![]() ![]() The quality of your content will always get better with practice. Making great content is a process that requires you to present your best self inside a compelling video, podcast, stream or whatever you are doing. Beast, Pokimane, MKBHD and Joe Findlay all have in common? Our first videos were terrible. I was worried that a rejection of my videos was a rejection of me, personally.īut that’s simply not true. But, as a content creator, I didn’t have to worry if I was going to flub a line or if people weren’t going to laugh at the jokes. That didn’t mean that I wasn’t equally anxious about every performance. As a teenager, I spent a lot of my time on stage in school plays and as an improviser. Either way, I recommend Yoink wholeheartedly.It’s 2023 and, how does it go? New Year, New You? Well what if the old you is just fine, but you don’t know how to present yourself to people yet? Don’t get down about it. If you’ve got a Mac you’ll want a license there as well, but given the fact that there’s a Handoff feature between the apps, it might be worth to pony up an additional $9. Yoink sits in my dock, and it might very well earn a place in yours as well. ![]() What I like is having a dedicated place to drop stuff I know I’ll need later, and getting that help to pull down images from a URL sure helps as well. Most of the app’s features can be reproduced in Files. You might not have any need for a file drawer such as Yoink. Very useful for someone like me, no need to hunt URLs to images using a web inspector, most of the time Yoink gets the job done. It seems to depend on how the image is included on a site, but overall, I’ve had great success with this feature. What’s not doable is hitting the share sheet on a linked image on a site, open Yoink, and have it pull down just the image. It fits my workflow perfectly, but yes, it’s completely doable with just the Files app. Whatever I know I need, right then and there, I can stick in Yoink, and it’s always there, up top, sorted after most recently added. Navigating the Files app can certainly be a bother. Or anywhere in the Files app, for that matter, but the thing is, I’ve got gigabytes, possibly terabytes, of data in iCloud. Now, I could just as well have saved that exported file (step 4) to, say, the Downloads folder in the Files app. Thanks to the fact that the Files app support multiple sources, I can just pick Yoink here, and easily pick the file.I pop over to Substack, which I use for the newsletter, and use their interface to pick an image from the Files app.Said export gets shared to Yoink, which sits there in my share sheet.I open the photo in Pixelmator Photo, possibly for touch-ups, but more often to resize and export it in a more web friendly size.I take a photo that I’ll use for an issue of Switch to iPad.I can’t say that it does something crucial that I couldn’t do with the Files app only, but it makes my life so much easier. I’ve been using Yoink, an app available for both iOS/iPadOS and macOS, for the past couple of months, and it’s wonderful. And the Files app has the benefit of being tightly integrated into iPadOS, meaning that it’s easy to, say, upload a file in a web interface from the Downloads folder.ĭoes that mean that there’s no room for file drawer apps anymore? You can easily get to the most recent files added, which means that downloading and/or saving a file of any kind to Files will make it easy to find. I’ve written about that in the past, in one of the earliest issues of the Switch to iPad newsletter ( please subscribe).įast-forward to today, and the Files app will actually do for most people. So, you installed a file drawer app, and shared (using the share sheet) your files to said app, and hoped that whatever app you wanted to move the file to would support importing it. It was a mess, filled with workarounds and the like, before the Files app we have today, but honestly, afterwards too because even though it’s getting better, Files isn’t what it should or could be. If you wanted to upload an edited image to a web interface, but you had your edited photo in Pixelmator, you were kind of stuck. There was a time when iOS and iPadOS was less evolved, and you needed something commonly called file drawer apps to bounce files around. ![]()
