    Help me find this iPhone app please

    Posted: 20 Nov 2020 06:38 AM PST

    I made an app to improve your mental health through conversation

    Posted: 19 Nov 2020 01:54 PM PST

    Here's the link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/nA3mcuim

    It's an open beta right now so you have to download testflight for it to work, the link should guide you

    If you didn't get a verification email please check your spam, it has been going to spam weirdly

    Also here's a short video of how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXS3HOB_Ja8&feature=youtu.be&ab_channel=ChaiTheApp (the asthethics are not up to date in the video but the way it works is)

    I'd love to get feedback - tweet me @ chaitheapp on twitter or you can just leave a review on the app page.

    If you care about why I made it:

    So basically I graduated from college this summer and moved to a new city for my job. I'm pretty much completely alone in this new city and it's basically impossible to make new friends right now because of the whole pandemic situation. Let's just say my mental health has not been great and I have felt pretty overwhelmed and not really sure how to fix anything.

    A lot of times I felt like I just wanted to talk to someone about something to feel better but it's really hard to reach out to people because it feels like they're still living their lives and don't have time for you. This app is essentially just a way to reach out to anyone and have a random conversation about anything so that you can talk about your problems or anything that makes life feel just a bit more normal.

    Thanks for reading!

    I decided to post this here because people seemed to really like it on r/androidapps

    https://www.reddit.com/r/androidapps/comments/jwpghh/i_made_an_android_app_to_improve_your_mental/

    Edit: Just a reminder - this app is not a replacement for a therapist/professional. It's fine for more casual mental health topics but if you are really depressed and/or suicidal please see a professional :)

    Also I've been working on this app for a while and if anyone wants to see the thread of posts I've been making for the mental health sub you can follow that here: https://www.reddit.com/r/mentalhealth/comments/juuao7/i_made_an_app_to_improve_your_mental_health/ (each post links to another post)

    Craig Federighi says new iOS 14 anti-tracking feature will still launch, regardless of opposition • Nov 20, 2020 • Apple Terminal

    Easiest way to see the green/gray glow on iPhone 12s

    Posted: 19 Nov 2020 04:31 PM PST

    1) Firstly find a completely black image or video, I recommend something on youtube like https://youtu.be/AYtvehF9-Z8

    2) Set your brightness to be around 20%

    3) go into full screen mode and wait for the gesture navigation bar to disappear

    4) adjust your volume with the volume rockers

    Doing this, you'll see a faint gray/green glow surrounding the thin volume slider. I have tried other ways to induce it but it hasn't worked for me.

    Fyi, I am on iOS 14.3 DB2, build version 18C5054c, and I am using a non-pro iPhone 12 if that matters.

    Edit: True Tone is on

    Edit 2: Maybe its clearer in darker environments.

    Will the battery on an iphone 12 mini die like on my first generation iPhone Se?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2020 07:20 AM PST

    I have a very sad experience of using the compact iPhones - the batteries on my iPhones 5s and SE became completely unusable after a year of use, and I even changed the iPhone SE under warranty - but the story repeated itself - for a year and a half, the phone is discharged in an hour and a half of use. Is it possible to conclude that the lifetime of small batteries is much shorter than of bigger ones, and 12 mini will face a similar fate as my previous devices?

    What’s your experience with the Apple MagSafe charger?

    Posted: 19 Nov 2020 05:36 PM PST

    I have the iPhone 12 Pro Max and I just the Apple MagSafe charger today. I also have a Miracase Silicone case. I tried the charger with both the case and without. I mainly charge my phone while sleeping and keep my phone on my bed.

    My issue is that with the case or without the case the charger isn't very magnetic. I also don't see the benefit compared to plugging it via lightening cable.

    Thoughts?

    Finally upgraded from SE 1st gen to 12 mini. Do iPhones just not vibrate as well anymore?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2020 09:24 AM PST

    Finally got the 12 mini after years of hanging on to an SE 1st gen and waiting for Apple to hopefully release smaller iPhones again. Pretty happy with it for the most part. My one major concern is the vibration strength/intensity. I almost always keep my phones on silent and can usually sense or feel the vibration when receiving a call or text. Now with this new phone I can barely feel it at all and am concerned that I'll frequently miss incoming calls and texts.

    Having said that, I do wear an Apple Watch and can easily detect notifications with that. So that's why it might not be a deal breaker. But it's not like I'm always wearing it. So, mostly just wondering if this is typical with newer generation iPhones and if there are any workarounds. I've already tried the whole vibration pattern customization, not too confident that'll help enough though.

    What is your go-to typing method? Slide/swipe or type? What keyboard?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2020 09:21 AM PST

    I've always swiped since my first Android phone back in 2010. I was using Gboard then once Apple added slide I switched. Whatever keyboard I use however I still find myself constantly backspacing. I use an iPhone 10.

    What is your go-to and most efficient typing preference?

    Is Siri this smart

    Posted: 20 Nov 2020 06:44 AM PST

    Having the new mini as a toy to fiddle around with I took it with me when going for a session on the pot like many so people do.

    I often browsed to YouTube via opening Safari and navigating to YouTube.com first thing.

    Right now when I sat down I got a Siri suggestion on the Lock Screen pointing me to YouTube.com...

    Is my phone somehow triangulating my position using my two WiFi access points or maybe more from the neighbors or is my schedule just point on and this is based on time?

    How do you guys keep your phones junk free?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2020 07:58 AM PST

    If you use the same phone for a long period of time, unnecessary media files and other caches and junk must accumulate in the storage, how do you guys keep is clean? I feel as more junk gets stored my phone's performance deteriorates.

    Found iPhone 4

    Posted: 19 Nov 2020 04:21 PM PST

    Good afternoon y'all, I'm a leasing agent at an apartment complex and I found an iPhone 4 in a unit a couple of days after the person moved out. I've tried contacting the person through phone call, email and text, it's been now 2 months and I have not received an answer.

    My question to y'all is what should I do with this iPhone since it's basically useless and I doubt the owner will contact me after 2 months.

    Is there a video camera app that lets you lower the bitrate?

    Posted: 19 Nov 2020 02:38 PM PST

    I'm trying to find an app that will let me lower the bitrate to about 500kbps with sd quality. The idea is that it could record short videos that would be less than 8mb so they could be used on discord.
