Apple’s Sending Mixed Messages About Screen Time
The iOS 17 update nudges us to always keep our phones on with StandBy Mode — but is more screen time the path for all Apple devices? Bridget Carey looks at signs that Macs and iPads may shift into always-on smart displays. Products mentioned in this video: MagSafe Charger: Twelve South Forte: *CNET may get…

This new way of treating depression starts with rewiring the brain #TEDTalks
The idea that depression comes from a chemical imbalance in the brain has shaped treatment for decades. Neuroscientist Lisa Monteggia shares research suggesting that’s not the whole story — and shows how a decades-old drug could upend what we thought we knew about depression, with the potential to offer relief within hours.

1. Focus modes are like profiles for different usage of the devices like work and study not so you don’t use the device like a Zen mode
2. The focus distance is different from the distance from the screen. When wearing VR you aren’t focusing on the device but beyond it so it’s like trickery and it’s not bad. They still added a minimum age limit so kids who are more likely to get Myopia don’t use it

I’ve been using iOS 17 since the first beta. Now granted, I work in tech as a systems engineer, but it’s been fairly stable. Small bugs but no show stoppers. The new interactive widgets are great and messages is much improved. Overall, great job, Apple.

Thanks for helping me and my mental journal entries Bridget of more reasons why I want to replace my Apple iPhone with a Samsung or other Android smart phone (hopefully a flip phone). I already enjoy putting my phone away or screen facing down to avoid distractions while interacting with other humans and in my garden. I usually don’t even want to wear my Apple Watch since it also distracts and seems to have been the always on screen test pilot for Apple. Am I the only one who feels like technology is becoming more overwhelming and we are becoming too connected to be able to disconnect? Your videos are great and keep them coming please.????

It’s not only Apple. I get a weekly report from Samsung that I have used my phone for such hours and I used it an hour more or less than last week. I don’t know about the rest of Android, but Samsung does this too. Don’t blame Apple, because both ecosystems are doing the same thing. They want us to use our phones and be aware of how long we’re using the devices. Mixed signals with advertising to buy more of their devices ????????????♂️

First of all screens aren’t what’s making it bad to sit close, its the light. A headset doesn’t have to blast as much light since it’s closer to your eyes. This video concept feels lazy

Screen distance! I hope that will have a setting that I can turn off. I don’t need a “nanny” nag on my iPhone.

I have a iPhone 14 pro max and an iPad Pro 12” and I have the always on display feature turned off. I don’t need my phone screen or my iPad screen to always be on.

The fact that some of you think that using your phone or tablet close to your eyes is the same as viewing content through a head-mounted display says a lot about how little research is done in this tech community.

1. iOS is boring
2. Staring at a screen for too long on any device ruins your eyes
3. I don’t care if it’s iOS or Android as long as I get my messages and the device fits in my pocket.
4. I would never strap a screen to my face. It looks bad, ruins my eyes and does not improve my life in any way.

Claiming that features like StandBy and Journal are “mixed messaging about screen time” is quite ignorant. Journaling and having a bedside clock existed long before iOS. Using iOS to replace things that already existed in the past, but in a more useful way, is not “screen time” in the sense that you’re using it. Bad screen time is social media, useless games, etc. Not reflecting on your day, reading a book, checking the time at a glance, or calling a loved one.
