I have Good Lock, and didn't even know this was a thing. Lol. Going to change it now.
Got a tip for us?

Here's a screenshot. Some cool customization tweaks. I already use a few of them.

So after five days or so of owning the phone, and having the adaptive power saving feature turned on, it automatically went into a power save mode this afternoon. Is there any way to see an itemized list of what settings it automatically tweaked?

This is my big gripe with the phone and I had the same issue on the s20. At random times it automatically goes from optimized to medium. First at 68% now at 59% arggggh
Interesting. I honestly haven't noticed a difference. It was set at optimized, then it automatically went to medium, which I'm fine with, if a) I can't notice any differences based on my usage and b) its correctly switching.
Yeah, that's the same thing I have turned on, and it automatically kicked into some kind lower power mode (but it doesn't seem like it just went with a default medium setting, but more of a custom power mode I have no visibility to), which again, I'm cool with if I can't tell a difference. I don't do anything really taxing on my phone. The most taxing thing is likely watching video.
While I agree that many features get laughed at until they show up on one’s preferred platform, which always is just as hilarious, I think the refresh rate thing is a feature that different people rate or perceive very differently. I have 120Hz on my iPad Pro but not on my iPhone; it’s not something I ever think about. The most important “cannot unsee” feature for me is OLED. My first OLED phone was the Note II, going to an iPhone 7 Plus after that was plain painful. But 120 Hz honestly isn’t a huge deal for me.
edit: and yes, the iPad Pro doesn’t have OLED but in that case I’m ok with it most of the time, since I mostly use it for work. Whenever I want to watch a movie on it though, I wish it was a Tab 7. An OLED/microled iPad mini is my current wet dream.

Same here. Actually it struck me just the other day that I don’t spend hours obsessing over the order of the apps on my iPhone home screen anymore. I almost don’t give a crap where they the heck they are now, except a few key ones that I want to always have immediately available on the first page. For the rest...swipe down, type one letter, if Siri hasn’t suggested the right app already, which happens maybe 80% of the time...and boom. They can do what they want with the app drawer as far as I’m concerned, personally I’m never going to need it
I can definitely completely agree with this. My wife can't really perceive the difference between my 120Hz Note, and her 60Hz iPhone. At least not as much as I can. And I could never really perceive a difference between my iPad Pro at 120Hz and my iPhone at 60Hz. Not sure why I see the huge impact I do on my Note, but it's incredible and I love it on this device. I reset her iPhone 11 recently and scrolling through settings looked absolutely awful by comparison.

I don't get how people don't notice it for me it's a massive difference each to their own I guess
I can’t say if I’d be able to tell the difference as I’ve not used a 120hz phone before.
I’m thinking of getting the Ultra when there’s a huge sale on it. Since I have an Apple Watch, all my notifications could go to the Watch (I can’t lose iMessage) while I’m using the Ultra. Is this a ridiculous idea? Or would it be better to just get a new iPad Pro instead?
I know that. I’d keep my iPhone so that I could get notifications on my Apple Watch.
I don't see any difference between my iPhone 11 pro and my IPad pro 11" 60 v 120HZ.
Where i did see a difference was when i had a air 3 v 11 pro iPad.
Beats me though how a few in the iPhone threads reckon they don't see a difference between lcd and oled, think they are viewing with their wallet.

I think if put an option to bypass the lock screen with a few different options it would be awesome. Like this jailbreak tweak, autounlockx I had it set to immediately unlock the phone when I had no notifications and it was awesome. seriously needs to implement something like that.
LOL...so to get what Android has had for years...I have to jailbreak my iphone? Apple just needs to let people have a simple setting option in FaceID to take straight tot he home screen or have to swipe first. How hard could this be?
Not very, but Apple says no, so it’s no. This is what I really don’t like.
Why can’t I have a number row on my
Keyboard, even with a 3rd party keyboard?
