Does anyone use the Microsoft apps here? I'm having a problem with excel claiming any new file I open through one drive is corrupted- despite it working fine on my laptop. Was wondering if anyone else using excel/onedrive is having problems?

Is there any way for me to speak into my iPad and have it come out of the speakers attached to my (older) Apple TV?

Is there any app that can take a picture and convert it to a 'sketch' but then lets you erase lines? I would like to take a picture of a street and erase some of the street furniture like poles etc. I could then import it into adobe sketch and draw on it to make the buildings look correct.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Hey guys so I'm looking to put my iPad to good use for work. I need something that can draw/markup images. Ideally something that can draw straight lines or polygons (line by line). Most sketching/markups do this (some not really good at it) but what I'd love is something that lets me shade/highlight the area inside the polygon. I've yet to see something that has that. Adobe Sketch can do all that.

London Goons, can you recommend to me a iOS map app that shows tube/train stations prominently at large zoom outs? Or is there a setting on either google or Apple maps? I , and many people I know, navigate by station way more then road or postcode.

Can anyone recommend a weightlifting tracker app for iPad? I mainly want to enter in exercises, weights and reps to see progress over time. It doesn't need a phone app as I won't use it in the gym.

Virtue posted:Nah, it's not a collaboration thing. It's more like I'll see a common idea between 3+ documents so I'd like to be able to notate that somehow in the file and refer back to all instances of a given topic. Liquidtext allows you to draw links and MarginNote uses a hashtag system I think. Will look into pdf expert though. Thanks. Papers 3 is cross platform I believe, but it works as syncing library system, so you’ll need to upload all your journals to it. It’s very full featured though.

Microsoft Authenticator is actually really nice and backs up to iCloud which makes it easy to sync between an iPad and iPhone. But to sync like that you need a Microsoft account added I think- even a free one.

What phone is the work one? Because if you’re mixing your data anyway you may just want to use the esim functionality on one of the phones.

Jazz Marimba posted:I’m not sure which features you want, but I use Feedly and have no complaints (besides it not being google reader ) I use Feedly but it’s a bit annoying because it needs to refresh before you can read old articles- so it sucks when you’re on a plane or underground train.

I don’t get reception- and would hate to know what the roaming fees are. That being said it’s a far more regular problem on the tube.

On some apps like twitter you can select a picture and ‘Save to folder’. I use it to save things to OneDrive but now that’s not showing as an option - only on the ipad and iCloud. Any ideas why?

hey girl you up posted:You mean the "Save to Files" option with a folder icon? That's handled by Apple's Files app, so I'd launch that app and make sure I can see OneDrive there. If not, I'd try launching the OneDrive app and seeing if I can figure out why it's not showing up. (I don't use OneDrive, so I don't have any advice beyond that; sorry.) Yeah this is the option I meant - and it turns out it’s gone from the files app as well, although it used to be there. No obvious settings to change but a good place to start.

Silly question- but doesn’t the files app let you connect to folders on a network? I’ve been digging into it recently and thought that was an option.

Google photos question. I have been uploading photos to google photos on my laptop as I want an easy way to share albums of my photography online with friends and family. I also just installed the google photos app on my iPad as it would be nice to view/organise them there. However it mixes all my photo roll phone pictures pictured with my ‘actual’ photography- I don’t want all my phone pictures there. Is there a setting to turn that off?

Does anyone use Pocket? It says that when you pay it’s a “Permanent library of everything you’ve saved”. Does that imply things get deleted if you use the free version? Also are there any alternatives I should check out for iOS? Handy if it has a website I can access on Windows as well. Something that works with the Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn apps would be great but I don’t know if that exists.

tuyop posted:I think OneNote will allow you to create a diagram, then put objects like text boxes or photos into it, then turn those objects into hyperlinks. Might need a computer to do some parts of that process, I'm not as familiar with the app. Yeah OneNote with hyperlinks to different pages or collapsing text boxes- drawing is better with the Apple Pencil. If you really want to use pages you might need to look at using comments?
