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 2: And by the way, when you leave, it will say

720
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 2: that you left left. So I'm just saying that because

721
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like people get offended. I

722
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 2: think the best way to do to handle something like

723
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,239
Speaker 2: that if you are sick of getting alerts, is just

724
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 2: to hide the alert.

725
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: So swipe from right to left on the message in

726
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 1: the message pain like on the list of messages, swipe

727
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: right to left, and it will say hide alerts. And

728
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: if you delete it, it doesn't it just comes back

729
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: when the next message comes back. So hide alerts will

730
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 1: give you the option to hide for basically indefinitely. It

731
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: kind of silences that. But again, if they're all on

732
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: I message, see I learned something new today, you can leave.

733
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: And if they're all I message they're not, then you're

734
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: kind of screwed.

735
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 2: So sorry.

736
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the way it works. Okay, Megan, I think

737
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna love this. And I love it and I'm

738
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: not even into fashion, and I love this. This is

739
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: like the dream of kind of what we've wanted from

740
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: the internet for so long. Okay, this is something new

741
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: from Amazon. It's called style Snap and so what it

742
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: is is you take a picture of what someone's wearing

743
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: and it will search for that similar visually looking outfit

744
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: on Amazon.

745
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 2: I love it already.

746
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: Isn't this amazing? I tried it. So I upload a

747
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: picture of myself wearing a T shirt and it found

748
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 1: just like a bunch of T shirts, so it didn't

749
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: find the exact style I was wearing. But yeah, it's

750
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: really cool. It's inside and it's already there. It's inside

751
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: the Amazon app. If you go in the Amazon app,

752
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: click the camera icon in the upper right hand corner

753
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: of the app, and then at the bottom you'll see

754
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of options, just like you do on Instagram,

755
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: where you swipe between the options. This one is called

756
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: style snap. You open that up and then here's the thing.

757
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: You can either upload a picture, take a picture, or

758
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 1: you can upload a screenshot. And let me explain why

759
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: the screenshot is so important. I know why.

760
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 2: Why because if you screenshot something from Pinterest that you like,

761
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 2: drag it because I was like, what if I see

762
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 2: something whoops?

763
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,280
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, that is exactly And here's not just Pinterest,

764
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: Instagram influencers, right, this is all about And here's why

765
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: I love this, even though I'm not a fashion person.

766
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: It's just amazing because how easy is it. You like

767
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 1: what someone's wearing and you want to get the same

768
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: or similar looking thing, and you can find on Amazon

769
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: and buy it within like two seconds. So this is

770
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: something that's been a long time coming. It's kind of

771
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:44,399
Speaker 1: like the dream of all shopping. Yes, right, you see

772
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: something you like at someone's house, a light, a magnet,

773
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 1: whatever on a white see a magnet but whatever.

774
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not just for clothes. Well, this I think

775
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 2: is just okay because I was going to say, you're

776
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 2: talking about lamps.

777
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: But they have this like Wayfair has something like that.

778
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 1: You know, like all these apps have like similar things.

779
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 1: I think they work to different extents, but this is amazing.

780
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 1: So again, it's called style Snap and basically what people

781
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: are gonna do is they're gonna screenshot their favorite instagrammers

782
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 1: wearing whatever outfit they're wearing and then upload it to

783
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: Amazon and purchase it. So I think that's brilliant by Amazon.

784
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,160
Speaker 2: I don't buy clothes on Amazon, though.

785
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: Well, this is the reason this will miss Megan. This

786
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: is what will make you buy clothes on Amazon. This

787
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 1: is why I don't buy a lot of clothes on

788
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: Amazon either. But I would gladly if I could figure out.

789
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: Clothes are a little tricky because once I have my sizes,

790
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 1: I like to go to the same place, which is

791
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 1: Gap H and M and Old Navy in Wondering and Banana. Yeah,

792
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 1: there's a lot of Gap family there. I'm like the

793
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: boringest person when it comes to clothes.

794
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 2: I'm surprised you didn't say Ja Crew.

795
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: No. I worked there for one day and I had

796
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: to buy all their stuff to like work there, and

797
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: then I never worked there again. But A Crew's too

798
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: expensive for me. Banana Republican is now they always have

799
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: like forty fifty percent off, except for the jeans I like,

800
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: which never go on sale. Oh the travelers.

801
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 2: Got it all right. So this next message is from

802
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 2: ad Montenegro on your Facebook page. He wrote, Hey, Rich,

803
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 2: I currently have Verizon, but I feel like I'm overpaying

804
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,399
Speaker 2: for three lines. I do have reception everywhere I go,

805
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 2: But is there any other network out there with the

806
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 2: reliability like Verizon but less expensive.

807
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: This is a fantastic question, And you know what my

808
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: answer is going to be because this was one of

809
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: the first stories that you did here when you joined.

810
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 2: Oh I no, yeah, I know.

811
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: But I will tell you the best service if you

812
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: want to switch from Verizon is to switch to Verizon

813
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: Verizon's Visible that is and Visible is Verizon's sort of

814
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 1: secret prepaid plan, and it's kind of I guess this.

815
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: I don't even know if you call prepaid. It's just

816
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 1: I don't even know why they're doing this, but it's

817
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: so smart. It's kind of underground. It's forty dollars a

818
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 1: month for the same exact Verizon network, Okay, and it

819
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: is amazing. You're going to get this same features that

820
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: you have pretty much. Some things change, you know, there

821
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: are you know, like internationally, you're not going to get

822
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: international calling, but that's you know, like not many people

823
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: need that, right, But you're gonna get the same network.

824
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 1: It's gonna be high quality, it's gonna work in all

825
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 1: the same places. If you have an iPhone. He didn't

826
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 1: mention what phone he has, but if he has an iPhone,

827
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 1: you just pop their SIM card in the new Visible

828
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: sim card. And the difference is that you have to

829
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: sign up online. There's no stores, so they're saving money

830
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,880
Speaker 1: in these different little ways. But the customer service is fantastic.

831
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: We did a big story with Visible when I heard

832
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,839
Speaker 1: about them, and I couldn't believe that this was like

833
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: a thing, and so I'm telling you it was one

834
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 1: of the most popular stories of twenty eighteen because and

835
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 1: I actually talked to a guy today who we're going

836
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: to do a follow up with who switched because of

837
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: my story, and he saved like over like one hundred

838
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 1: dollars a month and he loves it and he said

839
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 1: it's fantastic.

840
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 2: Isn't there a new update? Though? With Visible?

841
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 1: There will be it's the it's on the DL. Yeah,

842
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 1: so there will be some changes that I can't talk

843
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: about just yet. But I think if you're a subscriber

844
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: or you're thinking of subscribing the subscribing, you will like

845
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: it Visible. I'm telling you. It's like I'm if I

846
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: was a CEO of Verizon, I'm like, wait, you're like

847
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: eating our young Like why are you letting us? Like why?

848
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 1: But again, people are switching from Verizon to Verizon, so

849
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: it's probably fine, yeah, but still pretty amazing. Anyway, check

850
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: out Visible, and I think you will really like it.

851
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: Something else to check out is Spotify's new app called Stations.

852
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: And this is Spotify's answer to Pandora. So and you

853
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: might be wondering, well, why do I need that if

854
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 1: I have Pandora, Well it's Spotify. I mean you could

855
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 1: try something new, right, So and I think Spotify might

856
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,800
Speaker 1: have more music than Pandora, like actual more songs in

857
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: their library. I don't know that for a fact, but

858
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 1: I think they do. So. Spotify Stations is this new app.

859
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: It's a brand new app that just launched in the

860
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: US on iOS and Android. It's a lightweight app and

861
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: it's so simple, Megan, you've tried it. Yeah, you download it,

862
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 1: you open it up, you sign in if you have

863
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: a Spotify account. If you don't, you create one, and

864
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: next thing you know, it is playing music. It's got

865
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: some stations that are already kind of pre populates based

866
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 1: on your previous profile. If not, you can go through

867
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 1: you can choose an artist and it kicks off with

868
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: that and starts a station just like Pandora. Or you

869
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 1: can search through genres and start a station just like Pandora.

870
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 1: And the thing is, when you open up the app,

871
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: it just starts streaming.

872
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot cleaner looking than Pandora. And I

873
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 2: think lightweight is actually the perfect word to describe it

874
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 2: as fun colors.

875
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 1: But it's so simple, so simple, and you will hear ads.

876
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: If you're a free user, you will be able to

877
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 1: thumbs up and thumbs down songs. You can skip up

878
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 1: to six an hour, just like Pandora, and if you

879
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: are a Spotify Premium subscriber, you will get which you are,

880
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: you'll get the full experience, which means no ads and

881
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: unlimited skips. So why would you want to use this

882
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 1: if you're a Spotify Premium Well, because ninety nine percent

883
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: of the time when I open up Spotify when I

884
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: was a subscriber, what did I do? I just started

885
00:39:59,560 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: a playlist?

886
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's overwhelming to pick, like what song am

887
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 2: I gonna? I'm yeah, I love I love this.

888
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: And the UI is really cool because it's just it's

889
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: swipe up, swipe down to scroll through your stations. It's

890
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: just super You kind of have to download it see

891
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: what we're talking about, but it's very easy and it's

892
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 1: super simple. So Spotify calls this an experiment, so it

893
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 1: could go away at anytime. But I think in general

894
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: they're just trying to get Spotify can be intimidating because

895
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: and also I'm sure there's an element of people that

896
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: don't understand that Spotify has a free version inside the

897
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: main app, So they're probably appealing to people that search

898
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 1: for Spotify free and then this comes up and then

899
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: they open it up. They're like, Oh, that's exactly what

900
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: I wanted. It's just like Pandora, so and you don't

901
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: have it's just simple. Yeah. I don't think there's offline

902
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 1: though right now. So if you're on a plane, you

903
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't be able to use it. But maybe I'm wrong,

904
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: Maybe they do it. Yeah, test it tomorrow. Got another question. Yes,

905
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: this question is, Oh, this's got to be a really

906
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: quick question.

907
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,319
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, then I won't ask this one because it's

908
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 2: kind of long. Okay, This next question is from Sherry Cortes.

909
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 2: Subject is home WiFi. For the last month, my Spectrum

910
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 2: WiFi disconnects randomly on different devices smart TV, iPad, PlayStation four.

911
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 2: Some devices in the same room will be connected while

912
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 2: others are not. Spectrum did some over the phone troubleshooting,

913
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 2: but it didn't help. Since we now since we own

914
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 2: our own router ter router, we may get charged if

915
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 2: they come out to repair. How can I tell if

916
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 2: the problem is with our router or with the Spectrum service?

917
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,399
Speaker 2: Do you have any suggestions?

918
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,240
Speaker 1: Oh, this is kind of a tricky one because I'm

919
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to assume it's her router, it's her WiFi,

920
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: like it's Spectrum is providing the service to their house,

921
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,800
Speaker 1: and on their end, they can actually tell if the

922
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: signal is good, like if they're providing you a good signal,

923
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: and what happens to it once it dissipates through your

924
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: WiFi they can't control. And especially since she said she

925
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 1: owns the Wi Fi that's being popped out, like the

926
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 1: whatever router, either she bought it themselves or you know whatever,

927
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 1: Spectrum is gonna be like, uh, if we come over there,

928
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna charge you because it's not our built in

929
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 1: Wi Fi. I think if you pay them like five

930
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 1: bucks a month or whatever it is to like rent theirs,

931
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 1: then you know, maybe they would fix that for free

932
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: if you complain. But since it's her own, there's really

933
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,320
Speaker 1: nothing she can do or nothing Spectrum can do without charging.

934
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 1: That's understandable, right, because they Spectrum can't be held liable

935
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 1: for like the thousands of different Wi Fi routers that

936
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 1: are available. Right, my advice is to probably get a

937
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 1: mesh network system like euro or Google. I would probably

938
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,439
Speaker 1: in this case, I'd probably recommend Google Wi Fi because

939
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: it seems like she has a pretty simple setup just

940
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: need some better coverage. But I'd probably recommend Google Wi Fi.

941
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 1: Check it out. It's sold at Costco or net Gear Orb. Right,

942
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: those are the ones that we recommend, so check those out.

943
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: I think it's unfortunately it's probably a problem on your end. Also,

944
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: before you do any of that, just kind of move

945
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 1: your your Wi Fi. Whatever spits out your Wi Fi signal,

946
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: take that and physically move it to a higher place

947
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 1: in your room and make sure it's not blocked by anything.

948
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: A lot of times people with these in cabinets they

949
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 1: put them behind a TV or behind a picture frame.

950
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: Make sure it's out in the open and kind of

951
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,760
Speaker 1: on a higher level, and see if that helps dissipate

952
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: the signal, because Wi Fi signals are not very good

953
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: at moving around things.

954
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 2: Do you recommend putting Wi Fi like in the center

955
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 2: of your house.

956
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 1: Oh?

957
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And also if there's two stories.

958
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, get it as close to the center as

959
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 1: you can.

960
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, oh wow, we really need It's actually.

961
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 1: Almost it's actually almost better to put it on the

962
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 1: second floor because it can Wi Fi travels down like

963
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: it kind of falls down, it kind of goes out,

964
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 1: it emanates in almost like a donut. So if you

965
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: can think of it that way, you want it in

966
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 1: the center and you want it to fall down rather than.

967
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 2: Ryan definitely have the same problem machinery.

968
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: All right, that's going to do it for the show,

969
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 1: if you can believe it. We discussed a lot in

970
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,760
Speaker 1: today's show. I was I know, call me an Apple fanboy,

971
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,400
Speaker 1: but I had to get through all the Apple news.

972
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,319
Speaker 1: But I just want to say thanks for listening to

973
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 1: the show. Thanks to all of our new subscribers. I

974
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 1: did find a problem in our subscription feed that was

975
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: not going out to a lot of folks. So if

976
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 1: you're listening for the first time this week or last week,

977
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 1: thank you for being back on board. I did not

978
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,839
Speaker 1: abandon you. I just had a problem when we switch

979
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: providers and a lot of people didn't get the show

980
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 1: for a month. So I feel really bad about that.

981
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,800
Speaker 1: But you're all back on board at this point. Again,

982
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,160
