## What Jamie wrote

A lot of good details answered here on how the Apple Card will work. MacStories [has a very good writeup](https://www.macstories.net/news/apple-card-the-macstories-overview/) as well. I’m more intrigued about what Apple is doing here than I thought I would be. If you go way back to when the iPhone was introduced, Apple introduced [Visual Voicemail](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201436). Today that is all just assumed, but back then voicemail worked with key presses. Apple changed the usability of voicemail in a big way, and made that the default. What they are doing with credit cards feels a little bit like that.
