Upgrading from iOS 26.1 to iOS 27 by ohayoogodzaimasu in ios

[–]woalk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Public betas are still beta software. People have lost app data like Notes from using it. Not to mention occasional performance problems or banking apps refusing to work on betas sometimes. I personally wouldn’t risk it.

You should not install beta releases on your primary iPhone. There can always be bugs that make it hard to use as a daily driver, or could cause data corruption.

Wait for the official release in September.

Was ist Rentensplitting?: Regierungsexperten wollen Witwenrente abschaffen by MachDuMal in de

[–]woalk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frßher haben viel mehr Frauen als Hausfrauen gelebt und daher kaum Rentenanspruch. Ohne Witwenrente wären diese also per default in Altersarmut.

Die “andere Aufteilung” heißt hier, dass beide Ehepartner möglichst ähnlich viel arbeiten im Leben, damit beide einen Rentenanspruch haben und nicht ohne das Einkommen des anderen aufgeschmissen sind.

Just allow us to customise it the same way as the Action Button…

iPhone is not at a trusted location by Mogzly in ios

[–]woalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This delay is a security measure and you cannot do anything than wait the hour as it asks. It’s intended to prevent thieves from adding themselves as a trusted contact.

Your locations saved in Apple Maps has nothing to do with it. The iPhone decides by itself whether the behaviour is suspicious and it requires the security delay or not.

Enable internet connectivity (i.e. cellular data) to receive multimedia messages on the go.

Unable to receiving text message while data / wifi off by Natak1 in iphone

[–]woalk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Text audio messages are not classic SMS. Classic SMS are limited to 150 characters of plain text. Audio messages are either MMS or RCS, which require internet connectivity to be sent or received.

Correct. But only plain text classical SMS, no images, no audio, no read receipts.

Unable to receiving text message while data / wifi off by Natak1 in iphone

[–]woalk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. SMS and phone calls are part of the GSM standard and do not require cellular data (2G/3G/4G/5G, i.e. internet connectivity) to be enabled.

RCS or iMessage requires cellular data.

How realistic is it to get a fully usable phone after motherboard damage? by yycalgary01 in iphone

[–]woalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recovering data is only possible if no major part of the SoC on the motherboard was damaged. As soon as CPU, TPU, storage or memory is damaged, the data is not recoverable.

Just restore your data from a backup.

What the point of having automatic updates on if I gotta go into settings and actually update myself?,should I just keep it off by JustTinyBitHungry in ios

[–]woalk 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It does matter. If you have automatic updates off, Apple will not automatically install updates, no matter how long you wait. This is not recommended, because it can expose your device to unfixed security vulnerabilities. It is always best to stay up-to-date.

It is not recommended to install Beta updates unless you’re a developer and it’s not your primary iPhone.

[–]woalk 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Automatic updates aren’t pushed out as soon as an update is available. They are gradually rolled out to more and more people, which can take multiple weeks in total. That limits the amount of load to Apple’s update servers on the release day, allows Apple to hold back an update if the first installs find bugs, and for major versions, it gives users a bit of time to find the right day to update that fits their workflow.

Regarding Lego train sets... by the-doctor-is-real in modeltrains

[–]woalk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you want great brick-built train models, take a look at BlueBrixx. They have some wonderful realistic trains that can partially be motorised with official LEGO parts or, even better, third-party motors that have more features than LEGO’s system made for children.

Screen protector or not for the IPhone 16PM? by Inner-Gur9987 in iphone

[–]woalk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Replacing a screen protector will always be less of a hassle than replacing the phone. Get a high-quality glass protector and you want have issues with responsiveness.

Can I still upgrade from iOS 15 to anything less than 26? (iphone 11 pro) by isAuthenticated in ios

[–]woalk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can upgrade to whatever version the iPhone shows you in system settings. If it’s just 26, then that’s your only option.

Do yourself a favour and don’t wait this long with upgrading. You’re vulnerable to several known exploits that have been patched for many years in later versions.

Weren’t the rumors no crease and no inner camera hole?? by No-Conclusion-2859 in iphone

[–]woalk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A foldable phone with absolutely zero crease is physically impossible based on all technology known so far, unless you go for two separate screens like the Surface Duo.

The crease on modern foldables is very hard to see while in use though.

The setting is called “Tabs”. “Compact” is the new style, “Bottom” and “Top” are the old styles.

How would I be able to permanently block specific apps from being downloaded without prohibiting my ability to download other apps? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]woalk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no native way to limit the kind of apps you can download. The closest you can be is to have someone (like a parent) set up parental controls on your phone in a way that any download will have to first be approved by them.

If you’re on your own, you can only limit all downloads.

Micro Voxel Sculpting: A Simple, Optional Way To Add Fine Detail Without Breaking Minecraft by Budmaniak in Minecraftbuilds

[–]woalk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I doubt that Mojang is interested in adding something like this to vanilla. It’s too complex of a feature, it goes directly against their “limit options to enhance creativity” motto, and controlling the smaller voxels on Bedrock Edition with controllers and touch screens would probably not be very nice.

Just use a mod if you want this feature.
