Preferably lesser known but game-changing apps that are able to be bought one-time and put all others to shame.

To help clarify your thinking, which apps have produced such an outrageous level of value (regardless of one-time cost) to the extent you believe it should be #1 in its category, not necessarily #1 app ever.

We'll do a seperate thread for Mac, Windows, Linux, Android, etc but let's stick to iOS for this one. Thanks Lemmings!

I will not, sir. I agree with you. Although I get why they don’t, at least on the big HomePods. Bluetooth audio quality sucks for such a nice speaker array.

They broke my fucking heart, lol. I was so ready to kick my Echo Dot to the curb but now I just use it as a glorified bluetooth speaker (What HomePod was supposed to be). There goes $150 I'm never getting back :(

I only bought HomePods but I’m fully Apple as far as devices and any non-Apple devices have apps that allow them to Airplay so the only use case where Bluetooth would be helpful is for guests. I haven’t had a single one that needed to do that, though, that also didn’t have an iPhone.

If the next revision adds BT, it would be perfect.

Agreed. I believe they will see the light. Just like MagSafe

[-] dpkonofa@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Mmmm… MagSafe ❤️

I am so glad it exists for phones now too.

Is it back on Macbooks again? Should have never dropped it

[-] dpkonofa@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It is. My black MBA has it and so does my work MBP.
