iOS 18

Oh, I see

It would be a medical device. It makes sense a regulator would sign that off, that’s what makes things safe!

I guess since it isn’t a drug, my brain didn’t click on, but yes they look after everything medical

It will. That’s why we’re one of the few countries not getting it.

For now, it could come later. This has happened for Apple Watch functions, so it could happen for the AirPods Pro functions.

It could, only if and once our regulators clear it for medical use.

Smartwatches do not (currently) meet the threshold for medical devices under UK law.

Think it just needs a CE mark here to be able to sell it.

I thought we were talking about AirPods Pro becoming clinical grade hearing aids and hearing protection?

Even if it is just a case of a CE mark, that alone delayed Apple Watch’s ECG and Afib detection features for us in the uk by several months following FDA approval.

So we were. My mistake!

is it me, or has Monzo not updated their logo for the iOS 18 Dark Icons feature? Still a dark (very dark) blue!

Doesn’t Apple do that?

Oh. I didn’t know that. I was under the impression that each app had to submit their own. Maybe you’re right!

I’m sure I read Apple was doing it by code but could be completely wrong :grimacing:

On device AI does it where they can (developers can opt out). Developers can also submit their own. Most indie apps I use have already done so.

An intern spends about two minutes on Monzo’s alt logos, so even though they can easily make one, they probably won’t.

The monzo pride logo is probably the ugliest bit of pride I ever seen.

I am seeing a lot of icon bugs with the RC, a lot of icons go white when in folders but switching icon modes can cause them to re-render.
This is on my daily driver so I have a fair few apps installed.

Is Siri not using vocal responses something new in iOS 18? Just noticed that responses were being written on the screen sometimes when they would be said out loud before.

On 18.1. There’s now a toggle which I don’t think existed before. Actually much nicer meaning she doesn’t always speak out.
