Apple’s WWDC26 keynote emphasized attention to detail, and Adam Engst took that literally—he OCRed and categorized all 264 items on the “Sweating the Details” slide to help you find the refinements that matter most to you. Adam also celebrates Andy Ihnatko’s renewed focus on long-form writing with his new membership blog at Ihnatko.com, blending Dave Barry–style absurdity with deep Apple knowledge. If you’ve ever made an accidental phone call on your iPhone, don’t miss Adam’s upcoming free presentation for the Naples MacFriends User Group on the Phone app’s Classic and Unified views—register now for the June 2026 online meeting. Finally, we link to a fascinating article about a telehealth doctor who pairs TextExpander’s “monster snippets” with a gaming mouse to improve patient communications. Notable Mac app releases this week include Fantastical 4.1.14, Mimestream 1.10.2, OmniOutliner Essentials and Pro 6.2, and Path Finder 26.1.4.
