    I mean you can also buy Facerig on steam and get a similar effect, plus you can use it on Skype and freak out your friends.

    The issue is that this is nowhere near as good.

    Doesn't seem all that different, especially since it's a fun novelty anyway and not a substantial feature. Oh, and I can use Facerig on lots of non-apple stuff. I mean of course they are used for different things but it isn't like Apple's tech is some groundbreaking amazing new face tracking shit. It's good, but lots of other people are doing similar stuff. Snapchat has tons of filters and getting someone to explain the difference between those and this is probably pretty difficult for the average user! edit: Actually it doesn't look any different than the rooster on the last page. And the cat has way more detail too!
    This "Average User" fella seems pretty dumb. I feel like they need to go to school for a few more years or read more books or something...

    Apple’s uses a bunch of specialty hardware (3D dot projector and IR camera) that gives it faster update rate and a higher confidence for single frames, so you can get natural performance presence, instead of kind of a death mask / stroke victim looking performance that smooths out the tracking over too much time, and only has about 8 degrees of freedom.

    Edit: Which is to say Apple’s IS novel and unique for a consumer technology. It’s only a half step below professional mocap.

    Facerig doesn't seem nearly as cute as animoji, imo

    Sure, not as cartoony and whatnot. Facerig seems to let you add in your own stuff though

    I'm not saying it isn't neat, just that it isn't the only reason anyone should have spent an extra several hundred dollars on their phone.

    I was troubleshooting an e-mail problem a customer had and I wanted to do some testing on my phone. The Pixel 2 has GMail built in, but no e-mail app, so I downloaded Outlook for Android.

    OH MY GOD it is useless for troubleshooting.

    I was able to set up the account automatically, but I couldn't access ANY server settings for testing. Or even to make sure it's using the right servers.

    If I tried to set up the account manually, it offered no options for port or security settings, so the outgoing settings couldn't complete. To make matters worse, every time the setup failed, it cleared ALL the information so I had to put incoming and outgoing information in every time before I realized it was never going to work.

    Android integration for exchange blows.

    I just use the Gmail app?

    Well we asked the schools but they all said that kids are on computers too much anyway and so they've cancelled all the classes.

    Well in terms of the auto detect/custom settings options that nova was talking about. The Apple mail app is way better which is why we use iPhones for the 1200 employees here that get them.

    Android integration with gmail is great though. Love me that Inbox app.

    I specifically wanted to test outgoing using our server. When I was in the add other account in GMail, it only allowed options for incoming?

    Or does the app allow you to send via other addresses?

    you add another mail account on the android settings level

    then you just switch accounts in gmail app or whatever mail app you're using
