Back on the 13PM this weekend because I’m the only android guy out of all the coaches on my kids football team and I kept messing up the videos in our group chat 😂
Yep, one of the biggest perks of iOS is being “part of the club”. It’s not necessarily a feature. It’s more so a self created exclusivity. They knowingly made it looked down on to be a green bubble. And if one person in a group chat is an android user, it ruins the messaging experience and capabilities for everyone in that chat.
Yea and I don’t even care about being a part of the club or the whole green bubble thing. I just wish Apple would enable rcs for cross platform messaging. iMessage will still have exclusive features for them and honestly it won’t cause them a loss in sales but it would get them up to date with current messaging standards. I really don’t like iOS anymore but looks like I’m going to have to use it to some extent for the time being.
Of course they could. But what’s the incentive for them to? They know iMessage and the ecosystem is a big reason iPhone users don’t leave for android. Enabling RCS just makes the transition to android easier.
My condolences Tig. She's beautiful and no doubt had a great life.Picture of our great dog Lady, that we had to put down last nightBest family friendly dog ever, such a sweetheart, and breaks my heart losing her.
I've been thinking about this... and I'm curious as to how Apple could implement RCS.
Ran into same issue, but clearing cache for the phone app and Google Play Services resolved my issue.I installed the May update yesterday. Did Google disable "Call Screener" again? I had several calls come in and call screener did not answer. I checked within the phone app and under spam calls there is no option for call screener. Ugh.
Omg love love ..I can see myself squeezing that fella ... beautiful dog
I’ve actually had that happen a few times in the last week with Siri on iOS. Maybe AI has become sentient! They’re listening in on us.
OMG a big dog on your dining room table?!! I see he’s a deep rich brown. Lol he probably thinks he’s being stealthy and blending in! 😆 At least that looks like a good sturdy wood table.
Thank you! I’m doing well. We have spent the last month or so settling my mom into assisted living and then yesterday we had her over for dinner that my husband cooked. Her dementia is such that the stimulating environment of her new home is helping revive her personality and pulling her back a bit from the decline my dad reported dealing with during their Covid isolation. She’s located along the school route, so we can pop in and see her often after pick up. We are all rediscovering her wicked sense of humor. She’s still hard of hearing so we got to use our outdoor voices indoors at dinner and that was kind of amusing. We had fun making plans for summer outings. It was good to see her looking forward to things again. That was a huge gift itself.

Of course I got lovely sentimental gifts. And appropriately for this tech forum I can say I did get a very nice gift of technology. I got those Apple headphones that wear a bra. Don’t laugh…for the life of me as I am typing this I can’t remember what they’re called. I want to say AirPods but those are the tiny ones that go in the ear, right? Apple and their stupid names mess me up. HeadPods? What’s the one shaped like a toilet paper roll called? Okay this is going to drive me nuts if I don’t look it up. Brb
Oh of course…AirPods Max.
The toilet paper roll is called a HomePod. The one that looks like a grapefruit is HomePod mini. Got it.
Sorry if it’s not a phone I really don’t pay close attention and am just like any other Luddite about the names.
Seems the fingerprint scanner issue varies based on who you ask. It was mostly good early on, hit and miss occasionally for me, but I rarely ever have an issue with my fingerprint not registering now. Maybe it has gotten better or maybe my mind is trained to now hit the sweet spot everytime. Not quite as good as the S22 Ultra FPS but not an issue in my opinion.
So sorry for your loss!Picture of our great dog Lady, that we had to put down last night
