Is there any work on tooling for points of interest? Google Maps makes it easy for me to search and update when I see changes e.g. closed for vacation, etc.
Most of those issues are with individual streaming providers messing up their implementations of the announcement apps,
or showing how terrible their own catalog is (e.g. Hulu wanting to play the Spanish version of the Mentalist) but there is definitely room for improvement- it should remember properly which provider you watched a series instead of constantly reverting to what it thinks is best which is based on the bad data from the other apps.
Netflix is the only major service that doesn’t seem to play well, but services with sub-services (especially Amazon) don’t take into account your subscriptions when announcing what they carry and others (like Hulu) advertise stuff you can’t view at all.
The idea is excellent, individual provider’s implementations often suck, but since the Netflix app is so very terrible, they could really use full Apple TV integration.
How do they tell their significant other how to logon to a shared account when they aren’t together? How do they use the Yubikey with their phone, laptop and tablet conveniently?
> Still, I can see a lot of scenarios where this might not work - e.g., the first one I thought of was a public computer at a library where Bluetooth might be locked down; corporate computers or remote servers could also be troublesome.
None of my desktop computers support Bluetooth. Neither do my wife’s.
