Mine updated fine.

Also I got an AT&T carrier update to 24.1 (no idea what it was before).

Ugh, I really, really did not want to switch to one of the bigger 6-sized phones from my 5, but I finally caved a few months ago and got a 6s. Now I'm not sure if I should switch over to a SE or just stick with swapping my sim into my old 5 when I really want to use a smaller phone.

I don't understand why I can't harass people online. Seriously, somebody please explain why I shouldn't be allowed to stalk others on social media!
Can apps turn off the f.lux feature through an API or anything? I need my Snapchat snaps and Instagram pics to look amazing at 1am when I run them through a lovely camera filters to show my friends how much of a party animal I am.

(No but seriously serious question though, can photo/imaging apps turn off the f.lux filter when I'm doing photo/image editing?)

You can turn it off in the settings. Or the control center. Not sure there's an API for it, though.

Says there is 2gb quite confidently but I'm not sure where they're able to confirm that from.

The A9 SoC comes with 2GB of RAM on-package; it'd be more work for them to drop down to 1GB (and have to produce a new package) than to just keep the current SoC.

If the 6s is in good condition you may be able to sell it and the 5 on ebay, buy a new SE retail, and pocket a couple hundred. If you don't have interest in selling it seems like a waste, though.

I'm curious what the gently caress the point of a public beta is when I reported this like three times on three different releases only to have it ship in the final version:

Er, public beta is very much intended for daily use for regular users. That's why it's a public beta not a developer beta. They want feedback. Public betas are often left out of the first couple of (unstable) beta builds, and in my experience I haven't seen showstoppers from running a public beta. Early developer betas? Yeah those can be a disaster.

After updating my iOS, a carrier update popped up. So I installed that... and now my LTE does not work. It still shows up at the top of the screen, but I'm getting no reception. It's Sprint 24.1. Anyone know what's up?

I find that if I read my phone in bed it's much easier on my, same with flux on my PC in the evenings. I sleep quite well though anyway.

They not only ripped them off, they eliminated flux's ability to distribute the app.

I mean yeah flux was "breaking the rules" with their scheme but it was still an incredibly scummy thing for Apple to do.

No 3D Touch, which I've come to really like if only for the ability to turn the keyboard into a trackpad.

I'm really considering dumping my 6S, though.

Once you've tried that big six inch S+, its hard to go back to a S, but there are advantages to each!

OK, gonna update now... fingers crossed, backups are ready...

My only complaint with the 6 is that they redid the keyboard so it's basically the same size, just with more poo poo to accidentally tap. The horizontal keyboard is particularly bad.

I still have a couple ancient apps from the pre-6 days and they get the old keyboard, it's so nice to use because the keys are bigger.

We've been in a position where we had to upgrade a few users from 5C to 5S which has felt kind of mean (we still do contracts, and the company won't shell out for the 6) so this will at least be a real step up.

They literally did this to us at work a month ago. Replaced all of our AT&T 5Cs with Verizon 5Ses. A two year old phone... for a two year old phone.

Cause it'll still have the 6S internals when the iPhone 7 comes out :v:

I'd like to go back down to a smaller phone...but am really interested in the long rumored dual camera stuff. 3D Touch would be nice too but not the deal breaker alone for me.

Because you just bought a 6s in December and ohgodIreallyshouldn'tsellitandbuythesuperioriPhone. 3D Touch is pretty much a worthless gimmick, and the smaller form factor is waaaaaaaaay more comfortable for using one-handed on the bus/at the grocery store/etc.

I don't think I can talk myself into selling my 6s and spending the extra cash to upgrade to a SE, but if the 7 gets a similar treatment I'll bail on the hugephone in a heartbeat. Large phones suck.

A recent Googoo Maps update added 3D Touch shortcuts, including directions to home. A little more involved than hands free-ing it, but not so bad.
