    I have to back up my bosses iPhone 4

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 05:18 AM PST

    She has years of client information and photographs, the only computer we have is a Dell computer at the office, She's upgrading to an iPhone 12 but her phone can't do a cloud back up, even the Verizon guy says it's too old, what is the safest way to back up all of her contacts/data/photographs? If I was backing up my iPhone I would go through iTunes but I don't know if her device is too old for that

    Reddit App is side-loading apps and killing my battery

    Reddit App is side-loading apps and killing my battery

    Just want to give a little backstory. A few months back I noticed some severe battery drains happening on my iPhone 11 Pro, and when I looked into screen time there would be a weird website that was constantly running in the background through what appeared to be Safari. Since I don't use Safari at all I was a bit perplexed, and my only solution was to add a screen time limit. Once I did that, a day or two would go by then another site would start doing the same thing. Sites would be benzaga[.]net or nbcnews[.]com. Things I never visited and were completely abnormal for me. Eventually I started deleting any app I could think of and checking the box that would supposedly not allow the app to run in the background. None of this helped whatsoever. I posted in this forum looking for answers, and the closest thing I could get was that it was a "bug" in screen time. But, if it was a bug and only misreporting screen time usage, why the battery drain?

    So, they finally update iOS to 15.2 and we get this wonderful new "App Privacy Report" option. I fire it up and let it run until I notice the issue again, which only took a couple days. After digging in it reveals that Reddit's iOS app has been pulling data in the background nonstop. Not just from one site, but multiple sites. Even with "Background Activity" turned off and force quitting the app it is still running in the background. Digging even deeper, it now looks like it is side-loading apps and letting them run in behind the scenes.

    My only option at this point is to just delete Reddit from my phone. It sucks because it is a somewhat important resource for me, and I actually am a paying member of this community. This is a HUGE issue, and I am really concerned as to how they get around being able to allow this to happen. Has anyone else seen this on their devices? Is there any solution outside of deleting this app?

    Need help organizing photos

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 12:09 PM PST

    I take a lot of pictures at work and I am looking for a way to organize them in the photos app without them cluttering up all my personal photos on my phone.

    On android gallery apps you are able to create a folder and place albums in it and move the pictures in there. But iPhone has them all in the recents cluttering everything, if I make an album it just copies the image but stays in the recents.

    Does anyone have a way to keep everything organized anything will help.

    Different behavior on websites launched from “Add to Home Screen” icon

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 05:17 AM PST

    I like news.google.com but I don't like their app. I went to the website in Safari and selected "Add to Home Screen". That creates an icon that when opened launches news.google.com in a quasi-browser. It has limitations that irritate me. I would like the shortcut icon to open news.google.com in Safari unencumbered by whatever is being done with the icon created by "Add to Home Screen".

    I will list the differences if someone asks. But it can easily be reproduced/tested. Also I can understand tech jargon if you know why it has to be this way.

    In the shortcut browser, you are confined to the url of the shortcut. There is no way to navigate except by links. I am assuming iOS does not allow two Safaris (or any app) running at the same time.

    I just wish I could have the shortcut icon launch Safari or open the url in a new tab if safari is already running.

    [iOS 15.2] Does Notification Summary dismiss notifications when next summary arrives?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 09:35 AM PST

    Pre-15.2, if I didn't interact with a notification from the summary, it would move to Notification center after a while and be there until I interact with it.

    Ever since I updated to 15.2, it seems to me like the whole summary and all notifications in it get dismissed as soon as the next summary arrives.

    Example: I have 4 summaries in a day, and my news app delivers notifications in the summary. I get a news notification in the first summary of the day, but usually I only read those in the evening, so I leave it there to read later. At noon, the next summary arrives with new notifications, and all the notifications from the first summary get removed.

    This is awful because it creates the possibility of me missing notifications entirely if I don't look at my phone in between summaries.

    Is this some kind of bug, or intended behavior?

    How can I get the Mail app to show which account an email is from in the "All Inboxes" view like it does on macOS??

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 11:43 AM PST

    I have finally decided to give the Apple Mail client a try since Outlook just decided to stop loading my messages all together.

    On macOS when I use the "All Inboxes" view it clearly says at the top of each message preview which Inbox that email belongs to. However I cant find a way to get the iOS app to do the same which makes checking my email very irritating on my phone.

    Mouse and trackpad settings?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 10:52 AM PST

    Hi guys, just wanted to check something.

    Did a new update separate the mouse and trackpad settings? Im not sure but i remember having difficulty setting the scroll direction on my bluetooth mouse and the trackpad. I wanted my mouse to be standard and my trackpad to be natural. Somehow theres separate options now. (Macbook m1 air)

    Was this a recent change or it's my imagination that is messing with me and this has existed for sometime already.

    [QUESTION] My iPhone not receiving what the rest of the group is getting?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 10:51 AM PST

    Can anyone explain how in a 4 person group text, the rest of the phones not being an iPhone though. One person sends a video at 8:30AM and every other phone has the video in the chain except for me. I'm very confused by this … the person who sent the video was also on the same strong WI-FI as me at the time. The other phones were distanced relatives. This just makes me nervous I'm missing messages.

    Is there a way to do SSH with Kerberos authentication on iPad?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 10:46 AM PST

    As the title said, is there anyway to do it? I tried to look around but no avail. The best I found is Extensible Single Sign-On Kerberos MDM payload settings for Apple devices, but it's so confused.

    Can't login to any google app on iPhone

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 04:29 AM PST

    Hi, got a new phone today, 13 Pro Max if it matters, but when I go to login to any google apps such as YouTube, Gmail, or even just adding my google account to the mail app through settings it just gets stuck on the first page where it asks you for the email, I put the email in and press next, but then it just gets stuck loading and doesn't even show the password prompt, is there anyway to fix this? I've tried reinstalling the app, restarting, and updating my phone but nothing has worked. It's essentially any app that brings up the accounts.google.com page to log in.

    Is this just google servers down? Or is there a way I can sort this out?

    Thanks in advance

    Update: I have managed to resolve this issue by turning off the 'requestIdleCallback' Safari experimental feature

    Is there a way to close an app or put phone to sleep at a specific time?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 10:23 AM PST

    I've noticed that if I fall asleep while playing a game on my iphone, it is still running when I wake up in the morning. The autolock function doesn't seem to work in this case. Is there a way to close an app or put the phone to sleep at a specific time? Thanks.

    Looking for a Moon Phase app with a dynamic icon

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 09:40 AM PST

    I'm trying to find an app that will display the phase of the moon graphically on the app icon in the same way the iOS Calendar and Clock apps display the current date and time. I don't even know if this is possible to do for non-Apple developers but it would be useful.
