Hello and welcome back to another episodes of App Stories.

I'm John Vorty's and I've got Federico Vittico Vittici with me.

Hey, Federico.

Hello, John. How are you?

Good, good. It's been a big week over at Mac Stories. We've had a lot of popular stories this week, including the most popular of all,

which is your interview with Craig Federici, which was really, as I think you guys mentioned on

Connected, was really two stories in one, because it was really a story about about your thoughts on

iPad OS 26 and the journey of the iPad would and weaved into there was the interview with

Craig Federigi that you did at WWDC yeah that was sort of the idea for that story I figured

well obviously I like this is not a first impression story, right?

Because that will come with the public beta in July of the new operating systems.

But I also could share some thoughts. And I did have the beta on my iPad Pro. So I figured,

what's a good way to frame this in a way that it's not just,

I couldn't do an interview transcript. That was not the format for the story. And I figured,

well, you know, there's a type of conversation that I want to have with Craig Fedrigi. I've only had

limited time with iPad OS 26. I am going to save my first impressions for July and a proper review for September.

What can I talk about and really go in depth? And I figured, well, I've been covering this thing

for really the majority of my career. And I figured maybe the historical aspect of it is a good

angle. And it seems like people appreciate it the I don't know if you if you

notice but like and this is something that I do all the time that I've been doing

since high school I really like to have my narrative arcs in my stories and so many

this is like just my style I guess I really like to always start a story with an idea and circle back to that idea in the end.
