    The colors

    The back glass on the gold phone matches well with the Pink Sand iPad smart cover. So it’s all definitely of a slightly pinkish hue. I love it. I’m trying to decide between this and the silver, which has a gorgeous white glass back. That has the overall feel of a white phone with the aluminum...

    Restoring

    I just used that method to setup my new Silver 8+. I coincidentally had the 7+ near to the 8+ when I started it up. I saw the message pop-up on my 7+ and decided to give it a shot. Worked flawlessly, even giving me the option to cutover my AW from my 7+ to the 8+. Reminded me of my Andriod...

    Getting an 8+ -- Why not the X?

    Hhhm, I'm looking at my 7+ and I do see your point. The X still makes me nervous.

    Getting an 8+ -- Why not the X?

    I am very nervous about that full screen on the X and how/if it will survive a drop. I am very careful with my tech, but I feel like I'd be paranoid about that screen. So I am waiting to see how it works out for folks. I will be upgrading to the 8+ because I joined the upgrade program last...

    Do you go through each iOS and app setting?

    I plan to do it with the General Release of iOS 11. Sounds like a really useful exercise.

    Has anyone figured out how to check Apple Pencil battery charge on iOS 11 Public Beta?

    On PB3 the battery level for both the iPad and the Apple Pencil is available on the widget page, as part of the Battery widget.

    Wi-Fi performance is much slower than my iPhone

    I will do that over the next week. I really need to be sure that the Wi-Fi on my iPad is ok. Testing again this morning, all seems fine for now.

    Screen Protector for 10.5"

    Screen Protector for 10.5" I'm using this one. It's great on my iPad. No bubbles, fits perfectly right up to the edges. I've used these ones on my iPhones in the past. Not using anything on my 7+, just didn't want to this time...

    Wi-Fi performance is much slower than my iPhone

    Just tested again, in both the best and worst Wi-Fi locations in my home. I confirmed that both devices are using the same server. However, good news for me, today I am getting similar speed results on both devices. Seeing the iPad hit top speeds is peace of mind. Thank you for the...

    Wi-Fi performance is much slower than my iPhone

    Thank you for the troubleshooting suggestion. My service provider only allows the subscribers to connect to their -2G band. They reserve the 5G band and no longer broadcast that one. So I'm thinking the answer is yes, both are on the same band.

    Wi-Fi performance is much slower than my iPhone

    I had noticed that wi-fi on my 10.5 seemed slower than on my iPhone 7+. So I restarted both devices and my wifi modem and router. Using Oookla Speedtest, the speed on my iPad is just over half the speed on my iPhone 7+. Is anyone else experiencing this? Should I be concerned?

    iPad Pro Franklin Replacement?

    Check out Planner Pro. It may be of interest as it is designed to be like a planner, ie with notes, calendar and tasks all integrated in a single daily, weekly and monthly view. I used it several months ago. It was good and evolving. At the time I was also trying to integrate both iOS and...

    iPhone 7 Plus touch screen completely non responsive requiring a force restart

    Yes. I found that I can just hold down the power button until the power off slider appears. Then cancel the power off action. All is well again and short of the time required to power off/on the device.

    Is the Apple Watch worth it?

    I also got the Series 0 sport about 7 months ago, discounted. I've been enjoying it so much that I just got the stainless steel S0 with leather band at half price. WatchOS 3 is an additional joy. I am not a swimmer and I walk with my phone, so no need for S1 or S2. I enjoy the watch for style...

    Buying a iPhone 7 from Apple

    Hhhmmm. All very interesting. I am re-thinking the whole matter of the SIM- free option, because two things may be important for me. (1) The Apple Upgrade program and (2) Apple Care just in case. However, any re-sale benefit is important because I will likely change to the next new phone...

    DCIM sub-folders on my iPhone 7 or any model iPhone,,, so many sub-folders ??????

    DCIM sub-folders on my iPhone 7 or any model iPhone,,, so many sub-folders ??... Would using iTunes on your PC provide any benefits to the workflow? Via USB, sync iPhone to iTunes, then sync iPad to iTunes. Probably faster than the clouds, but not speedy in any since.
