    Sweet background. I do want the Google search widget. On iPhone the flashlight and music controls are just a quick swipe up from the bottom of the screen, which is pretty convenient. Other than that, I don't think we can have multiple screens like you do, unless the screen is full of icons. Nice setup!

    Thanks. I love the search bar widget, so convinient to have it right there in ur home page at all times. Flashlight, music i put on there just for quicker access and i like the look of having it there. No big deal but i like it.
    Not full of icons. I like having them them set up a certain way. Sometimes i rearrange them if i dont like the way they look when i change the background. Really just minor s---, that i grew to love

    One week.

    I really hope they somehow also introduce a way to rotate your video recording orientation without having to physically turn the device. I.e., record in landscape while holding in portrait.

    Yeah, you can have multiple screens which don't need to be full of apps.

    Why would you want to do that though? Curious.

    It's way easier & natural to hold the device vertically, which is why you get a large amount of videos recorded in portrait mode, when the videos themselves would be way better off being recorded in landscape. Landscape offers a full-screen playback experience (on both mobile, desktop, tv), and is often the desired recording aspect, but the lazier/more-convenient mode is used due to the ease of holding your phone in that orientation.

    In my opinion, your idea would better serve as a pro-feature, one which is only available on the 6S Plus. Holding that phone in a different way is something the 6S less often do for obvious size reasons. I can see your feature suggestion be perfect for those users.

    Which iPhone do you have?

    On another note, less than 24 hours until we find out whether Apple has any additional surprises or not. Lots of stuff is pretty safe to happen at this point.

    i actually rock the SE. love the smaller device. i think the same awkwardness (to varying levels) applies to each model. we'll see though.

    also, latest rumor i heard is that we may not expect to see any new hardware tomorrow (phone & laptops). would be rough, but tbh, the leaks have been pretty scarce this time around so who knows if they'll actually take back the wwdc to focus on what it was originally: a developers conference (software)...and then have a separate announcement a few months later?

    @Mike Tyson we may not get that mbp refresh that we been waiting on

    These mockups for the rumored new OLED bar look nice as h--- -- it (hopefully) being pretty customizable will be a huge feature.

    At this point, the about-to-be-updated Apple Music user experience and (hopefully) new MacBooks excite me the most.

    What about you guys?

    I heard there's a Connect overhaul coming? Hopefully it becomes a platform that artists use like they use SoundCloud.

    A small overhaul is possible (according to rumors), but it's more likely that Apple will slowly let it die like Ping back then (according to rumors).

    Rumors, rumors, rumors.

    Man, that's too bad. An artist page with their discography neatly listed, their Twitter feed, and all of their loosies would be nice.

    Sucks that you can't add Connect joints to your library tho.
