iOS

I’ve been wishing for this for years, but it seems I’m to only one that finds them annoying. Hoping maybe someone knows a setting somewhere I’ve missed or possibly something introduced in iOS 18.

To be clear, I’m not talking about Messages notifications you get notifying you of a message while you’re not in the app; I’m talking about the send/receive sounds the phone plays while you’re in the Messages app texting with someone.

TYIA! 🙏

This is driving me nuts. I think it’s “Optimized Battery Charging” notifying me that the battery is fully charged which happens 30-60 minutes before my alarm goes off.

I’m used to browsing the web on Firefox with ad blocking - works great. My experience of Safari with AdBlock Pro is much less good - many websites block access unless it’s disabled. I also used to have good results with Firefox on Android. Does anyone have better suggestions? Many thanks!

In settings, sounds, system sounds, there is an option for system clicks

I have that turned off, but everything's I tap the keyboard it clicks. How do I turn off the clicking sound?

Apple says sounds &haptics but I can't find that option

Edit: solved : I have a third party keyboard SwiftKey installed. That was what was doing it. Forgot I had that installed. Dealing with this for a year. Lol

iOS App Store seems to have about nine hundred ‘file managers’ all of which are anything but and demand ridiculous subscription costs.

Is there a decent file manager for iOS that actually will do file management things like select multiple file & rename etc that isn’t a scammy subscription/Ad ridden mess?

I didnt see a post for sharing backrounds. Here is mine.

I'm looking for a message backup solution

my iCloud is almost full, most messages

I don't want to remove them completely

so I would like to download all the messages from my phone

and put them in some web application that will allow me to view them

so I'm probably looking for two apps, one that downloads iOS messages to my PC/Mac and some sort of web app (preferably self-hosted) that will display them and allow searching

then i can set auto delete of messages older than one year

can you recommend anything?

open-source pdf reader any recommendations?

for iphone and ipad

need bookmark, annotation is optional

I’ve just switched from multiple email accounts to using the 5 custom domains for iCloud. However, now I’ve lost the per email custom signatures. Is there any way to get this back within the iCloud custom domain setup?

With Goodnotes 6 being released, it now is a subscription instead of a flat payment. I am looking for a replacement app that is not subscription based. I have tried onenote and really did not care for it. Notability is one that i have seen suggested, use it a single payment?

Reading the list of the most popular apps this week is slightly sad. It’s Snapchat, HBO Max and Tinder, basically.

So I am rather more interested in what new apps you are excited about. Have you stumbled upon a really cool (and useful) app lately?

New iOS user here, coming from Android. I am looking for a simple gym log aka workout tracker. My requirements are:

• Add exercises with a custom name.
• Log multiple sets per exercise. Log per set: weight, and number of repetitions
• Create workouts based on your exercises
• Ability to start the aforementioned workout, and track the exercises/weights/reps per workout
• Data stored on device only
• Available in Germany

On android I used GymRoutines https://f-droid.org/packages/com.noahjutz.gymroutines/), which provides exactly the functionalities that I need. On iOS, I simply cannot find an app that either requires an account or is freemium with a very limited free plan.

I would really appreciate some recommendations. Also feel free to roast me for expecting FOSS apps or free apps on iOS.

My iPhone 14 cannot be detected on my iTunes PC (Windows 11). My iTunes is updated and I recently installed it yesterday. No iPhone icon is appearing but it is recognized by my PC as a storage. Tried updated Apple USB Driver on device manager but it keeps telling that my drivers are updated. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Did anyone else notice that if you long-press on the plus button in a conversation it’ll pull up the gallery? Also.. If you double tap the plus button it’ll pull up the fourth menu item. Whichever that is. Not sure if it’s a glitch or not

When I was an Android user I found a fantastic free app call Convertbee and it converted pretty much any unit to any other unit you can imagine. It also did currency.

Since I switched to iOS full time I have not found a great replacement. I have been using Units Plus and went to pay for your full version, however it has not had an update in 2+ years and I worry about it being abandoned (looking at you Bean for Lemmy).

Looking for a replacement app available in the US. Thanks.

ETA: I have no issue paying for the app, but absolutely no subscriptions.

I'll be getting an iPhone pro in a week or two, and have been an android user since forever. Never used any apple products before, this will for now be a secondary work phone for me. I'll also have their Apple One? service.

Looking for app recommendations, tips, tricks any and all suggestions anyone might have for a first time iOS user, to make the transition a little smoother and a little fun.

Thank you all.

Every time when I start using my AirPods, iOS shows me that roll-over. Every single time!

How to disable this behavior?

Please, any suggestions?

I am currently collecting tips for easy entry into mapping. One of the top recommendations is of course StreetComplete, which is available for Android.

iOS users keep asking for something comparable for their OS. For an equally simple start with OSM, there is Every Door, which is also available for iOS. It's a very good app, but it really doesn't have the fun factor of StreetComplete and the UI is likely to scare off iOS users in particular.

There is also MapComplete, which can be used as a web app.

Do you have any other recommendations or ideas for iOS-Users?
