this may be too intricate for the ultrasimple iphone UI though. could imagine it being easy from a UI POV with fingerprint technology tho.

slocki, the problem is not with ppl using your phone, which is perhaps an edge case like sharing underwear, but with people sharing ipads.

caek, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 09:26 (ten years ago) link

anyone else install the 7 beta on their phone and wanna swap notes? Or is there a different thread for that?

s1ocki, like nearly everyone else, I sometimes have my phone on the table or a charging stand when others are nearby, and may not want saucy texts from my friends appearing unexpectedly when in a business setting (but do the rest of the time).

put a passcode on, and set it to not show texts/messages on the lock screen when they come in (you can have it just say "imessage" or "text message")

The problem with turning on the passcode is it's in play for almost everything, including non-sensitive stuff like my music collection, checking the weather, or reading the news. It slows me down to have to dial the passcode every time I haven't used the phone or iPad for a few minutes, just because I want to secure my email and a few contacts.

you can make it so it only goes into effect after 5, 15, etc minutes

we're up all night to get (s1ocki), Tuesday, 11 June 2013 18:33 (ten years ago) link

it's 1-5 minutes or never

there is a nifty little jailbreak tweak that turns off passcode when you are on a designated wifi network, e.i. at home, at work. Passcode turns on when your phone is out of range. Would be nice is Apple stole this idea.

that's cool... when can i come over

caek, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 20:06 (ten years ago) link

so the first thing i thought of when is aw the new pics was the gmail app on the iphone, thin sans serif on white background, i think this looks good

乒乓, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 20:17 (ten years ago) link

people who are using the dev release seem to be angry

Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 21:07 (ten years ago) link

Yeah got a few dudes here at work that aren't into it (they've had it for like an hour) but all the complaints are like hmmmmmm it's different and colorful and cheesy

Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 21:50 (ten years ago) link

i hope the the thin letter stems look better on the phone itself

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 22:09 (ten years ago) link

Will look like ass on a non-Retina device probably.

Operation Gypsy Dildo (silby), Tuesday, 11 June 2013 23:34 (ten years ago) link

won't run on them. 7 is Retina-only

stet, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 00:08 (ten years ago) link

(apart from iPad mini, but they haven't even shown it on iPad yet)

stet, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 00:08 (ten years ago) link

ah, I didn't put the pieces together there. iPad mini obviously has higher pixel density than an iPad 1 or 2 so I guess it'll look good enough.

the REAL Dr Morbius (silby), Wednesday, 12 June 2013 00:30 (ten years ago) link

the ipads it will support, i think, are 2, "new," fourth gen, and mini

markers, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 00:40 (ten years ago) link

lol the site just lists "ipad with retina display" but i'm gonna guess "the new ipad" will be fine too

markers, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 00:42 (ten years ago) link

considering ipad 2 is also on the list that'd be weird to be 2, 4 only

markers, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 00:42 (ten years ago) link

Are you calling the 3 the 'new ipad'? because it is retina.

I installed the beta on my 4S. I like it so far. Obviously a few bugs and crashes, as to be expected. Auto updating apps in the background is something I missed in the WWDC write-ups, so that was a nice surprise.

sofatruck, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 01:09 (ten years ago) link

yes.

really feel like not enough's been made of the design of the new airport

I mean, seriously, why

cozen, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 18:16 (ten years ago) link

better reception or something

markers, Wednesday, 12 June 2013 18:20 (ten years ago) link

it's just for the extreme and time capsule though

You only need to associate your UDID with a developer account if you want to do a clean install. If you choose 'Update' you are good to go.

More Than a Century With the Polaris Emblem (calstars), Wednesday, 12 June 2013 20:20 (ten years ago) link

"many of the new icons were (...) designed by (...) Apple’s marketing and communications department, not the app design teams."

That might explain it. But it doesn't make it right.

where would I get the ipsw, and isn't there a risk of apple revoking the cert on an unregistered install?

^This is registering with Apple.

sofatruck, Thursday, 13 June 2013 13:29 (ten years ago) link

yes, but calstars is saying you *don't* have to register yr UDID with a developer account if you choose update instead of restore

xp... missed that, sorry

sofatruck, Friday, 14 June 2013 00:05 (ten years ago) link

ok, I sorted it out. running ios 7 on a verizon iphone 5. took about 20 minutes.

first impression: thanks for the windows phone!

FB app is super fast now tho...

truth bomb lawyer mean mean pride (Edward III), Friday, 14 June 2013 04:49 (ten years ago) link

there are still a few small annoyances and a lot of bugs but for the most part it seems like a big improvement

max, Friday, 14 June 2013 10:29 (ten years ago) link

e.g. i STILL don't understand why i have to add an alarm to an event for it to show up in my notifications screen. all reminders should show up there, even, maybe especially ones that dont have alarms associated!!!

max, Friday, 14 June 2013 10:30 (ten years ago) link

can't you give all events an alarm by default? (srs q)

caek, Friday, 14 June 2013 11:05 (ten years ago) link

yes, but not reminders

max, Friday, 14 June 2013 11:08 (ten years ago) link

this is not a huge thing just a really weird gap to me. why cant i just pull down my notifications screen, especially now that they have a "today" vertical, and see every single one of my reminders, even the ones that dont have a specific date/time attached

max, Friday, 14 June 2013 11:09 (ten years ago) link

Slight digression. I got an iPhone 5 this week. It's completely incapable of retaining a signal for more than a minute or so at a time. Causing me no end of grief and possibly the worst phone I've ever owned.

michaellambert, Saturday, 15 June 2013 00:19 (ten years ago) link

AFAIK iphones have a liberal return policy

More Than a Century With the Polaris Emblem (calstars), Saturday, 15 June 2013 01:18 (ten years ago) link

you're probably holding it wrong tbh

the REAL Dr Morbius (silby), Saturday, 15 June 2013 02:01 (ten years ago) link

are you sure you didn't buy an ipod touch

we're up all night to get (s1ocki), Saturday, 15 June 2013 03:44 (ten years ago) link

A couple months ago I started noticing the dreaded "ghosting" image retention fault on my rMBP. It's an ongoing problem with all the retinas using LG-sourced screens - the Apple Support thread for this problem is over 500 pages. I'd been trying to ignore the fault, but it just got too ridiculous, so I took it to the local Apple Store. Had it back the next day, no charge. New Samsung-sourced screen is slightly warmer, but I code/write mostly in white-on-black these days.

There's an online test to see if you have the problem.
