My iPhone Has Replaced My HomePod Mini Because of iOS 17

<p>Iwas quite taken with the Google Pixel tablet after I watched the&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/u/665f2b5379e3?source=post_page-----c8fb00c706a3--------------------------------" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Mark Ellis</a></p> <p>&nbsp;reviews on TikTok.</p> <p>This wasn&rsquo;t because it seemed to be a better tablet than an iPad. I&rsquo;ve no idea because I&rsquo;ve never used one.</p> <p>No, what caught my attention was how surprisingly useful a digital assistant with a visual interface is. Previously, I&rsquo;d thought a visual interface was as much use as a chocolate fireguard. .</p> <p>What changed my mind? Information was available at a glance on the screen. You didn&rsquo;t&rsquo;t have to keep asking it, for example, about how long was left on a timer. You could just look.</p> <p>It would also be straightforward to confirm that Siri had created the right timer. Given its sketchy understanding of the spoken word, that&rsquo;s an essential.</p> <p>Because the Pixel came with a magnetic charging stand, it can be easily and conveniently attached to or detached from the stand.Mark commented that he used the Pixel in this mode more than he used it as a tablet.</p> <p>I loved the idea, and wondered if I could make an iPad do something like that too. IPadOS 17 brings lock screen widgets to the iPad, so it sounded like it might possible, if not super elegant, to come up with something.</p> <p>Relax! You&rsquo;ve dodged a bullet because that article will never be written. It turns out that I don&rsquo;t need to go to the trouble because, with iOS 17, an iPhone can do what the Google Pixel does.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/macoclock/my-iphone-has-replaced-my-homepod-mini-because-of-ios-17-c8fb00c706a3"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
