    IOS Keyboard as trackpad to insert text

    I just learned that if you deep-press on the #IOS keyboard space bar, the keyboard works like a trackpad, so you can insert text without using your finger on the screen. Apparently, works on any iPhone or iPad with 3D Touch. (So, not the iPhone XR, apparently.) Solves #1 thing I hated about IOS...

    Sharpness in Ipad Pro 11”

    I don't know if I‘m losing sight, but I have the 11” iPad Pro, and I'm just noticing that the text is not as defined as I read it in 2018 iPad or in 10.5” iPad Pro. I don't know if it is about the font rendering, or it's a wrong perception. https://flic.kr/p/2a1MxPA https://flic.kr/p/P2aAQ8

    How to scale MacOS to any size you like

    Just in case people don't know how to do this... I was trying to find a way to enlarge MacOS on my external 1440p monitor, as all the UI text was a little too small to read comfortably. But do so in a way that didn't result in the blurring that happens when you reduce the monitor resolution. I...

    Sending "AWAY" text messages?

    Is there no way at all to automatically send replies to text messages? I will be going "off grid" for some time and want people to know that I am away and not able to respond when they text me. Would this be an iphone thing? Or a Verizon thing? Is it even possible?

    iPhone Playnow - Watch together

    Hi, we just updated Playnow - Watch together. We often crowd around a tiny phone screen to watch a new video with their friends.

    Hi, I have experience using a 23.8" lenovo monitor with 2560x1440 (123.41 DPI) resolution on my mac. This resolution is great, but text is too small and apple gives no option to scale text. So I am thinking of purchasing a 27" with 2560x1440 (108.79 DPI) and that should solve problem, due to...

    I've only upgraded to Sierra from Mavericks recently, but ever since text in the dock and a few other places (e.g. the Notes App) has a rectangular underlay, which is sometimes darker and sometimes brighter than the surrounding area. I've attached an example. Zapping PRAM and booting in Safe...

    text jumps to previous marker position

    Macbook Pro mid 2014. When I am writing text, in Open Office, Gmail or whatever, my text suddenly, and for reasons I cannot understand jumps back to an earlier position, probably one that I had gone to with the marker. I've seen that, if I move the arrow off the page it helps, but this is...

    Any way to set bold/large text for macOS and apps?

Especially in the iTunes Store, that would make a huge difference. I already use f.lux, because the warmer temperature helps the...

    So, I was on a plane the other day, connected to the WiFi and I received a text from a friend. I replied and he said he received it.

    Accidentally deleted all my friend's years-old text messages on my iPhone 5. How do I retrieve them?

    This isn't as simple as it sounds, so let me give you a little backstory: 1.) I accidentally deleted all of my best friend's texts. Instead of selecting the individual texts I wanted to delete and pressing the trash bin, I ended up stupidly hitting "clear all" and deleted all of them. :( 2.) I...
