  • Texas boy's 31 cheeseburger order demonstrates why you should secure your iPhone

    Okay, I'm an Apple Specialist and you'd be surprised how many people have no passcode on their phones. Then you have the people who use "codes" like 0000 or 1234 to open their phone.  Even more people keep every password under the sun in an unlocked Note file.  

    The majority of people do keep their phone and passwords secure (as evidenced but the roughly half of customers who cannot remember their Apple ID password!), but there's a large number who do not.  This person is lucky that all that got ordered were a couple dozen hamburgers.  It really could've been a lot worse. 

    People- use a six digit passcode with non-repeating numbers; don't keep your passwords on your phone; and don't use the same password for everything.


    Well, I guess I’m stupid, because I’m not going to follow your advice. I need my passwords on my phone just in case of an emergency. I used to keep them on a sheet of paper but that idea started to not work out very well for me. I also don’t lock the note. If you lock the note, will it unlock with FaceID? I do lock my phone, so maybe I’m not completely stupid.
    Yes, a locked Note is opened using FaceID.

  • Apple Music now available on Google Nest in five additional countries

    Try asking your Nest Mini to play one of your own playlists. It doesn’t work for me. It plays a similar sounding playlist from Apple Music. Not the one I created. I’m in Canada.

    That's a good thing, now let's give users also a CSAM scan free version iOS15 and I will update and also buy the iPhone 13 :)
    It only happens if you have a child account. Sheesh. 
    No. It’s any time you have iCloud Photos turned on.
