    What's the best way to download iCloud photos back to my iPhone (I want to get rid of iCloud service)

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 12:05 AM PDT

    I didn't know my photos were getting deleted and saved onto iCloud until recently. I want all of them back on my phone like they were and I want to get rid of iCloud (for a different reason). What's the best way to download my photos back to my phone because there are over 3500 and clicking each one is a tall order?

    iOS Contacts granted access, what is visible?

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 10:10 PM PDT

    When I give an app permission to access Contacts, can we see the details in contacts that are available to the app? According to this doc, the API calls seem to expose FN/LN, DOB, Notes, Address. I'm not sure if other fields such as relationship, company, nickname are also available to an app. Is there a way to see which contacts fields the app is requesting?

    I don't share my contacts with any apps because an app could potentially access private details as I store personal details about the contacts in the notes. It's a pain because it hindered ease of use in some apps. I wish iOS has a toggle for just name and phone number only. (yes I did submit feedback).

    Are there any other apps that are not included in the encrypted backup like Google Authenticator?

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 07:49 AM PDT

    I felt that apps not included in the backup should be shared.

    Please share any apps you know of here.

    P.S. Is there any way to determine which of my apps have settings that will not be backed up?

    Stopping Stocks App opening in multiple windows

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 07:06 AM PDT

    My dad has an iPad with the stocks app on it. Every few days or so the prices stop updating. The only way I can get it to move again is by double tapping the home button and closing all apps. I did notice the stocks app having multiple versions open at once. Is there any way to open one instance of the app to prevent this?

    i've been thinking about buying a iphone, but i'm not sure...

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 01:53 AM PDT

    hello, i've never had/used a iOS phone in my entire life but i do wanna try it, why?.

    a few reasons,

    1-i was talking to a family member of mine who has one, and she reccommended/suggest i get one too.

    2-my current phone a motorola g play is kinda dying on me, what do i mean? the battery drains very quickly, it becomes very slow, and its prone to overheating, idkw, it was working just fine months ago, but now it has problems that is very odd. (btw before i get comments saying "did you change/replace the battery?", yes i did, i spent 80$ on it and it didn't work, i tried factory reseting the phone but it didn't work either. so i don't know what else to do really...)

    3-i've been using android phones, for over a decade at this point so i wanna know personally what it feels like to use/have one.

    4-i just want a phone thats, durable, fast, and will last me a good long while

    5- (and i swear this is the last one i promise) i just wanna know the benefits/draw backs of it before i pay a whole lot of money for it.

    How to turn on Google maps timeline for the IOS

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 05:29 AM PDT

    I found similar/same questions on Reddit but the responses were not helpful to me.

    I want to turn on google timeline on my Iphone.

    Location History is on
    My phone is added as "Devices on this account"
    But my timeline is empty.

    This post (https://www.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/afxv8t/google_maps_timeline_not_working_with_new_iphone/)

    provides the solution as:
    " Go to app settings. Choose Location under Privacy. Set Location to always. Choose Location history. Click devices on this account. Check mark your iphone (this device). "

    However when I go to the application settings for the Google Maps app or for the Google app, Location access: "Always on" is not available. The maximum permission level is "When the app is used".

    How can I give "Always" location access to the Google app?

    I am conducting a study on mobile accessibility. It would be very useful to gather feedback from developers on the accessibility of iOS apps. Can you fill out this survey? Thank you for your cooperation.

    I keep wondering why we can't turn off Shortcut notifications in the notification tab

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 04:25 AM PDT

    I was digging around to find how to disable Shortcut notifications for Automations and I was asking myself why would Apple hide this option in the Screen Time Tab, like, why don't they put it at the right location ?

    Organizing Photos

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 06:14 PM PDT

    I'm wondering if there was a way to organize photos so that photos in albums don't show up in "Library"? I'm finally organizing my photo album after years and it would be nice to properly separate my photos into specific "folders" (albums).

    I'm kind of basing it on emails - some emails get left in the base inbox, but others go into specific folders that I can't view unless I go into a specific folder for.

    Is a setting for something similar? Any tips for how others organize (if it even is possible to organize photos) would appreciated. Thanks a lot!

    Smart notifications

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 03:57 AM PDT

    Recently coming from 10y on Android. I just need verification if I'm doing something wrong or if this system still uses old style fire-and-forget notifications and I need to get used to it.

    In Android, I used my smartwatch to know when to pick up phone or computer to reply back to someone. After that, the notification for the incoming message were cleared and synced across all devices. Matter has been handled, no need for user to see it anymore.

    With this iphone 12 & apple watch 6 setup, I constantly need to dismiss all messages/emails on my watch even if I've been into the app on the phone/computer marking the message read and even responding. Is ios not smarter than this or am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks!

    How do I deactivate Google Maps navigation suggestions?

    Posted: 30 Aug 2021 01:51 AM PDT

    How do I deactivate Google Maps navigation suggestions?

    How do I stop these notifications from appearing?

    I don't want to deactivate all Google Maps notifications like the Google search results suggest.

    Google Maps app > Settings > Notifications - deactivated absolutely all the options.

    Google Maps app > Settings > Navigation - found nothing relevant.

    iOS > Settings > Google Maps - nothing found.

    Thank you very much!

    Question About Resetting Screen Time Passcode

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 05:44 PM PDT

    I set up a screen time passcode a few years back, but I forgot what I put. I tried removing the passcode by pressing "Forgot Passcode?", and I entered the correct Apple ID and password. However, it still locks me out for 60 min when I press "OK". Any ideas on how to fix this?

    [iOS 14.7.1] How do I remove the "Top Hits" suggestions when I start to type in a few letters in the search bar? I've turned off Preload Top Hits and cleared my History and Website data as most guides on the internet suggest, but I'm still getting these same unwanted website suggestions with no clear way to remove them... am I missing something?

    Do you think we’ll ever get an unsend feature in iMessage?

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 09:03 PM PDT

    I heard last year that Apple was working on an unsend feature for iMessage in iOS 14. Obviously we didn't end up getting one. I'd love to have a feature like on Instagram, that allows messages to be retracted. Do we think this will ever happen? It seems like Apple is behind other messaging apps.

    I mostly use iMessage for messaging, and have embarrassed myself a few too many times by texting the wrong person.

    iPhone 12 Instagram Stories with music are Blurry

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 03:23 PM PDT

    Hello everyone. I recently bought an iPhone 12 and am having great time with it but I have an issue about Instagram stories. When I put music on my instagram story, after it's uploaded, it gets blurred and I don't even know why. I think it's related to the optimisation between instagram and iPhone 12 but maybe it's only with my phone. Although I tried to turn the setting "High Quality Uploads" on under the "Data Usage" setting section, it didn't take any effect. Anybody else experiencing the same issue or has any ideas to fix this annoying problem? Thank you in advance...

    Why does my iPhone keep chiming?

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 06:29 PM PDT

    My iPhone keeps making the same sound that it makes when you download something from the app store, and it does it just whenever. Should I be concerned about this? What's wrong and how do I stop it?

    Mail app keeps asking for Outlook passwords

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 01:36 PM PDT

    Okay so I had no problem at all with this until I did a factory reset and put in a different Apple ID and new email addresses. I'm getting asked every day to reapply passwords. The only thing I can put it down to is that I've got 3 outlook email address connected to the Mail app.

    Think I might just start using the outlook app.
