    I've been completely turned off by Apple News.

    Since the iOS 15 launch it seems they've completely increased the amount of News+ Ads. I've moved over to Google News.

    Control Center volume changes only media volume

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 09:56 AM PST

    I've been using iOS for sometime now. But, for some reason this just now got to me and at the least seems like a bug.

    The issue ****

    During a call, only the side Volume buttons change the volume of the call. If I use the volume slider in control panel, it changes the volume of the media only, even though mine is playing.

    But, if I'm playing media. Both the control panel slider and side volume buttons change the media volume.

    I swear this is new, but maybe I didn't notice it before. Has this always been the case?

    Seems very weird way to do things imo

    Why doesn’t IOS allow you to set multiple timers at once?

    Posted: 10 Nov 2021 02:42 PM PST

    This is my first iPhone since the iPhone 6 (I've been on Android in the interim). Why is this the case? Am I missing something? It's extremely annoying

    Touch Responsive Issues.

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 06:16 AM PST

    Just got off the phone with a senior technician. Looks like Apple are trying to sweep this issue under the rug. I haven't been told this but I am 99.9% sure this is an iOS 15 issue. I first updated to iOS 15 on release and noticed the touch responsive bug. I tried all that reset all settings, recovery mode, and setup as a new device malarkey to no avail.

    I downgraded back to 14.8 after waiting 5 days to see if the bug was a result of background processes from the new update. Downgrading to 14.8 instantly fixed the issue.

    This issue is extremely hard to replicate since it is intermittent across the whole OS however I found a way to consistently reproduce this issue. Note - this issue isn't consistent. Sometimes trying to replicate the issue using the method in the video does not work and the page responds as it should.

    Here is a video example https://youtu.be/rqLOmHHlJ2Q

    Here is the website I used in the video to reproduce the issue. https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Treasure_Trails/Full_guide/Medium

    I was experiencing green tint issues from when I first bought the phone and had to send the phone to get the screen replaced under the warranty. I was told by a lady in the Apple store that they would fix it without updating so I handed it over. I got my phone back 5 days later and it was completely wiped with iOS 15.1 installed. She lied to me.

    As soon as I got the phone back I instantly noticed the touch responsive bug was back again, not only that but I am stuck on iOS 15.1 with no way of reverting back to 14.8 since it is no longer singed. I spoke to a senior advisor who insisted it can't be an iOS 15 issue even after I told them that reverting back to 14.8 fixed the issue. What now? Are Apple going to ignore the fact this exists and sweep it under the rug like they did with green tint? I spoke to a manager in the Apple store and he claimed that he has never heard of green tint when it was the biggest scandal of the iPhone 12's release. I am worried that this issue will never be fully addressed, just like green tint.

    EDIT - Speaking to another senior advisor as we speak. They claimed the engineers are aware of this issue due to recent reports and they are working on a fix. The information I was given was inconsistent as the advisor I spoke to earlier claimed this can't be an iOS 15 problem.

    Hopefully we will see a fix in the future but I am still not sure as this is the first senior technician of many who seems to be aware of the issue. They claim they have isolated it to a software bug but they aren't sure where it is coming from.

    Is anyone else experiencing heavy battery drain from Siri and Find My at night?

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 12:09 AM PST

    Does anyone know how I can sync my iPhone calendar with my gmail calendar on my PC? gmail to iPhone sync works but not the other way round.

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 08:31 AM PST

    When I update calendar events on my gmail account it automatically updates it on my iPhone calendar however this process does not work in reverse.

    So far calendar events added to my gmail will update on my iPhone calendar and I can get calendar entries on my iPhone calendar to update the gmail calendar app on my phone but that doesn't pull through to my PC i.e. gmail calendar on my work computer. Anyway I can get it to sync with my PC?

    Clear all critical alerts

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 10:35 AM PST

    I love the new critical alert feature. However it looks like you can only clear these one by one , and using clear all in the Notification Center does not remove them . Anyone know how to clear all critical alerts at once? I got about 500 pager duty pages in one go.

    Anyone having Phone Call issues on iOS 15.1?

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 05:58 AM PST

    Sometimes when I call someone, they say they can't hear me and and that I keep cutting, which is resolved temporarily by restating the phone. Always have 4 bars as well. Is this a known bug? Any solution?

    Is Hyperweb a safe Safari extension?

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 04:43 AM PST

    I want a free extension that gives a basic dark mode on normal websites for my iPhone and I came across Hyperweb. It seems a bit obscure with little to no reviews on the App Store. Is it safe?

    Does IOS have any functionality for tracking app usage?

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 08:22 AM PST

    I toggled on the weekly report to see how much battery time I've used on each app as well as power time for a week. What I'd like to know is if there is a way to retroactively look as previous data.

    Example: I can see how long I've had the Weather open for the last week but can't go further back. Is it possible to view all time historical power data for each app?

    If not natively, is there an app I can download to track that? I assume it must be stored somewhere in the IOS since the phone should be able to store its power time. This would be really helpful for seeing how much time I've devoted into each area, which parts I need to improve on and which apps I need to start managing my time with better.

    If I see for example that I've spent 100 hours on Facebook over the last month and only 40 hours on Outlook then that's something I'd like to change. I know I can do this to an extent with weekly lookthroughs but I'd really prefer a larger data set. Please let me know if anyone here knows of a way to do this, I've been toggling various settings and such but haven't found anything for this.

    Can’t toggle off location status bar icon

    Posted: 10 Nov 2021 11:41 PM PST

    The toggle under location services > system services does nothing. On or off the icon persists. Is this bugged? I wanted to turn it off since location is basically constantly requested. The icon is nearly constantly filled it, sometimes hollow, even though only weather and clock and some system services can have constant access.

    Not able to iMessage self through Apple ID

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 07:04 AM PST

    Hello. I had a quick question about iMessage.

    I was messing around with the message settings on my phone and saw that I can receive messages at and reply to them from my phone number but also my Apple ID email.

    I wanted to test this so I started a new conversation from my phone and in the address typed in my email. The message said it was delivered but it never showed up on my phone.

    I'm fairly certain it was going to me since when I started typing I could see the chat bubbles show up.

    I am able to send iMessages to myself when using my phone number and receive them just fine.

    Is this just an Apple ID thing?

    Caching iOS apps for faster downloads

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 06:59 AM PST

    I am curious if it is possible to create a cache for iOS apps on a windows, mac or linux pc. I am in an enterprise environment that has MDM for it's ipads. When a user signs into an ipad, all of their apps are downloaded to that ipad. A cache would be great because most users have the same apps, some of which are very large and we could reduce our reliance on the ISP and hopefully see faster downloads.

    Thanks for the help!

    Media control in the notification area and Lock Screen.

    Posted: 11 Nov 2021 06:27 AM PST

    First iPhone in years, found the media control in the notification area and the lock screen really huge and have no way to dismiss them when the media is not playing. The only way I found is to close the app that plays the media. Is there any trick or a setting somewhere to dismiss them easily? TIA

    iPhone 6s Plus battery drainage IOS 15.1

    Posted: 10 Nov 2021 07:47 PM PST

    Hey guys, I've recently upgraded to IOS 15 a few weeks ago.And now my battery life is horrendous.

    It gets laggy and slow at 70% and dies around the 60% mark. It takes only 20 minutes of heavy usage to go from 100% to 80%. And then it takes hours to charge back up to 100%. It is truly an enigma and extremely annoying. I pretty much have to keep my phone plugged in all day at work. worst is that it can die overnight, even if left at 100%, I miss my alarm the next morning because my phone has drained all night! No apps open and all functions off, even battery saver turned on, still dead in the morning! (this is why I just leave it plugged o charge)

    I love my iPhone 6s+ and still want to continue using it, It never did this before when I was on IOS 13
