Apple Users MN is joining Mini’app’les and we are combining our forces as one group going forward.  Sean Johnson founded Apple Users MN in 2012 as a group for people who use Apple products or are looking to make the switch. The goal is sharing of information and ideas.  We welcome Sean and his group and think they will fit right in with us in our continuing effort to share knowledge and excitement about Apple.
This month’s meeting, Sean has planned to discuss all the latest hardware releases from Apple and discuss how everyone is liking iOS 10, macOS Sierra, and watchOS 3.
We look forward to seeing you there.

Mini’app’les Meeting, Tuesday August 16 at 7:00 p.m., Q&A at 6:30 p.m.

by Tim Drenk
The next Mini’app’les meeting is Tuesday, August 16th, the third Tuesday of the month, at the Hackfactory (3119 E. 26th Street Minneapolis, MN 55406). At 6:30 p.m., members of the board and other knowledgable people will be available if you have specific questions you would like answered. We will do our best to address your question and help you troubleshoot the issue.
Over the summer, I bet you have taken lots of pictures, some with your iPhone, some with a DSLR or a point and shoot camera. At 7:00 p.m., we will talk about how we each organize, edit, and keep track of those pictures. Apple’s Photos is available, but there are other options and features out there. We will look at some of those options and what the pros and cons are for them.
 
We look forward to seeing you there.
