It’s strange that there would be so much documentation for an API that reportedly doesn’t work. Including a 2019 WWDC session explaining how to run in the background for more processor intensive tasks.

There’s even a recent step by step post on Medium explaining how to implement short or long background tasks. Doesn’t say anything about it not working.

If it really doesn’t work then I’d imagine the lawsuit will be won handily. It’ll be interesting to see what becomes of this.
Is this the feature you’re saying doesn’t work?
Not getting it. There’s nothing stopping you from storing your photos in Amazon Photos, or Google photos, or Dropbox, or whatever.

Didn’t watch him on CNN. Won’t be watching him on streaming.

They’ll just put a sticker on it that says “contains milk”. This is like one of those Tesla recalls that is really just a software update done to meet federal or state requirements.
Some yes. Some no. And if I’m paying for news, there’d better not be any ads at all.
They exist to push ads. Even the premium version of Apple News has ads.
Tip: Your local public library offers the same electronic versions of magazines through an app called Hoopla. For free.
Apple News is one of the most poorly managed of all the Apple products. Whomever is in charge of it should be fired.
This story is from 2017.
8·6 days agoTricinosis was commonly found in pork before modern food prep. It’s likely why it was a forbidden meat in many middle eastern cultures. Look at the list of animals that spread the disease — it’s not like ancient Jews would be eating walrus.

A lot of these ancient traditions came about because someone got sick from eating or doing something.
Onions and potatoes don’t give you trichinosis.

Both can be true.
They will need to show plagiarism in the results returned by AI. I bet that won’t be too difficult.
That doesn’t say the API doesn’t work. That says the API that dev chose is for when your device is going to run heavy background tasks (processing). This API is designed to run when the device has plenty of battery or is plugged in and isn’t doing anything else. That’s not unexpected, nor is it any different from Apple apps (you don’t want spotlight indexing or photo recognition to fire when you’re low on battery or in the middle of playing a game).
Uploading photos isn’t a heavy background task. There’s gotta be a way to do upload it as you take the photo. And I’d think sending new photos to an app would be done by a push notification or would work similar to receiving new emails in the background from the many third party mail apps that do this.
Again, I want to see what the suing devs claim and what Apple counters with.
