@chancemiller.me Was going to buy the new HomeView - but it’s not available in Norway. Bear in mind, Norway is NOT in the EU and we have Siri AI enabled.

Sad - and here I thought they needed more time to run episodes (or just more programs for outdoor running, not only treadmills)

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Hope they still keep it. Been using it on a weekly basis since it came out in Norway.

@andrewosu.bsky.social I’m with you on the Duo Going to have it as my main phone + replacing my iPad. Kinda worried I might miss my iPad Pro m1, but HEY!

002

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

@chancemiller.me Im in for an iPhone Duo. Selling my iPad Pro M1 AND my iPhone 16 Pro Max. Getting an apple pencil when its usable with the Duo and BOOM two products into one.

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

Honestly, I find myself just sitting in my car using Siri on my AirPods instead of the Tesla infotainment system. Apple CarPlay, helllooo? I talk to Siri all the time—it really feels like having a personal assistant now with the update.

Cheers. I’m still indexing…

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 16/06/2026

Does it have access to your Journal information, from the app? I tried to prompt it to access it, but got a reply that Journal information was private and could not be accessed. But, I only tried once, and didn’t think more of it. Gave feedback that journal information could be accessed via faceID

@sfbags.bsky.social Proper service A week or so ago my cross-body strap broke on my Tech Folio Brief. All the way over from San Fran to Norway, it just arrived today. Honestly surprised by the level of service. Back to business

Waitlist for Siri AI - it’s now been over 50hrs And my indexing is not done yet Should I be worried?

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 09/06/2026

Why am I seeing this as a "news" posted a couple mins ago, but the article on the webpage is from february?

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 09/06/2026

On the waitlist for the new Apple Siri AI… 10hrs and counting

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Well???? Exciting times to be alive!

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

The Office Suite already had this, and it was one of the things I missed when making lectures and presentations when I moved from PowerPoint over to Keynote. Bottom line - really impressed with the updates, and I look forward to utilise the new features to make great presentations this year.

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

Fantastic! Just fantastic I heard on the latest @9to5mac.com podcast that the standalone ChatGPT experience match or outperforms the new AI-integrations in Keynote, Numbers and Pages. I disagree. Also, having a photobank this large for stock photos and easy integration for making new ones was needed

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

@9to5mac.com The new Apple Creator Studio - I for one think its really impressive. I run the SoMe-channels for our business = Pixelmator Pro is going to be nice I record and edit podcast = Logic Pro, sweeeeet But first and foremost Im an academic writer and presenter, so the whole iWorks is simply

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 15/01/2026

@chancemiller.me When do you think the rest of the world will get stuff like; Workout Buddy Call Screening Transcription from Voice Recording Among other stuff. Really missing Call Screening and Workout Buddy - had it when betatesting with UK-language, now Im back to Norwegian, and I miss it!

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 15/01/2026

Once Fitness+ was available in Norway, I started using it. Still using it, close to every day. Strength workouts, treadmill workouts (which are really, really good, must say), "Build-a-yoga-habit" and Meditation (small 5 minute when I arrive at the office each day). Blown away by how good it is

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

Mind tossing in a vision pro unit as well, while we are at it? Its christmas after all

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

Come to think of it, I’m slacking on my journaling. I know your doing a proper job there

010

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

All are often (several times per week)

110

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 08/12/2025

Idk but I feel I won the lottery Can’t wait to finally test it out in #Norway Will it be included in Apple One though?

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 18/11/2025

@macrumors.bsky.social Apple could definitely get more revenue from Fitness+ if they simply opened the service to other countries with good English as 2nd language Like - Scandinavia would contribute to some subscribers!

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 28/10/2025

No internal ssd and not compatible with a windows laptop - unfortunately cannot use it. Still looking out for one dock for my workflow, have yet to pull the trigger on anything

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

However, maybe I should look into something a bit tighter for the travel-side of things? Usually I only get my MPB and iPad, alongside some chargers for those, my AirPods Max and a mouse. Definitely travel lighter than everyday work. Any suggestions @sfbags.bsky.social

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

However much I enjoy the Tech Brief Folio for my day to day business and travel, I can tell that I might be overloading it somewhat. Two laptops (one 14” MBP & one 13” HP), one 11” iPad, and a lot of chargers, wires and necessary accessories seem to “stretch” the fabric abit.

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

Regarding the F1 deal being US exclusive I understand, I think, but come on! Id loooooove F1 in the Apple TV app. Imagine, IMAGINE if they do Pro Soccer, like CL, PL, La Liga or others (men & female leagues), in the TV App. Holy Smokes.

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 24/09/2025

This is not a beautiful set up photo Its my gear after the security check at the airport Ive been using the Tech Brief Folio from @sfbags.bsky.social every day since I got it over a year ago Still amazes me how much I can fit in it - and it reduces time spent in the security check which is nice

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 23/09/2025

The new change to Fitness is mind blowingly useful For setting up intervals, starting the workout, keeping track of intervals etc as a live activity Just a huge update

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 20/09/2025

@chancemiller.me Got the new Ultra 3 Up from the Series 7 Now what? 🤩

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

@chancemiller.me Is this new in the RC 26? I’ve workout out throughout the beta cycle and newer seen this screen pop up. It’s even a live activity!

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 23/08/2025

If AppleTv+ had a subscription for European Football, like Premier League, La Liga or the Norwegian Tippeligaen, I would not hesitate to watch it through AppleTv+. MLS - Im so jealous they have this option in the states. I just dont want to watch live matches at 02:00 AM local time.

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 18/08/2025

New Siri mode (in the future, the rumour news wheel) is going to be really cool. Just don’t give this virtual assistant a face Keep the rainbow lines on the side Give me Jarvis - interrupt me in conversation in a polite way, as long as it’s good, and cool

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 15/08/2025

In Latest @9to5mac.com podcast, they mentioned that Spotlight on MacOS26 Tahoe didnt work. This happened to me as well on the last Public Beta. Just updated to the latest public beta. I noticed that the Mac-storage has "no applications", which is why spotlight finds nothing. Its all "system data"

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 15/08/2025

If apple CarPlay is going to be usable in EVs, we need more integration with range and preheating of the battery

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 18/07/2025

Just read @9to5mac.com new article: 9to5mac.com/2025/07/18/a... At this point it's just clear how much better the service is in the English-speaking countries. Which is annoying, since plenty of other countries will do just FINE if some of the stuff has to be in english Take my Norwegian money🍎

9to5mac.com

Apple One just keeps getting better, here’s what’s coming next - 9to5Mac

Apple One benefits from new features being added to Apple’s services all the time, and there are plenty of fresh updates coming in iOS 26.

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 30/06/2025

@9to5mac.com Did you notice the small visual detail in Messenger dynamic backgrounds? How the background reacts to your reactions on messages? Or when the keyboard opens or closes? Like the ripple effect on the underwater background Is Just Beautiful

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 28/06/2025

Apple Intelligence in shortcuts app Mindblowing But! And this is a big one Norwegian is not supported, so I have to jump some major hoops and use “dictate text” and run that through ChatGPT instead, and run that output to Apple Notes Not 100%, but it’s really cool

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 26/06/2025

Audiomix just works Amazing Not 100% all the time, but its Beta 2

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 24/06/2025

@sellverge.com Please - poke your contacts within Apple. We need more focus on using MacOs/iPad OS and the MPB/MacMini/iPad hardware for gaming and streaming. Using only one machine/device at a time Like the hardware is right there! Just let me route different audio sources to my stream!

020

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 20/06/2025

Workout buddy on Apple Watch / iPhone accompanied me on my 5k today It gave me feedback, and then said “Keep pushing with this track from Jay-Z and Linkin Park” It was correct. Daym. Even got Norwegian songs correct! Interesting

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Can we also be allowed to change the messages background (the home page for all the messages)? From black To something fancy #ios26

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

@9to5mac.com Is visual intelligence out there in the new beta? Like the screenshot-enhancement? Caaaaant find it

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 15/06/2025

Why is workout buddy dependent on my iphone? I bought my Apple Watch with cellular capabilities for the exact purpose of leaving my phone home when I go for an outdoor workout…

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 14/06/2025

Looking forward to hear the episode. Can the iPad record two local mics? Or is it better for one local mic and one through a program (streaming, like you and William?) Trying to get into the area of podcasting, and really excited about the new updates to iPad and AirPods!

000

Søren Skår @mrskaar.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

The new OS´26 feels smooth across the board, apart from the occasional hiccups in a dev beta. Ive reported a few. All in all, Im so thrilled using my Apple Ecosystem across the board, from my MBP, through my iPadPro, iPhone, Apple Watch and back home to the Mac Mini. Splendid
