You can 3D Touch it also. It gives you options for how bright you want the light.

He means the button on the actual flashlight icon moves to the on or off position when the light is on or off. Like the icon changes.

I don't use the appstore often enough to pay close attention but that is indeed quite gross.

Actually now that I look at it the ad result was relevant to my search and actually looks pretty cool

Edit: no it was a scam/ripoff app

Eh, maybe? But you were still looking for a particular app by (un-genericized) name, so adding in an ad for a different thing is kind of ugh.

I'm trying to set up a Japanese app store account to download a game and it looks like they took away the option to register for accounts without a valid credit card or iTunes gift card, unless I'm missing something obvious. Is there a nice and handy way to download an app that's only on one regional store without having to put a bit of money into it?

edit: Nevermind! Forgot the trick of trying to download a free app first rather than going straight to sign up.

I had that problem when I was using a Safari ad blocker. Disabling it made links in Facebook open again.

Possibly! I went to a show on Weds and tried to get my ticket QR code scanned off my 6S - even at max brightness, it was too low to scan. Sent the PDF to my SO who has an un-updated iPhone 7 and her screen got much brighter at max, and the code scanned effortlessly. I was wondering what could be the cause... Never had issues before. But I do notice it's darker than it used to be, opening Wallet used to burn my retinas.

Hey guys I'm gonna be in the states for a few months. I didn't realize how much the US roaming rates changed with all the Canadian providers so I'm thinking of getting a pay as you go sim to pop into my 7Plus.

Anyone recommendations of carriers in Cali I should check out for good data rates/ease of use.

iPhone 7 has a much brighter screen than 6s anyway.

It was a massive difference though. I didn't think much of it until buddy posted up there anyway. I chalked it up to a lovely handheld reader.

I REALLY NEED TO SHUT THE FUCK UP FOREVER.
I have my phone set to auto backup to iCloud. Is this backing up my voice memos? I very much want those backed up and want to make sure this is happening. If so, when? After every voice memo? When the phone is plugged in and doing a backup?

Voice memos get backed up when the backup procedure runs, which is when your phone is plugged in, locked, and connected to WiFi.

Or can be done manually in iCloud > Backup whenever you're connected to Wi-Fi.

Insert randomness here.
So I turned on 2 factor authorization for my iCloud account, predictably I had to log in on all my devices again, cool no problems. Now my iMessage handoff don't work, my iPad doesn't always get texts, or if it receives them, no longer lets me send them. I've already signed out of everything and signed back in, multiple times, turned off and back on the hand off from my iPhone, still doesn't seem to work. I can view the messages that I've sent from my phone, but now it doesn't even notify me that I have new messages. Any suggestions? Should I just turn off 2 factor? It was working fine before I did this...

Did you log out of everything before doing this? I find my devices get upset if I change settings like that without signing out before. I know this really doesn't help but just curios

Speaking of force touch wouldn't it be cool if you can give folders a "default" app? That way you could throw your Netflix, HBO, and Hulu app on your home screen in one folder. Press it normally and it opens Netflix. Force touch and it opens up the folder.
