    I’m not ready to let go of the home button. Unpopular opinion?

    Should I pay $60 to get my iPhone 7 charger port repaired or trade it in and pay $280 for a 12?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2022 05:11 PM PST

    So I'm on a very tight budget and trying to decide what would be smarter for my situation, what do you guys think?

    I have an iPhone 7 that works besides it barely charges. Cleaning the port doesn't help and it needs to be replaced, which will cost $60. Eventually I'm sure my battery will need to be replaced as well which will be another $60

    I'm on sprint and since they're switching to 5g T-Mobile they said I can trade in my 7 for a 12 for $280

    What do you guys think I should do? Spend for the repairs for the 7 or spend $280 on the 12

    If replacing the charger port and the battery solved everything and the phone lasted me indefinitely than I would definitely do that, but I don't know how long iPhones typically last

    Thank you

    Do any of you use bold text and why?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 03:40 AM PST

    I don't use it because I think the smaller normal text looks cleaner. It's just something stupid I might notice when other people screenshot stuff. I also don't like how bold text messes with some bold headings.

    iPhone liquid detected and charging

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 07:26 AM PST

    Two hours ago I received the message that there was liquid detected in the lightning connector. I first did wrong and used a hairdryer to dry it…

    If I plug it in now, it's charging and I don't get a liquid detection message but if I then plug it out and in again nothing happens and I have to reset it so that it charges again. I'm not sure whether that means that there's still liquid, I destroyed something with the hairdryer or the software is just not working well? I'd really appreciate any help!

    Apple Music library not working

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 02:26 AM PST

    Does anyone know why my Apple Music library isn't working, I add songs to it and they appear there for minutes and then disappear. All the library does whenever you click it is say "browse Apple Music"

    Screen stays black after I take phone away from my ear on a call.

    Posted: 01 Feb 2022 06:15 PM PST

    Not sure if it's a bug in iOS or an option I can turn on/off

    When I make a phone call and put the phone to my ear the screen goes black. When I take it away to hang up or put it on loud speaker it stays black. I can hit the side lock button or tap the screen and nothing happens. I have left silent voice messages that last anywhere from 10 seconds to a minute because I can't hang up.

    It is getting beyond frustrating now

    Screen time widget bug

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 07:24 AM PST

    I was doing work yesterday when I turned on my phone after a long break and my screen time widget showed that I spent 3 hours on Forbes.com. I looked at all my open apps and none of them were close to that website, including any chrome or safari tabs I had open.

    Today when waking up I noticed that my phone logged 8 hours (still going up at this moment) for a different website. Again, no apps or chrome/safari tabs indicate that website being open.

    Has anyone else experienced this issue/how would I go about fixing it?

    Safe to buy a refurbished Iphone not from Apple?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 06:51 AM PST

    Is it safe to buy one?

    I talked to the store that sells them and they told me that since they replaced the battery and some other parts with non oficial parts, the phone will pop up alerts about the situation.

    The lady assured me that everything will work normally. But will it work normally?

    Anyone here has any experiencie with Refurbished Iphones?

    The store is https://loja.iservices.pt/

    Thanks!

    Phone Stolen. Quick Question.

    Posted: 01 Feb 2022 10:17 PM PST

    Hi. My phone was stolen while I've been living in Colombia. I'm not sure if it was unlocked or not. For apps that require fingerprints (banking, crypto) can the thief create a fingerprint in settings and then gain access, or will those apps only recognize the fingerprint that I created? Dumb question I know. But if that's possible I have a lot of work to do. Thank you!

    Good vendors for used iPhones?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2022 09:32 PM PST

    It happened today. I set my phone down at a store and forgot it. When I got home I checked with Find My Phone on iCloud and I could see that it was somewhere I hadn't been, just up the street from where I was. For some time it was just around the corner from my house so I went over there to investigate, but by the time I got there it was miles away.

    A few hours of tracking and I could see its path, taking it into some rather seedy neighborhoods. I did mark it as 'lost' online, so at least they won't be able to do anything with it. A police report has been filed FWIW, but I figure that it's a goner. I also put a message on screen with a secondary phone number and a message to return it to the store where they picked it up, and they did call me, but hung up before I could answer. I don't know if they're bright enough to realize that there isn't a damn thing they can do with this device since it's locked, and I assume that it'll just get flipped to some other idiot for $20.

    It was nothing fancy, just a well cared for 128GB 6S Plus in a nice leather case. I bought it after the 7 came out, so even when it was new it was old. It has served me well, and I'd been thinking of upgrading, but now isn't the time - I'm broke and unemployed (and needed the phone for interviews!) and really don't have the money to drop on a new phone right now.

    Since I don't buy the latest and greatest, and don't upgrade frequently, I could probably get by just fine with a used phone. Although I like the size of the Plus it really isn't necessary, so even a 7 or 8 would probably be acceptable; if I can swing it I figure that a 2020 SE would be ideal and would last me for years.

    At this point I need to find out where the best deals are for used iPhones. Does anyone here have a preferred vendor or website? I've seen plenty of places online, but who do I trust? With any luck some of you have had good luck with a company and could point me towards somewhere that sells decent older iPhones at a reasonable price.

    Thank you.

    Looking Back at Rumors of iPhone X Design With Rear Touch ID That Never Emerged

    Posted: 31 Jan 2022 10:12 PM PST

    How do I configure Focus mode so that I still get notifications when my screen is unlocked?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 07:47 AM PST

    I want the old form of Do Not Disturb where my phone doesn't vibrate when it is locked, but I can still see notifications. Also, when it's unlocked, I don't mind if it vibrates or not, but I want to see the notification banner on the top. None of the settings seem to do this. If I make it so I can see notifications, it is also accompanied by the vibration regardless of whether the screen is locked.

    Did Apple remove this functionality in their attempt to make this more customizable?

    Recovering data on locked iPhone, can't remember passcode. Is this possible?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 07:31 AM PST

    I know this probably a stupid question but I'm asking for my girlfriend anyway.

    She has an older iPhone, either an SE or 6s - I have no idea how to tell because I'm an Android guy and I can't get into the phone's settings to see.

    Here's the front & back pictures of the phone so y'all can help me figure that out, thanks!


    So, the phone is incredibly old and has lots of old pictures on it. She obviously doesn't remember the passcode and therefore can't access any of this older stuff. There are some really nostalgic things on this phone that she wants to regain access to and I believe iCloud wasn't a thing back then, if it was she didn't upload it to her iCloud. Or maybe she did and we don't know how to check that...idk?

    I looked up a few methods of unlocking the phone but they all restore factory settings to the phone and delete all the data. That's the most important part of this process, she couldn't give two shits about this phone otherwise.

    Can anyone please help? Is this a futile attempt?

    Help! I get hitching framerate and video playback glitches hard on iPhone 12 mini. What do I do?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 07:20 AM PST

    Scrolling Twitter is not smooth, I get frame rate drops but Instagram is the worst. Here is a link to what it looks like: https://youtube.com/shorts/4ZiadbGuDUI?feature=share

    Everything used to be fine and it's only developed recently. I have all the updates too. It seems to only really affect high quality videos where the camera is panning. Videos where the subject is still are mostly fine.

    If anyone knows what this is and what I should do please let me know!

    I bought this brand new last May.

    iPhone 13PM Face ID doesn’t work well

    Posted: 01 Feb 2022 04:29 PM PST

    I'll be looking directly into the front camera and it's like it doesn't register my face. I've reset my Face ID twice but it still seems like it doesn't work that well. I've tried different angles and even removed my screen protector in case it was covering the camera sensors. I never had this issue on my xs. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?

    Edit: am running on the latest iOS.

    Sony WH-1000XM3 bad call quality with an iPhone 12

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 07:09 AM PST

    Hey guys,

    I recently bought Sony WH-1000XM3 and they are great! I have an issue with the call quality with my iPhone 12 - I can hear my voice when I am speaking and there is a strange echo, it's very unpleasant experience. I thought the problem is with the headphones, but I've bluetooth connected them to my Lenovo T470s and I made Skype call and the quality was excellent.

    Is there any settings on the iPhone or is there somebody else experienced this issue with an iPhone and fix it?

    Piece of paper stuck in the gap between screen and casing

    Posted: 01 Feb 2022 09:05 PM PST

    I was trying to clean out some dust using the edge of a piece of paper and the paper ripped and got stuck. I tried getting it out with a needle but I got the surface part off but I can still see the bottom part of the piece stuck. I tried using compressed air to no avail. I tried using the apple sticker and that didn't work either. It won't budge.

    Airplay 2 - iPhone to Sonos with Apple Music

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 02:54 AM PST

    Please help! Is there ANY way to do this - I want to airplay Apple Music to my Sonos One, while I'm doing that, say I open TikTok or YouTube, can I prevent these apps from also playing through the Sonos? Ie, play Apple Music to the Sonos while simultaneously watching a TikTok with that sound playing on my iPhone?

    Spotify can do this - when I connect to the Sonos through Spotify Connect (on the Spotify app) only Spotify goes to the Sonos, with any other audio on the phone playing from the phone itself!

    Sorry if this has been asked before, but I can't find much online 😞

    Thanks for the help people!

    Otterbox Commuter or Defender XT

    Posted: 02 Feb 2022 05:08 AM PST

    I recently purchased the iPhone 13 Pro, so I'm looking to purchase a case before it arrives. Im between the Otterbox Commuter and Defender XT. Can anybody provide recommendations/experiences with them? Note that I'm not concerned with MagSafe, so that's not a deciding factor. Thanks!
