native apple life improvements

mobility has recently become my top value in productivity software.

on-the-go thinking and doing, whenever inspiration strikes is now my core requirement now when the itch to tinker my system strikes. Ultimately because i believe insight and progress is cumulative and needs constant re-engagement - which a phone in the pocket affords better than a computer. also, who wants to be seated behind a computer more than they have to?

the most powerful PWAs, electron apps, and 3rd-party native ios apps fundamentally pale to a single, stock feature in ios. the former lack the APIs (the gesture support, inter-app operability), and restrained ux necessary to actually elevate human expression.

so, i’ve created a list of free, hidden features built into every iphone that i use everyday that return me 10x my investment i’d like to share; as a kind of ode to good software design.
