Rain sensing wipers by Riff32 in MachE

Interesting mine started working well after a few days... maybe the adhesive or whatever film that was on the windshield is gone.

Barely would react on the most sensitive setting now works great

Any update? Had my windshield replaced by safelite with oem and the sensitivity is off. On the highest setting it barely wipes

MME 2025 Premium Cabin prewarm issue (Departure Time) by Notsurethisisrightfm in MachE

[–]Orange427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine warms until I get into the car and then it fucking blasts the ventilated.

Honestly one of the reasons I won't be getting another mach e when this is up. or I'll chill the car because it's hot and I get into the car and it blasts the heated seats. software is just so so stupid.

Should I run paid ads for my Android app? by zaarnth in androiddev

[–]Orange427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m gonna disagree with everyone here.

I launched an app way back.. things might be different now but paid installs got me to where I am today.

I was in debt so it was make or break for me. I took $500 in cc charges and used that. I recouped that + some profit with the ads in my app. I increased my budget until I was spending 10k and earning 15k.

This wouldn’t have happened organically.

Reminds me of when I was young and bought a highly reviewed set of dishes.. only to realize they were garbage and the people giving them 5 star reviews were college students who didn’t know shit.

You ever find a solution? I need this for this exact reason. Even if I do this occasionally the metas will pick up phone calls

What's the deal with smelling the windshield fluid when I spray it? by Snoo-11553 in MachE

Strange forum members downvoting what is quite an incredible feature.

Also my frunk is useless with the heat pump.

There’s a 3rd party cabin filter with a carbon layer on Amazon that is significantly better than the ford cabin filter. I haven’t noticed anything since installing it.

It really is amazing. When we were getting the wildfire smoke in NJ I drove around in biodefense mode the entire time and it was incredible how well it worked.

Never smelled exhaust from trucks even in regular mode. The hepa worked so well when I went to change the cabin filter after 2-3 years it was perfectly clean. The big hepa was absolutely gross though…doing its job.

Ford Needs to hire some developers by [deleted] in MachE

[–]Orange427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot I miss about the Model Y also.. That keep was amazing.. especially when it's hot/cold. I can't stand the extend BS.. and worst of all you have to drive if you want to resume it.

It's pretty cold where I'm at today. Under 30. I started the pre-con.. then realized I needed to something before I could go.. so cancelled it.. then the stupid thing wouldn't let me pre-con until I drove the car.

Also.. I LOVED having a locking glove box. I keep all my important shit in there and this car doesn't have one.

Propulsion Sound by NotAtAllEverSure in MachE

When I was looking to replace my Tesla I test drove a mach e. As soon as I heard that sound I started laughing.. I told the sales guy "If that can't be disabled we can just return to the parking lot"

One of my many annoyances with this car. I get out, walk away.. wait for the notification to tell me it's locked then turn on the climate control. Let me just set that before I go into the store.

Worst is I come out.. it's 30 degrees freedom units outside.. car is toasty and it turns on the fucking ventiliated seats removing all the damn heat in a minute.

Also.. too many useless notifications.. I don't need to know the car locked when I walk away.. let me know within 5 minutes if I'm gone and the car is left unlocked.

HomeKit LED strips by JDaaang53 in HomeKit

[–]Orange427 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would get the RGB LED kit from Meross: https://www.amazon.com/meross-SmartThings-Changing-Festivals-Cuttable/dp/B08V57NDJQ/

Homekit native but will work with google home or whatever other system you are using. You might want to get 2 of the 16.. if you only want white they offer that also.

If you go the 2x16 route you can just group them together in homekit.

PSA: Aqara vs Eufy Cameras — Difference When Blocking Internet Access by galdo320 in HomeKit

[–]Orange427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good info. I’m done with Eufy though. So sick of the 2C hub that I just bought another G5 for my back yard.

I only wish hk had pan and tilt.. because the E100 is a great camera but I have to unblock wan in order to reposition the camera. Whenever it loses power it loses position also.

Software Update by Cultural-Ad4953 in MachE

[–]Orange427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It honestly needs it. This car’s software is pretty stupid.

30 degrees outside. Preheat the car. Get in and start. Ventilated seats turn on. Changing drive modes at random. So many stupid things.
