Looks like someone decided to play hide-and-seek with data packets over a gazillion Apple devices, and then Google thought, "Hey, we want in on the fun too!" 🤔🔍 Meanwhile, the rest of us are just trying to find our keys. 🗝️🤷‍♂️

Well, that is like: giving some #freedom to the people locked into #Apple's #walledGarden :tony_smiling:
I am #happy you posted here about the #dev's work on #Android. I felt quite unpleasant this time, as I thought it was left behind... :)
TY!

🖥️🍏 So, a group of tech wizards at gimletlabs.ai decided to unleash #AI to write some flashy Metal kernels for Apple devices, because apparently that's how you impress people in 2025. 🤖🚀 Spoiler alert: they claim a mind-boggling 87% speed boost, but let's be real, most of us are still trying to figure out what a "Metal kernel" even is. 🙄🎉

Now that #Windows has the #AppleDevices app to replace #iTunes when it comes to making local, complete, encrypted backups of #Apple devices i.e. #iPhone, #iPod, #iPad, etc. - Windows also needs #macOS 's #ImageCapture app for quick exports of photo/video files. That'll be nice.

Update:

Well, apparently it's already achievable simply by having the Apple Devices app installed, and using the default Photos app on Windows.

Doesn't seem to be working for me tho (the device isn't showing up in the Photos app, tho is on the Apple Devices app) - but that could just be either the fact that I'm doing this on a virtual machine (on #Linux), or bcos my device is an (outdated) iPod lol.

Cool tho I guess that this simple functionality isn't somehow exclusive to Macs but also Windows PCs.

Apple Faces Privacy Lawsuit: Employee Alleges Invasive Device Monitoring https://thecyberexpress.com/apple-lawsuit-by-employee/ #CaliforniaPrivateAttorneysGeneralAct #TheCyberExpressNews #TheCyberExpress #FirewallDaily #Appleemployee #Appledevices #Applelawsuit #CyberNews #iCloud #PAGA

okay, so the more important question is, what about the other apple apps made for windows, such as #AppleDevices, #JAWS2025.

Okay, so I'm told that it is possible to run #appleDevices with JAWS, provided I make sure to connect iPhone directly via USB. So, tried that, and even as my phone detects a computer connecting to it, and I allow it to do so, Autoplay gives me that flashing question which I can't get to in time, and #AppleDevices does not show my phone connected. I even checked to see if I have iTunes helper in startup, which I do. So, yeah, a bit weird to say the least.
