  Widgets are the big change to iOS this year. In the Home Screen chapter, I went over all the details of widget design, the relationship between widgets and Intents, and more. Lots of third-party apps analyzed in detail. You can find Chapter 3 here: https://www.macstories.net/... …

  Great iOS 14 tip in @viticci's review: to see what Siri hears or says to you as text, like the way it used to be, it's a setting now: Settings ⇾ Siri & Search ⇾ Siri Responses Using iOS 14 all summer and not knowing about this, I really missed seeing what Siri heard me say. https…
