I had a neat thought, which probably has a 0% chance of coming true; but what if apple ties functionality of the new “action button” to shortcuts and really opens up ios functionality and customizability to users of the pro phones.

this would further differentiate the two phone types to users, especially with the island coming to the regular line as well this year, apparently. (and we all know apple would love to play up the change from a switch to button and attempt to upsell the shit out of it).

and perhaps updates to shortcuts and the additional ram will make launching actions a bit snappier.

anyway just daydreaming my lemonheads 8)
