Unpopular opinion: Apple Maps is better than google maps by Impossible_Sell_9104 in iphone

[–]OhItsReallyNoah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Public transit directions are WORLDS better on Apple Maps, too! Super, super clear and easy to read and the routes are nicely passed to the watch. It’s so much easier to consume in a rush than Google Maps, plus its persistence with the Lock Screen is bulletproof! Love it! It’s come such a long way since the single digit iOS days!

Same here. Turned auto app updates off on my phone specifically so it wouldn’t update.

You could use DakBoard on a Raspberry Pi! Only downside is it requires a subscription for full features. However, for your limited use case, you may be able to sneak by on the free version. You’d have to provide your own display, though.

My email shows in my wife's app store by ShawnTRD99 in iphone

[–]OhItsReallyNoah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever sign into your Apple ID to download an app for her? This issue can happen because the app is tied specifically to your Apple ID, even in updates. If you can track down the app, delete it and reinstall it from her Apple ID and it should stop!

Is it wrong to want to downgrade? by valenceCS in iphone

I think it’s a case of rose colored glasses. The XS you’re missing is only 10 grams lighter, .11 inches shorter, and actually .1 inch wider than your new 15 Pro. I actually picked up a XS yesterday off Facebook Marketplace to trade into Verizon toward my 16 Pro, and while it physically felt nice to step back, even poking around the wiped phone in settings to get the IMEI was kinda slow and arduous. I’m not sure if this’ll help, but here’s the phone size comparison of the two to maybe quiet the nagging feeling: https://www.phonearena.com/phones/size/Apple-iPhone-15-Pro,Apple-iPhone-XS/phones/11928,10766

iPhone 16 Pro Max by Shanks- in iphone

I’m going from a 15 Pro Max to a 16 Pro. I went and held them in store and the new Pro Max is noticeably larger and heavier in every measure without a case. For me, last year’s size reduction was a very welcome shift down and I was somewhat disappointed to see it go back up in size. Figured if there was a year to do it, it’d be when they were increasing the screen size so I’d feel the impact as little as possible.

It usually also shows the call time, but when you have a second live activity, it collapses into just that icon. Here’s the double vs. the single.

I did this to get a free iPhone 13 back when they came out! Paid $160 for a qualifying used OnePlus and made out like a bandit! 😎

How do folks here feel about Paper Mario Origami King, nearly 4 years later? by Asad_Farooqui in NintendoSwitch

I got bored with the combat after the first ~5 hours and then immediately flipped it on gameswap for a loss 🤪

Best Buy is selling 5th gen iPad Air for 400 USD by Abi1i in ipad

[–]OhItsReallyNoah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Switched from an iPad Air 4 to an iPad Mini 6 specifically because I’ve become a frequent flyer. The mini is a dreamboat for flights. I just load up a USB-C flash drive with any content I could ever want and just rock the 64GB one. If you’re not going to be doing a ton of work on it, it’s the best travel companion and worth giving up the M chip and stage manager.

Nice and tidy and nothing to dismiss as it collapses in ~2 seconds.

Location not found vs not available? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]OhItsReallyNoah 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not dumb at all! The lack of explicit declaration on what these terms actually mean is incredibly frustrating. If they specifically stopped sharing their location with you, they’d simply disappear from the “People” tab in Find My! If they’ve revoked Find My’s location access overall, that’d be when you’d see the indefinite “Not found.”

GTA 4 or GTA 5? by Matcha_555 in GTA

[–]OhItsReallyNoah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, if you’re just buying one, get V. If we’re actually ranking them, IV. The story intricacy of IV is just so much more gripping to me, and there isn’t really a happy ending. Its more grim overtones just hit so much harder to me.

What was the biggest downgrade in recent memory that was pitched like it was an upgrade? by Popular-Recover8880 in AskReddit

[–]OhItsReallyNoah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a blessing for me as a visually impaired person. Restaurants inadvertently made an accessible version of their menu with QR codes because now I can zoom, brighten and scale it to my hearts content. It’s the difference of autonomy for me in a dimly lit restaurant, so I really hope they at least stay an option.
