[2083.76 --> 2088.80] It feels like someone has slapped a cheap skin on top of my stock Android.
[2089.78 --> 2092.86] And it just doesn't work.
[2092.94 --> 2093.88] It doesn't fit for me.
[2094.00 --> 2100.74] And, you know, they tout all these features like it picks up colors from your wallpaper and changes the theme throughout.
[2100.86 --> 2102.30] I don't want that.
[2102.70 --> 2104.54] I want to set it and forget it.
[2104.54 --> 2110.26] It is a production device that should just always be exactly as I left it.
[2110.34 --> 2110.66] That's it.
[2110.72 --> 2111.30] That's its job.
[2113.58 --> 2114.26] It's funny.
[2114.34 --> 2123.48] That has been a trend recently of, like, we will automatically detect a primary color in your website or in your background, and we'll completely recolor the UI so that way it matches.
[2123.78 --> 2128.40] And users' response is always, no, don't really want that.
[2129.18 --> 2131.62] I think Big Sur might have started this trend, actually.
[2131.80 --> 2132.28] You know, Apple.
[2132.34 --> 2132.58] Right.
[2132.58 --> 2142.16] Maybe even going back to, was it, iOS 7 when they introduced, like, the new Crayola-style, you know, cartoonish kind of vibe to it.
[2142.30 --> 2143.10] It was a big redesign.
[2143.34 --> 2144.48] It was a while ago now.
[2145.06 --> 2145.20] Yeah.
[2145.26 --> 2149.42] Well, wasn't there just a big upset about Safari, like, changing colors and stuff?
[2149.70 --> 2150.84] New tab design or something.
[2151.02 --> 2151.18] Yeah.
[2151.28 --> 2152.66] And taking colors from websites.
[2152.66 --> 2153.44] And people hate it.
[2153.76 --> 2155.08] People don't like change.
[2155.66 --> 2156.54] Why change it?
[2156.76 --> 2157.64] It's not broken.
[2157.64 --> 2161.14] Radical change for just change sake, I think, is what people don't like.
[2161.60 --> 2168.70] I mean, I'm the type of guy that installs Bartender on my Mac so that I can condense the icons in Big Sur back together again.
[2168.90 --> 2169.18] You know?
[2169.18 --> 2172.54] I don't need things spacing out more and more.
[2172.62 --> 2177.22] Like, I have a very fine cursor on a laptop or, you know, a computer.
[2177.34 --> 2179.50] I don't need finger-sized buttons.
[2181.50 --> 2181.94] Yeah.
[2182.04 --> 2190.68] And on a phone, I tell you, you know, you give me a six and a half inch display or whatever, and you reduce my options by an order of magnitude.
[2190.68 --> 2191.68] I just...
[2191.68 --> 2193.86] Can I tell you what my lesson is from this?
[2194.58 --> 2202.08] Is that if you're building an app or you're hosting something or whatever it is, web apps are still the best way to go.
[2202.88 --> 2206.36] Because all of these OS platforms disappoint in some other way.
[2206.62 --> 2209.84] And, like, you can be an Android fan for a while, and then you get burned out.
[2209.90 --> 2211.62] You can be an iOS fan for a while, you get burned out.
[2211.66 --> 2216.42] And it's not like you can go out and buy some other phone at any scale, at any practicality right now.
[2216.42 --> 2221.56] But as long as it's a web app, well, you can get to it from any phone OS.
[2221.70 --> 2223.24] You can get it from any desktop OS.
[2223.90 --> 2225.26] Ultimately, it is the neutralizer.
[2226.06 --> 2232.28] Which brings me to my final nail in the coffin for iOS for now.
[2232.50 --> 2235.84] And I do hope the courts kind of change how this is going to go.
[2236.66 --> 2243.16] I was listening to Craig Federighi passionately defend against sideloading.
[2243.16 --> 2246.24] And I could not believe some of the trash.
[2247.08 --> 2248.90] It's so embarrassing to listen to him.
[2249.42 --> 2249.82] Cringy.
[2250.32 --> 2254.50] And for me, on Android, you know, I discovered Sponsor Block this week for YouTube.
[2254.90 --> 2260.74] By the way, if you've not come across this thing, it will cut out the intros of YouTube videos.
[2261.00 --> 2264.68] And this video is brought to you about, like, all that stuff is just gone.
[2265.10 --> 2266.68] You know, like and subscribe is gone.
[2266.88 --> 2267.34] Just gone.
[2267.86 --> 2268.44] It's amazing.
[2268.44 --> 2271.90] And I wanted to sideload this on my Android TV device.
[2272.28 --> 2273.46] And I can do that.
[2273.76 --> 2276.94] If I wanted to do this on an Apple TV, I mean, I don't have one.
[2277.08 --> 2278.42] But I assume it would be more difficult.
[2278.60 --> 2281.96] Because why would Apple approve something like that through the App Store, you know?
[2282.56 --> 2282.74] Yeah.
[2284.08 --> 2291.50] So, for now at least, I think I'll stick with my 7T until something better comes along.
[2291.50 --> 2299.84] Although the grass over on the iOS side is looking ever more slightly verdant and greener.
[2300.08 --> 2304.54] I'll probably buy one at some point and then regret it and return it like I always do.
[2305.24 --> 2309.06] Well, since we'll probably never have this chat again on the show, or we will have it very infrequently,
[2309.50 --> 2313.66] I just want to add, because I don't get an opportunity to do this very often,
[2313.66 --> 2316.78] and it holds true now about two years in.
[2317.26 --> 2322.08] I think something we do not give iOS enough credit for on this show in particular is that
[2322.08 --> 2330.58] if you are a Home Assistant user, you can use HomeKit to integrate with the iOS HomeKit system.
[2331.68 --> 2336.60] And every device you have in Home Assistant, every light, every fan, every thermostat,
[2336.60 --> 2343.74] shows up as a HomeKit device to your iPhone, which means it shows up as a device to Siri.
[2343.96 --> 2346.32] It shows up as a device to your watch.
[2346.58 --> 2348.82] It shows up when I pull down the control panel.
[2349.34 --> 2351.28] And it changes location, too, by the way.
[2351.66 --> 2355.04] So, when I'm at the studio, it updates to devices that are here.
[2355.12 --> 2357.76] And when I go home, it updates to devices and jupes.
[2358.24 --> 2359.22] And as I'm here right now...
[2359.22 --> 2362.64] Is that what you've been telling me about this HomeKit Bridge for ages?
[2362.82 --> 2364.20] No, HomeKit Bridge is a little different.
[2365.08 --> 2365.92] That's a little different.
[2365.92 --> 2369.76] And that HomeKit Bridge allows you to talk to devices that don't natively speak HomeKit.
[2370.16 --> 2372.88] It'll, like, talk whatever they speak and bridge it to HomeKit.
[2373.06 --> 2373.76] Oh, okay.
[2373.76 --> 2377.60] But this, this actually, like, you connect the HomeKit to...
[2377.60 --> 2380.76] You connect the HomeKit on the iOS to Home Assistant,
[2381.00 --> 2383.34] and Home Assistant actually speaks native HomeKit now.
[2383.60 --> 2389.60] And it means every device is in here, and I can use voice prompts on HomePods, on the phone,
[2389.60 --> 2391.76] but also in Control Center, in the Home app.
[2391.76 --> 2399.46] And it also means if you want, if you have a family iOS setup, so, like, my wife and kids, we're all family in iOS,
[2399.98 --> 2402.62] they also get access to devices through the Home app.
[2402.72 --> 2404.56] I don't even have to give them the Home Assistant app.
[2404.78 --> 2406.96] And it works remotely because we have a HomePod.
[2406.96 --> 2414.48] So, and it really is, it's very special, and there's nothing quite close to that integration on Android without going all in on Google Assistant.
[2415.20 --> 2423.92] And additionally, what I love about it is the Home Assistant app for iOS is a particularly great piece of software.
[2423.92 --> 2430.88] And the developer who makes the iOS Home Assistant app deserves a few beers, just for me personally,
[2431.00 --> 2432.42] because it is such a great app.
[2432.74 --> 2438.10] And they've recently added focus mode support as a sensor to Home Assistant.
[2438.56 --> 2440.56] So I want you to think about what that means for a second.
