Enhancing macOS User Experience

This week, Federico and John share their WWDC wishes for macOS and visionOS.

On AppStories+, John explores how Apple hardware and software got so out of sync when it comes to AI use cases.

We deliver AppStories+ to subscribers with bonus content, ad-free, and at a high bitrate early every week.
