8 Apps Apple Killed Today At WWDC

Based on the various reports of issues with iCloud losing data, I think 1Password is safe. If Apple took the time to make iCloud more robust, useful and transparent it could definitely be a killer feature.

Yahoo! Weather was a winner of The Apple Design Awards this year: https://developer.apple.com/wwdc/events/awards/

1Password, last time I checked, is not only for OSX and iOS. But yes, to stay relevant and in business they shall have to show their love all the platforms(they are hardly noticeable outside of iWorld) they are on and maybe they need to tweak the price a little. No, they are free to price it at whatever amount they wish but LastPass is almost everywhere and it works like charm and on iDevices there's iCloud KeyChain now.

Pandora, Spotify share the same fate. The entire world is not buying iDevices. Well, it's a small portion actually. So if they also focus their energies to lesser worlds maybe they have a better chance and if they make it a point that "no, we are going to cater to the class only" then they will have to compete against Apple on Apple's turf and within Apple's rules and laws and one fine day Apple can simply them to get out which it has done before.

Instapaper might be killed actually depending upon how many Mac users actually use Safari as their full time browser. I don't know any and among the people I know - pocket and Pinboard are the services they mostly rely upon and this kind of service(Instapaper included) are not much dependent on Safari either.

I don't really think any app or service is going to be killed until and unless they become totally dependent on iOS and OSX and I don't think there's any except like Instashare.

The author either assumed there isn't an ecosystem without an i in their names or with an X in the end; or it was directly towards iWorld which despite of being a MBA user I am not a member of.
