    What Apple TV+ show are you most looking forward to?

    Finished Mankind last night. It’s definitely my favorite. I don’t know that I thought this whole thing would fail, but I am definitely surprised by the high quality of the shows. I thought they might get lucky on one, but I’ve watched three now and enjoyed them all. I don’t have that happen...

    What Apple TV+ show are you most looking forward to?

    I think See is one of those shows that not everyone will be able to get into. My wife didn't think she would like it, but she ended up really getting into it. I was actually surprised. We are almost done with For All Mankind and I'm really enjoying that too. Apple has absolutely surprised me...

    What Apple TV+ show are you most looking forward to?

    Doesn't look like this thread gets much attention, but I will chime in anyway :) After being quite skeptical of any of the Apple TV shows, my wife and I started off with The Morning Show. We ended up really enjoying it. I actually enjoy all of the actors, but Reese Witherspoon & Billy...

    Anyone thinking of updating their older iPhone (before Face ID ) to new iPhone this year?

    I'm confused by this post on a few levels... The keynote already happened...

    Refreshing the Find My app

    Does anyone know how to refresh the Find My app without closing it and reopening it? I don't see anyway to refresh and it doesn't seem to do it automatically. I'm using 13.1, but I think it's been the same since I started using the public beta for 13.0

    Wi-Fi extenders

    Same here. I have never been able to find a wifi extender that really did what I needed it to do. I bought the Netgear Orbi about a month ago and now have max speeds in every square inch of my home. Can't recommend it enough. Well worth the money.

    Turning off obnoxious dictation beep

    FYI, my volume was all the way up for that sound. Hence the "obnoxious" description in my question. It was so loud. It's so nice to know that I won't be hearing that anymore. It's the little things sometimes that make me so happy. lol.

    Turning off obnoxious dictation beep

    You are the best!!! Thank you. I didn't even think about trying something like that.

    Turning off obnoxious dictation beep

    I have been meaning to ask this question for a while now. Is there a way to turn off the obnoxious beeping sound that is made when you press the microphone to use voice dictation on the keyboard? I would think that if I have my phone on silent that would do it, but nope. I can't find any...

    Still in love?

    I use them everyday. I will likely pick up the new ones when released and pass these on to my daughter. They still hold a good charge and she loves to borrow them when I'm not using them. Definitely my favorite Apple product in the last few years.

    Anyone holding on to their 8 Plus this year?

    My wife and oldest daughter will be using the 8 Plus for at least another year. They love it and after trying my X and then my Max, have little interest in making a change. I don’t blame them. I love the Max, but the 8 Plus is a great phone and I miss Touch ID myself at times.

    Camera Lens protection

    Your best protection is going to be a good case. I use the UAG Monarch. The camera lens sets pretty far down into the case so outside of something directly having an impact with the lens, I feel protected. Anything you put over that lens is going to degrade your picture quality. Hence the one...

    Why is the color coming off of my iPhone X?

    Re: Why is the color coming off my iPhone X It’s worth a shot to take it to the Apple Store and see what they will do. I completely agree with you. While I do use a case most of the time, if I chose not to, I would expect the coating to hold up longer than one year under normal use. I don’t...

    Slide bottom to change Apps

    I use it all the time. Definitely the easiest way to switch between apps.

    Switching cases!!

    Right now I only have the UAG Monarch, but I just have not had time to add any others. I usually end up with about 5-6 cases over time. I try to have one nice one for work and one rugged one for outdoors activity. After that it’s all over the place. I just like to change things up every once in...
