What’s the process like to upgrade to the new 1 password app? Cause if it’s more involved than pushing 1 button or something then I really can’t be bothered because it ain’t broke

I tried the beta of the new 1Password and didn’t like it. Is the Apple password app getting any improvements in the new iOS?

The new 1Pass 8 is great and it's fantastic having a unified experience across iOS, MacOS and Windows.

He means the non-subscription based cloud vaults that do not work with 1Pass 8. Like self hosted in Dropbox or whatever.

Anyone know a good simple world map app for practicing my Worldle skills? Google maps gets a little cluttered when I all care about is national border shapes.

So after a couple of years of remote board games with friends over lockdown we’re finally starting to play a few more in person. Anyone got good board game score tracker apps, either per-player on phones or maybe a multi-person interface on iPad? If they can do the complex score tallying for specific popular games that’s extra handy!

Can anyone recommend an alarm app that does like a puzzle or something to shut it off? I keep turning my alarm off and going back to sleep

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:Can anyone recommend an alarm app that does like a puzzle or something to shut it off? I keep turning my alarm off and going back to sleep I’d also be interested in this if you find something. My current solution has been putting my old iPhone 6 in the next room with the alarm on - it seems getting out of bed actually triggers “have to wake up” where alarm next to the bed is “turn it off and wake up late for work, often not remembering I did that”. The only problem is the old phone is getting a bit sad and I think I need a replacement, I have it on airplane mode and not plugged it: by the end of the week it’s about 3 minutes faster than the actual time, if I don’t reboot it during its weekly charge the alarm eventually stops going off - until the screen is turned on and then it’s like “oh poo poo alarm time” regardless if this is ten minutes or ten hours after the alarm time.

Or get a proper alarm clock and leave that elsewhere. Trust me I snooze like the best out there and there’s nothing the phone can do to keep you awake if it’s not getting you out of bed.

It’s subscription now, but when I absolutely have to wake up there’s no competition for being forced to do three maths multiplications and typing two contrived platitudes.

I can’t believe there’s still no way to export a single reminder. I had to create a shortcut to do it. I use the app Remind Me Faster to jot down ideas super fast into the Reminders app, and I usually want to export those to a different writing app once I get home to do something with them.

Sounds like you’d get a lot of mileage out of swapping to Drafts for your capture & export process.

I used it for years but I’ve been trying to reduce how many apps I have poo poo spread across so I’ve been trying to use Reminders for quick input since I like the organizational tools they’ve introduced in the last few years but it’s just a pain in the rear end to get content out.

I just switched from Spotify to Apple Music and, after a brief adjustment period and wrapping my head around the different way it works, I'm really enjoying it. I don't know if it's a placebo effect or not but I swear the upgrade in audio quality is noticeable. However, this puzzles me:  Why would they lump WiFi and 5G together like that? The main reason for having a separate toggle for LTE and Wifi in the first place is so that people can be mindful of their data usage while on mobile, so why wouldn't they group 5G with LTE?

Seems stupid to me as well. Is 5G commonly packaged with unlimited data in the US, maybe? Here in Germany 5G is just a faster way of burning through your monthly traffic limit.

It only does that if you enable “allow more data” in Settings > Cellular The assumption there is “turn it on, this person doesn’t give a poo poo about data usage, yolo”

Books will take your files out of a cloud provider and play them and remember your position and everything. Like just chuck them into a dropbox folder, wait for the upload, open the folder on your phone, share the file to Books.

Also, LTE is slow as hell, so music will take a long time to load. Most of the cellular toggles that are apple made separate LTE and 5G

LTE speed can be as low as 3mbps but most carriers are well over 10mbps. That downloads you an entire mp3 in four seconds or better. Worst case it's 13 seconds.. which still isn't unlivable. Definitely not "slow as hell".

Lots of mobile plans have unlimited speeds but “video streaming capped at 720p” or whatever. Since Fast.com is a product of Netflix then it makes since it would be throttled on some providers. I’ve found https://speed.cloudflare.com to be better than Speedtest anyways.
