| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to the Appensider podcast. I'm William Gallagher. I'm |
| 0:09.5 | William Gallagher. I sponsor this week at IDOU and OpenCase. And this is, what, week three already of the |
| 0:16.0 | beta releases for iOS 26, MacOS Tahoe and more. It is got to stress this. |
| 0:21.4 | It's still the case. |
| 0:22.1 | You should not install beaters unless you're a developer. |
| 0:24.9 | And actually, you know, I was so close. |
| 0:26.7 | I was going to make a joke there about it all. |
| 0:28.9 | Yeah, I was going to, you know, silence the audio suddenly as if yet another app had crashed. |
| 0:33.5 | But given how bad I am with audio all by myself, I think you just believe me. |
| 0:39.1 | So anyway, I'm joined as ever by Wesley Hilliard, who last week watched the F1 experience in Apple Vision Pro. |

| 1:01.7 | So I did get my tickets and it's funny. They don't make it easy to get to the discount. |
| 1:17.1 | Because Fandango is just not designed for this at all. |
| 1:21.2 | They're like, oh, go to the Fandango website or use the Fandango app. |
| 1:22.2 | Well, guess what, guys? |
| 1:30.7 | If you use the Fandango app, it opens the Fandango website as a modal inside of the app anyway. So it doesn't matter. It's not an, it's not an app interface that you're dealing with. So come on guys, native apps, please. But either way, |
| 1:38.3 | once you're on the website and set up your tickets, you pick your seats, go to checkout. You can't |
| 1:44.1 | just hit Apple Pay because you still haven't applied the promo code. |
| 1:47.6 | So you have to go to checkout, log in, hit the promo code option, then type it in, then check out with Apple Pay, then you get your discount. |
| 1:58.9 | I wish they would make that more straightforward. |
