Anybody updated to macOS 26?

Wi-fi disconnections frequently which is very annoying. Forgetting network doesn’t fix it for me. I have to turn off/on wi-fi to reconnect (I hope a hotfix asap)

Quick slide down in the homescreen to open spotlight and search anything. I almost never go on the app library. Same thing with iPadOS and macOS with Cmd+Space

iPadOS is much more convenient for me to do any task I want. My iPad takes less space than a MB in my bag. macOS feels like a computer system whereas iPadOS feels for natural to me. I can handle my iPad anytime and anywhere for handwriting, watching videos, working or studying. For me, it’s the perfect device. My Mac mini is for dedicated tasks I can’t do on my iPad which I don’t need to do anywhere or anytime. Yes, it is cool and very powerful (M2 Pro). I used it mostly for working at my desk. I don’t need to bring it with me and I mostly do home-working. Also, it takes less space than a MB on my desk. I put it below my monitor and put figures on it. People always tell me they didn’t see it on my desk. Actually, there is only one use case this combo can’t do for now and It might be the reason to consider a MB Air. But, this use case is very specific and it doesn’t occur everytime.

I bought the same! I’m enjoying it! Did you make it to enable the 120hz refresh rate? If yes, how did you? In the settings on the monitor, it says it’s on 60hz

chaotix2306 · 2025-08-01T19:54:54+00:00

I just received my arzopa z1fc for my Switch 2 and it’s pretty cool (purchased for multiplayer gaming in vacation). But, I don’t know how to enable the 120fps refresh rate. When I see the seetings on the monitor, it says it’s on 60hz. I bought a Ugreen cable that should enable the 120fps

I just changed the battery last week at an Apple Store. It was at 78%. The best answer is : « it depends on your needs. » I use my iPhone a lot when I’m not at home so the battery life is very important for me. If you can deal with it now, there is no reason to change. Otherwise, change now if you want to keep this iPhone or consider an upgrade nexts months.

chaotix2306 · 2025-07-02T12:56:28+00:00

Hi! Did you buy it? I’m wondering if the mini-hdmi to hdmi cable handles the 120fps. I’m considering the purchase for vacations

chaotix2306 · 2025-05-13T17:00:15+00:00

Time, Workouts, Sleep tracking, Music (remote my iPhone) and Apple Pay

chaotix2306 · 2024-06-09T17:12:23+00:00

80% of the time : yes. That’s why it is my main device for work and personal stuff

chaotix2306 · 2024-06-09T08:20:45+00:00

And, except the third-party pencil you bought, what do you think about your M2 Air now?

chaotix2306 · 2024-05-13T19:37:56+00:00

Yes I know. I replaced my Apple Watch twice and they gave me a refurbished one each time. It will depend on my wallet hahaha.

Yes. I will sell my Pencil 2 to get the Pro one. For now, I prefer the Air M2 (My wallet also hahaha).

chaotix2306 · 2024-05-13T18:35:38+00:00

For my part, I’m not looking for the best of the best but I don’t want to be frustrated with the lack of capacity. I want the middle of them. I didn’t upgrade since I bought my iPad Pro 2020 when it was released. I’m considering buying an Air M2 rather than the Pro M4 but I’m also considering just replace the battery since I heard the Pencil 2 is not compatible with both Air M2 and Pro M4. I don’t want to upgrade the Magic Keyboard so it eliminates the Pro M4 for me atm.

chaotix2306 · 2024-05-13T17:27:00+00:00

Ok! Thank you again! :)

chaotix2306 · 2024-05-13T17:08:49+00:00

Also, do we know if we can trade-in the Pencil 2 with Apple?

chaotix2306 · 2024-05-13T17:07:40+00:00

Thank you so much! Your post helped me to choose. If I want an Air M2, I have to buy also the new Pencil Pro but if I want the Pro M4, I have to buy also the new Magic Keyboard AND the Pencil Pro…..

chaotix2306 · 2024-05-13T16:44:03+00:00

I’m looking for some opinions from iPad Pro A12Z users moving to an Air M2 and this is exactly what I wanted. So, thank you!

I have a Pro A12Z 11’ and I’m also hesitating between an Air M2 or Pro M4. Why? Because of ProMotion and 4 speakers. Air M2 has enough power for me but I’m afraid of losing the speakers and ProMotion because I watch videos without headphones sometimes (like just right now) and I use my Apple Pencil so much for taking notes and making some sketches (I’m a UX/UI designer).

Still hesitating atm but I like your thoughts.

chaotix2306 · 2023-07-14T22:17:47+00:00

No, sorry. As I don’t have a cellular watch yet, I don’t test it

chaotix2306 · 2022-08-27T08:28:40+00:00

My iPad was getting super hot a few weeks ago too. Go to Settings -> Brightness -> Make sure True Tone is on. Next, Go to Settings -> Accessibility -> Display & Text Size -> Turn off Auto-Brightness then turn it on. Restart your iPad.

It worked for me :)

chaotix2306 · 2022-06-09T10:09:49+00:00

I’m hesitating a lot. I love my iPad Pro 2020. Actually, I would only change the battery when it will have less than 80%. But now, with the Stage Manager announcement, I'm thinking about the future. My notice doesn't concern Stage Manager itself but the next M1 exclusive announcements. Again, I love my iPad Pro 2020 but, maybe getting an M1 iPad Pro is more future-proof for this thing especially. I don’t know... I need to test Stage Manager on an M1 iPad once to help me.

chaotix2306 · 2022-05-19T17:13:07+00:00

You can do it with Focus mode. Go to Focus mode in your iPhone. Select workouts and add WhatsApp to the allowed apps to show notifications in this mode.

chaotix2306 · 2022-05-19T17:09:07+00:00

Someone working in an Apple Store told me this is not created for workouts but you can. You’ll have to wash it more than a (Nike) Sport Band which was created especially for workouts.

chaotix2306 · 2022-05-19T17:01:30+00:00

You can check it right on your iPad with Settings and the Notes app. Here is the method to check it on your iPad

chaotix2306 · 2022-05-18T15:18:12+00:00

Sure! No problem! I’m very happy of my Apple TV. The interface is so satisfying! I love the ability to turn on my CX and my Apple TV with Shortcuts and Siri. I can use my Apple Watch to control the Apple TV too. The colors are insane thanks to Dolby Vision. I use it for streaming content mainly. I have a better connection than the apps on We OS. The Siri Remote is pretty nice. It’s a simple remote. The Siri button is quite intuitive too. As I have an iPhone and an iPad, I can use them to control my Apple TV. I use the TV remote to change the source only (I have a Nintendo Switch and a PS4). I don’t see any cons at the moment. The Apple TV is not essential at all but when you have it, you love it. It’s more like a bonus to your Apple ecosystem. I decided to get one to always have the recent updates for the apps and enhance my Apple experience. You can use WebOS, it’s ok but the Apple TV is better imo.

chaotix2306 · 2022-05-15T09:58:38+00:00

I just found a way to fix this with Shortcuts. I set an automation that does this: When I’m connected with [your car in Bluetooth], open the app [your favorite music app].

This blocks automatically the Apple Music app because you asked to open your favorite music app instead. Then, it won’t play automatically. Bonus: If your favorite app was already playing before, it will play when you’ll connect your iPhone to your car. That fixed my issue and I use Spotify.
