    I like it, but I think it's in the wrong place. It needs to be nearer the edge of the phone, unless you have huge hands you end up half covering the display whilst stroking the button.
    Agreed. If the button was moved toward the bottom end of the phone so the left edge started where the current buttons right edge is, that would be perfect placement to me.

  • How to schedule messages in iOS 18 using 'Send Later'

    602warren602warren
    I hope there’s a sever side way to distinguish if a messsge was “sent later” or sent in the moment. I can see possibilities for criminals to use this to their advantage. Perhaps murdering someone at 6pm and leaving their phone behind to send a message at 7pm as a way to show the victim was still alive, creating an alibi for the killer. Or a rapist sending themselves a messsge later saying ‘had a great time tonight, I love when we role play’.

    Hopefully this will resolve the issue with charging in my 2021 VW Golf? It has never worked since the car was new - you get a message saying "Currently unable to charge the mobile device. Please remove all other items from the mobile phone tray." Needless to say there are no other items in the tray.

    In addition when you pick up the phone it has changed to the Wallet and appears to be waiting for a payment to be made.

    Because the car is yet to have its first service I have not asked whether there may be a software upgrade to one of the vast number of different electronic modules in modern cars (particularly the Mk 8 Golf, seemingly). But it may be that iOS 17.2 will finally address this issue?
    RE: Picking up the phone and it being on wallet - my car does that as well. Ive got a 2021 MB and an iPhone 15 Pro - and if i set the phone in the cupholder near the wireless charging pad, it’ll automatically switch to wallet. Even when gently placing it in the cupholder and ensuring i press NO buttons, it switches. My best guess is that it’s something to do with the NFC chip on the phone believing the wireless charging pad is a payment terminal. 
    Do you use a Digital key that is in the wallet? My Wallet app opens sometimes when I place it in the charger, but I do use the digital key sometimes.
    Nope. I don't have any digital keys in my wallet. Just credit cards, store loyalty cards (Chipotle, etc), my Drivers License (I'm in AZ) and upcoming event passes/tickets.

  • Apple Stores start selling new iPhone 14, Apple Watch SE, and more

    602warren602warren
    Anyone elses 14 Pro get INCREDIBLY hot during setup? I just finished the transfer process via iCloud from 13 Pro to 14 Pro and the phone is scorching hot. The 13 would always get warm under heavy usage, but never hot to the touch. My 14 Pro is currently in the freezer to cool it down. Im genuinely surprised I didn't get an 'iPhone is overheating' error message. The back and sides feel like I left them out in the Arizona sun for 30 min.
