    Apple Intelligence Question

    Hello all, I had a quick thought about Apple Intelligence and type to Siri. On all of the Apple Intelligence marketing, the Type-to-Siri UI gives predictions to what you may want before typing, but with the current Apple Intelligence we have, we don’t have them. Does anyone know how to turn them...

    AI on a Mac (in the eu) but not on iPhone?

    Hey there! So, I couldn’t find anyone else with the same issue, so I thought I’d share my experience. I have the iPhone 15 Pro (and other supported devices) and the M3 Pro Mac Pro 14”.

    Mail notifications

    When I dismiss a Mail notification on my Apple Watch, should it also disappear from the notification center of my iPhone? Because this is not happening with the Mail and messages app, the rest of the notifications from other apps do disappear from the iPhone if I discard them from the Apple...

    Change to alarms in iOS18?

    Hi all, prior to the iOS18 update, I set my alarm in Health > Sleep > Full Schedule to vibration only. This would vibrate my watch (that I'm wearing at night) but the phone would stay silent. Now, both the watch and the phone are vibrating at the time of the alarm. Was there some change in...

    Apple should switch some app names around

    On macOS, the file browser is called Finder. On all other systems, the file browser is called Files. I think the app for browsing files should be called Files. On all platforms, the app for finding stuff is called Find My. I think an app for finding stuff should be called Finder. Wouldn’t it...

    Erased my OS by mistake.

    I have somehow erased my iOS operating system off my iMac 27! I had followed a few YT videos, but still screwed up! Currently, I have on screen .. a white screen with a grey ‘no-entry’ sign in the middle. I cannot get passed that screen, and I’ve tried everything possible on apple support and...

    This UI bug has been driving me crazy for years!!!

    I swear for about 2-3 years this bug occurs where very intermittently the rounded corners of notifications will be sharp and rectangular. It also occurs on my iPad. I’ve transferred phones, started from scratch, and none of it fixes it. I’ve also reported to Apple feedback for the same amount of...

    Trying to add my email and phone number to the lock screen

    I thought this would be really simple. But I digress. My thinking was to add my email address and a phone number to the lock screen on my iPhone. My phone is obviously protected with a passcode, so if I lose it (in some good neighborhood) and whoever finds it wants to return it, they should be...

    I hate that wallpapers get removed with each version

    The iOS 17, 16, 15, etc wallpapers were really nice. But every update, the last version’s wallpaper just gets thrown away. Why? Do they seriously take up that much space? Or is it some exclusivity thing? It bothers me a lot. Sure, I could download a photo of the old wallpapers, but it won’t...

    Apple is heading for a decline.

    The past 12 months really hasn’t been kind to Apple. The lawsuits, the steps back in their products and ecosystem as a result, one negative headline after another, struggling stocks. But on top of all that, Apple isn’t feeling exciting anymore. Now before you start keyboard mashing to say how...
