[Pokemon game sound]
I like the shirt.
Thank you. I went to Target yesterday 'cos, you know,
it's very, very close and I was walking over.
"Okay, let's just-
I shouldn't do this, but I'm going to go to the men's section
and see if there's any Pokemon shirts."
[Tim laughs.]
And, yeah, here we are with, I don't know,
the 40th shirt that I don't need.
It's cool.
And I just started playing Pokemon Go in the cafe.
Really?
Yes. I didn't play it before. Well, I did, I tried it out,
but I didn't have, you know, enough data and all of that.
And then somebody was telling me,
"How many Pokemon have you caught?"
And I go, "Well, I haven't played it."
And she's like, "Well..."
And I thought about, wait, I have unlimited data.
"Oh, there's wifi in there."
And now I just spent the last 15 minutes catching all the-
So there's Pokemon in the cafe?
Yeah.
Okay. Hey!
Naturally, birds on the food.
I'll have to check it out.
And I'm just like,
"Sure, I will take that Pidgey off of your sandwich."
[Tim laughs.] That's great.
So, tell me about the Apple products that you're using.
Okay, so, mostly I use the MacBook.
Naturally. I'm always on a laptop.
Everything I do is always online.
And the iPad, iPhone,
and then I started using the Apple Watch again.
'Cos I started going to the gym, so...
Watches are my worst habit of not wearing.
So now I'm getting back into it, though.
Yeah. My watch helped me lose 30 pounds.
I try not to get too focused on statistics
or the technical stuff.
Yeah.
The calories in, calories out.
But, you know, sometimes I'm curious
just about how much am I burning at the gym,
because I've actually started incorporating-
instead of just doing cardio,
now I'm doing more weight training.
So I'm just, like, I'm kind of curious now.
Yeah. So, what's your passion?
A lot of advocacy towards deaf stuff,
mostly closed captioning
because I did start off as a makeup vlogger on YouTube,
but after a couple years of doing that, I was just like,
"Okay, I like it, but it's not really something
that I really want to talk about anymore."
That's already overdone on YouTube.
I was thinking, "Well, what am I gonna do on YouTube now?"
Because I couldn't think of anything else.
I've been doing this for so many years, you know?
And then I was like, wait a minute,
I've tried to watch videos, but then, you know,
I don't always get everything
because there isn't too much captioning on there.
It's improved now, but way back when,
not really all that much.
So I started talking about deaf stuff and closed captioning.
Are you using Clips at all?
I have been testing it out.
When it first came out, I was kind of testing it out.
Yeah, it was pretty accurate.
For me, because of my deaf accent, not so much,
which is understandable.
But I've seen other people use it,
and I'm like okay, I can get into this.
Yeah, yeah. I really love it.
I think it's a great product and a really fun one to use.
It's really good if you make
small clips on Twitter or something,
like announcement things.
Philip DeFranco was testing it out and I was like,
"Holy smokes! Oh. Okay."
So, yeah, I really appreciate, you know, like,
there is a section on the accessibility thing that says,
hey, you can automatically turn on captions.
So I can go on Facebook or something
and I don't have to fiddle with Facebook
to try to find the captions, it just shows up.
And then I heard that, uhm,
that movies and stuff on iTunes have captioning on them, too.
They do.
I haven't tested that out yet, but my friends have,
so I'm like, "Okay, that's good. I like that."
Do you use Apple TV?
I actually don't.
Check it out. Check it out.
I will, I will.
We just have a regular TV,
and I'm too attached to my little MacBook.
It's so portable.
I love MacBook. I love MacBook.
I got mine two years ago,
and I'm just like, yeah, I'm not going back.
I'm good. I'll keep it.
Once you get used to --
I mean, the weight itself is unbelievable,
that you can pack so much technology
in that kind of form factor.
Yeah, it's really cool.
And it's beautiful.
My viewers will have this kind of question
and I and they will want to know,
why does Apple care about accessibility?
What is that main thing,
I guess, if that makes any sense?
That's a great question.
Apple was founded on giving people power to create things,
to do things that they couldn't do without those tools.
And we've always viewed accessibility as a human right.
And so just like human rights are for everyone,
we want our products to be accessible for everyone.
It's a basic core value of Apple.
We don't make products for a particular group of people.
We make products for everybody.
And we feel very strongly that everyone deserves
an equal opportunity and equal access.
So we don't look at this thing
from a return on investment point of view.
I've been asked that before.
The answer is no, I've never looked at that.
We don't care about that.
It's like, this is for everybody- [fumbles] sorry.
It's like we make products for everybody, but oh, by the way,
here's another group of regular normal people,
but here is some stuff to help you out.
That's awesome.
Exactly. Exactly.
A lot of these accessibility features, everyone can use.
Like, uh, with HomeKit, I use HomeKit every day
and control my house with my voice.
And there are so many of these things.
That's cool.
Yeah, it's really cool, and uh...
So that's how we look at it.
It's a basic core value of Apple.
Yeah. I like that. I like that.
Thank you for sitting down with us
and having a little one-on-one chat.
It's so great to have you at Apple.
Please stay in touch.
I want to know what you're doing with the watch.
Yes, I will.
Thank you.
Yay. [Tim: Thank you.]
