And suddenly Apple discovered widgets

Androidized Apple

Maybe it's that I'm too humble and I don't like someone who takes an idea of ​​yours and suddenly sells it as revolutionary, and you then take an idea of ​​his and calmly say "we already have the gestures on Android" without further ado. Well gentlemen, what Apple suddenly discovered widgets And now it is the most revolutionary thing in the world.

And here there is nothing to reinvent, you lack ideas and you no longer know where to go. Thanks to the fact that Android has been a open system where hundreds of developers have been testing different ideas With their apps, some have fit more than others, so that some were taken by Google to implement them in the root of the Android system.

When you devalue the word "revolutionary"

Widget on Android

Apple is commissioning to devalue that important word for the human with all those adoptions that he takes from Android to later sell it as something exclusive to his software. I can perfectly say that it is the same reason why I will never touch anything from Apple; And see that Airpods have their thing, but then you see this way of selling the bike and you lose all desire.

Yesterday in its new keynote, where they always have to come out as the victors and as they are the most of the most, Apple presented the widgets; what by the way You can see all the new features of iOS 14 that we already have on Android and if you want to enjoy them at another level, Now you go to Samsung and you have them in a better way in One UI 2.1.

And it is that even apart from suddenly discovering the widgets, it has also included the PiP. Yes, that window mode that comes in luxury when you are on WhatsApp and you can go to other conversations. And that we emphasize it, that here in Android we have been enjoying it for years and without spending the pasture that means having the new iPhone (although they have even gone to the mid-range in prices). But hey, they are the revolutionaries.

Let's face it, everyone here "borrows" from each other

Widgets OneUI 2.1

I think that COVID-19 has had to change our behavior in some way and our way of thinking. In terms of software, let's see, everyone here is going to "borrow" what Microsoft, Google or Apple invents. That is more than clear. Sooner or later that new function will pass to another system, but that of borrowing it and then giving it to you because you are the one who revolutionizes it?

That is where I do not enter and everything to satisfy his followers who need that something revolutionary, why later? As you might say, "I don't understand."  It would be revolutionary if you invented the COVID-19 vaccine, that's revolutionary, but not a widget that we've always had on Android; And yes, maybe it needs some update to improve that aspect, but that's it. Relax and peace, things are as they are, they are widgets.

Revolutionary?

Nadella

Well look what perhaps Microsoft's Nadella is more than revolutionary in being able to unite brands to give new experiences that are not here selling the bike with ideas that are highly integrated into other systems to make them yours. Yes, revolutionary is that you have a Microsoft with Samsung giving new experiences from a laptop with Windows 10, and that app Your Phone to be able to do something that was impossible before with Android.

We have to understand that the great complexity of Android is its different brands and that you have to start a multitude of conversations to reach all of one; when the easy thing about Apple is that everything is decided by him, so he does not have to be so complicated and spend so much on dinners to "get along." Revolutionary is convincing both sides of big brands to shake hands and offer benefits to users; watch some of the published videos related to Your Phone y Windows connection to Galaxy Note10 + and what awaits us.

That could be called a revolution, and when perhaps Apple will realize that in this it will not be able to continue alone (You just have to see how lacking he is of ideas), maybe it is too late.
