I had a meeting with a sales guy today and he wouldn’t stop mentioning synergy 😂

How do you use it with that background? Too many colors.

I have learnt a lot of tricks just through comments here and on Reddit. You can change what the ‘Triple Click The Side Button’ does in a setting under Accessibility. I use it to toggle VoiceControl to control my phone while driving. There is a manual for every iOS version. Maybe all the tips and tricks are covered there.

Nope. The old one will just work on WiFi or hotspot if I’m away from home. But in my experience, I only needed my old phone at home to look up some message or a photo which doesn’t need WiFi. After a couple of weeks I just turned my old phone off.

Make sure WhatsApp backup is turned on. That’s one thing I always make sure is done as you’ll not be able to login to your old phone to get the chats

Backup to a laptop if you need to.

It will be stored on iCloud. You need to make sure iCloud setting is turned on.

I do this whenever I get a new iPhone. Backup the old phones and include all the apps to be safe. I set up my new phone as new and start using it and download apps when I need it. So I go from 150+ apps to only the default ones so it eliminates any app I barely used on my old phone. I carry my old phone with me for a few days just in case I need to access some app immediately but if you have unlimited data you wouldn’t need to do that.

You can have some apps and settings on iCloud which will get carried over - like Health, Fitness, Passwords etc.

They are some settings which don’t get carried over, like the mail app defaults to Archive on swipe and I need to change to Trash. You’ll anyway figure it out if you are used to one setting. If it’s not usable you can always install the backup. So far I don’t mind starting fresh.

You can add stuff to Grocery list in Reminders using Siri. Not sure if that works with Notes or if you use Siri for that purpose. I just add stuff when I’m cooking and see something run out.

That is so annoying. My challenge for this month is to walk 3 miles and was able to just swipe up to check the steps/distance. Now I need to swipe/scroll 4 times. I hate the Watch OS update.

Lol. We already started iPhone 16 predictions.

Get the battery replaced, because you probably need one, and do a Backup and Restore. Should fix all the issues. I had the X for 5 years and it works perfectly fine. I just upgraded because I wanted a new phone. If you don’t reinstall all the apps from backup it’s even better as you end up installing so many apps and barely use them.

It’s also in the iPhone Analytics in settings app. You can Google it and there is a Siri Shortcut to easily find the cycle count.

Apple bought it in 2017 and seems to have killed the product after using it to improve their sleep tracking in the Health app.

Thanks for the warning. I learnt many years ago to not fund any project on Kickstarter. I haven’t been burned but I hate the wait after I have already paid and it definitely sucks if the product is not what you expected. So now, I just follow them and if they successfully launch I’ll buy it. They usually put in on sale at the same price for Backers so I don’t fall for the discounted price anymore.

Why do you need you to disable the sim? I just started using 2 sims when I’m on roaming and my FaceTime/iMessage still has my Sim1 number but all cellular data goes through Sim2. Sim1 is still on and I only get cellular calls.

Please don’t post with clickbait titles.

Thank you!

Have you listed the web app for AliExpress? I can’t make the website name from the web app name.
