  • The message, “this app is no longer shared with you.”
  • Overcome the issue by reinstalling the affected apps

What's new?
  • integrates Apple’s COVID-19 contact tracing
  • a number of essential upgrades 
  • well as fixes to high profile problems

Release notes...

This update also introduces an option to control automatic prominence of video tiles on Group ‌FaceTime‌ calls and includes bug fixes and other improvements.”

Face ID and Passcode

‌Exposure Notification‌

  • ‌Exposure Notification‌ API to support COVID-19 contact tracing apps from public health authorities

  • iPhone 6S and newer and the 7th generation iPod touch.
So my iPhone 6 won't get the upgrade? 
  • There is another release, iOS 12.4.7, for older devices. 
  • It is a security update for the Mail app exploit. 
  • It does not include COVID-19 contact tracing functionality.
COVID-19 contact tracing functionality?

"The contact tracing system developed by Apple and Google works by using Bluetooth “chirps” to register physical interactions between smartphone users, regardless of whether they are using an Android or iOS device. If a person discovers that they have been infected with coronavirus, they can opt to share this information. The system then notifies other smartphone users who’ve come into close proximity with them. The hope is that this system could help slow the spread of the disease by warning people of potential infections." - https://www.cultofmac.com/711804/what-exactly-does-coronavirus-tracking-in-ios-13-5-do-cleaning-up-the-confusionhttps://www.cultofmac.com/711804/what-exactly-does-coronavirus-tracking-in-ios-13-5-do-cleaning-up-the-confusion

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8.
