I like most of the iOS 16 stuff, but now every time you delete a text message it asks you if you want to report it as junk. So all the 2fa texts I get and delete everyday I have that extra tap to say no I don’t want to report this as junk.

I installed iOS 16 for no good reason and I can report zero perceivable difference apart from a bolder non-Helvetica font for the lock screen time. At least it's not sucking down the battery.

I would have upgraded to the new iPhone if Apple had changed it to a USB-C port. Thanks, Steve Jobs.

iOS 16's big deal for me is being able to copy/paste text out of a video. Every conference video, PowerPoint deck, etc. is suddenly and amazingly useful now.
― Elvis Telecom, Wednesday, 14 September 2022 07:12 (one year ago) link
I do use that a lot from photos and unselectable text on webpages, since whenever it came in (iOS 15?). But I wish you could do it from a screenshot as soon as you take one, rather than having to save it to Photos first then get it from there.
― Alba, Wednesday, 14 September 2022 07:25 (one year ago) link
Yes - also I wish you could do it on a Mac? Maybe you can but I haven’t figured out how

Coming in macOS Ventura next month.
― Elvis Telecom, Wednesday, 14 September 2022 08:41 (one year ago) link
I bought a Mac app called Picatext to do it. Maybe I bought it when I was in the US though, as it now tells me it's not available to buy in my region.
― Alba, Wednesday, 14 September 2022 08:43 (one year ago) link
Good news about Ventura, Elvis - thank you. Though it'll probably be ages before it'll be installed on my work Mac.
― Alba, Wednesday, 14 September 2022 08:45 (one year ago) link
I have a minor irritation that notifications are now relegated to the bottom of the Lock Screen where they can be easily missed.
― Luna Schlosser, Wednesday, 14 September 2022 09:33 (one year ago) link
i think picatext got sherlocked and they gave up?

Just updated to 16 and added calendar and weather widgets to the lock screen. The two left-aligned widgets under the center-aligned date and time, it bothers me.
― death generator (lukas), Wednesday, 14 September 2022 16:45 (one year ago) link
The restrictions on the widget positioning seem really unnecessary, open up the grid you babies

Big album art is back on the lockscreen, so I’m happy.

what??? oh shit i gotta upgrade then
― Nhex, Thursday, 15 September 2022 02:32 (one year ago) link
Yes but it toggles back to tiny artwork if you nudge the screen Sigh
― calstars, Thursday, 15 September 2022 05:51 (one year ago) link
Ok that stupid ass photo cutout feature was worth the upgrade alone, wasting too much time on this

I absolutely understand the unfortunate need for warnings about AirTags and AirPods being used for nefarious purposes, but HOLY SHIT Apple I do not need three days of notifications about my wife's AirPods every time we have them with us on a car ride.

here's something i hate about apple: by winnowing out the headphone jack, they have made it socially acceptable (at least in my big city) for people who can't afford airpods to just use the onboard phone speakers. so everywhere you go, people are blaring tiktoks and youtube videos and voicemails and whatever. the train is more of a nightmare than usual and i blame fucking apple.

was waiting for that argument. The difference is that the playing of your youtube/tiktok/voicemail isn't a transgressive act on the subway these days; it's become generally accepted (if loathed) from grandmothers, children, hipsters, explicit assholes and distracted deliverypeople alike. everybody's doing it!

Dude, just put in your own AirPods with noise canceling so you don’t hear the noise of the poor.

There are a few king-fu reset techniques to coax unresponsive phones into life, you might need a few button presses
― assert (matttkkkk), Thursday, 29 September 2022 11:41 (one year ago) link
Heh. The thing that worries me is that it does show the read almost dead battery icon that is supposed to mean it is charging, but only when I hit the start button, otherwise it goes to black again.
― Ride On Proserpina (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 29 September 2022 11:43 (one year ago) link
If I disconnect then I see the cable thingy telling me to plug it in again but then back to black. All of which says to me that it is trying to recharge but not succeeding.
― Ride On Proserpina (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 29 September 2022 11:46 (one year ago) link
have you assiduously cleaned out the charging slot on your phone? dust can get in there and interfere with the connection
― Tracer Hand, Thursday, 29 September 2022 11:52 (one year ago) link
That is often a problem but not recently. Maybe I should just use a Qi charger? Otherwise I might just get the battery replaced.
― Ride On Proserpina (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 29 September 2022 11:56 (one year ago) link
In addition to everything else I need an authentication app on that device.
