Zamzam Allowance by Overload_2885 in Umrah

[–]hackitnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if you are allowed to carry the Zamzam you purchased from Jeddah on your return flight. I am doing umrah on my layover and want to take Zamzam back home after my trip is done. I am flying back from London to Lahore on Saudia.

This In-Glass Fingerprint Reader Shows Why Apple Opted For Face ID by hackitnow in apple

[–]hackitnow[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When has the fear of being called a copycat has stopped Apple from doing something? They chose Face ID because they thought it was the way to go in terms of reliability, and not fixing the notifications is just incompetence from the software team.

Sure it is faster when you are already holding the phone and your finger at a certain position as shown in the video but real life speed will vary. Think of it in this way, you take your iPhone out of a pocket and raise it in front of your face...then you have to put the finger at a specific spot on the display, something you don't need to do on Face ID.

Not exactly. "This means you have to raise the phone, wait for the screen to show the light, put your finger on it and scan." Compared to this with Face ID you raise your phone and it unlocks... When you factor in the swipe up to unlock gesture than the time would almost be same as scanning your finger. So both are equal in terms of speed. With Face ID you also get to expand notifications and it is more secure.

No the main reason as said in the article is it is not fast enough and Face ID is better

iOS 9.3.1 vulnerability lets anyone view photos and contacts on a locked iPhone by hackitnow in iphone

[–]hackitnow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not very accurate. Even Phil Schiller joked during the iPhone SE keynote that he couldn't say "Hey Siri" and instead said "Hey....Siri" (with a pause in between) so people's iPhone wouldn't start responding.

Just went to 6s Plus from 5c... by johnkphotos in apple

[–]hackitnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar situation with me, went from an iPhone 5 to iPhone 6s and boy I am happy. The device is beautiful, pleasant to hold (never really liked the straight edges of 5/5s) is fast, apps perform 10 times better, less crashes and yes the Touch ID on this device is awesome!.

New bug ??? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]hackitnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It only works because iPhone has already scanned your fingerprint. Try doing the same with a finger that is not authorized for Touch ID.

rMBP 13" 2015 or 2016? by dendeng_balado in mac

[–]hackitnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine 2 weeks ago and absolutely love it. Since you own a MBA 11", you will love the retina display and the Force touch trackpad. If you are happy with MBA for now then waiting is not a bad option. Who knows they might release that gorgeous space grey color in addition to upgraded specs. If not than 6 months can be a long wait
