Those Music updates were a long time coming!

Really wondering when this journal app is coming

[–] MichelleG@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That’s a good point. I almost forgot about the new Journal app.

[–] ultratiem@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

It’ll be shipped via the App Store, so not in tandem with an OS update.

[–] FerNZA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Me too, that was the biggest thing I have been waiting for. Well that and some homekit things. I have been trying to get more info about the journal app but nothing more that was in the presentation.

[–] SecretPancake@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I hope it’s not being quietly canceled.

Apes together stronk. Wait for 17.1.1

[–] nocturne213@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

But the iOS 17 user guide still has not been released. Maybe it will be in time for 18?

I was really excited about Favorites in the Music app… until I learned it’s just replacing “Loved.”

I thought they’d have a third type of system:

Favorites / Suggest More (Love) / Suggest Less

It’s sort of like that now, but it’s:

Favorites (Loved) / Suggest More (Added to Library) / Suggest Less

Oh well!

[–] Bagel@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Love and favorites would be super redundant and confusing for the average user IMO.

[–] monz@pawb.social 5 points 1 year ago

That’s why I never explicitly said it should have both.

[–] weksa@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I updated because of the supposed fix for the keyboard lag.
