Tim Cook says he uses every Apple product every day — how does that work?

While discussing his daily routine, Tim Cook told Ben Cohen in this WSJ Magazine interview that "every day" he uses "every product." In the story, he mentions using an iPhone, an Apple Watch, AirPods, and then, for work, two different MacBooks, an iMac, a Vision Pro, and an iPad Pro.

But what would it look like to truly use everything Apple makes every single day? Imagine using every variant of hardware Apple makes in one day, with or without Beats. Then, there are the accessories. Cook surely uses the polishing cloth, Apple's most compatible product, every day, and probably this VESA mount for the Pro Display XDR.

You'd need to use all of its services also, and I don't just mean Apple Music, Arcade, and Apple TV Plus. iTunes Match, AppleCare Plus, and Messages via satellite all count. You also need to use all of its software, and there is so much of that. Sure, you've got standard iPhone apps like Messages and Photos, but what about Clips or Automator?

This is one big puzzle, but as a person who consciously decided to cut out a lot of tech friction by going all in on Apple's ecosystem a few years ago, I might be able to piece some of it together.

WSJ Magazine writes that Cook uses his iPhone first.

It's sitting atop his nightstand in silent mode when the chief executive officer of Apple, the most valuable company in the history of the world, reaches for his device and starts triaging his inbox.

6AM: In no world am I triaging my inbox first thing. But I wake up with my iPhone 15 Pro's alarm, at least for now. I tap snooze on my Apple Watch a few times before selecting stop to trigger an Apple Shortcuts automation and turn on the light through Apple Home while Apple Music plays music on two HomePod Minis in the kitchen. I get coffee, let the dogs out, then scroll social media and check overnight notifications on my iPhone. With the iOS 18.1 beta on my phone, those are often summarized by Apple Intelligence, which is sometimes helpful.
