Article also mentions targeting Books and a few other apps as well.

Anyone have a solid epub reader on iOS? I frequently use the Books app to read my epubs since I often find myself without my ereader and don’t want to use Kindle.

You're reading a book and suddenly as the main character reaches in their backpack, he pulls out a cold, dew covered bottle of CERVEZA CRISTAL!

I use kobo because I have a kobo reader and you can import any epub into their app and it will work great. Otherwise I like Yomu, it’s got a nice and clean interface.

Whotf even used Apple Maps lol

[–] irish_link@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

I actually do when I am using my car that doesn't have a smart system/android auto/carplay. The reason is that it will ping/vibrate my watch when I am getting close to a turn or action. That way I know something is coming up. Thats about the only time I use it.

~~Losers~~ People deep in the apple ecosystem. There's a surprising number these days.

Apparently the Google maps app on ios is very terrible

Friend of mine showed it to me on a quite recent phone and it's super stuttery and laggy when scrolling around

That's kinda funny considering what garbage applemaps was when it launched. Google just had to not screw up and I guess they did.
