I'm not familiar with Inbox but if it's a going concern and not just an outdated app that is sticking around because there is someone around to pay the dev fee, eventually they will have to.

Once the new desktop Gmail experience came out with snoozing built in, I switched 100% to Gmail on my desktop and iOS away from Inbox.

I honestly wouldn't have been shocked if Google simply abandoned Inbox. As it is, I don't think the snooze function in Gmail really does the same thing. I like only getting notifications for important emails, and Inbox is really good at figuring out which those are. (Outlook has a similar function, I believe, but I'm still hesitant to give my Google credentials to a third party.)

And for once the U.K. is in on the action with a £54 credit. I’m pretty sure my replacement was in March 2017 so I’ll be looking forward to that.

Thank gently caress. I had mine replaced like a month before they announced the replacement program. When I contacted them to see if I can get a credit on the difference, they told me to get hosed.

Apple’s previous policy was to refund only if you paid for a replacement shortly before they announced the cheap replacement price. It appears they’ve now extended the refund period.

I was eligible for an upgrade so I upgraded to the X tonight. Holy poo poo, this bezel (or lack thereof)  I've only had it for a few hours, so I'm still getting used to all the new gestures and the lack of a home button, but so far navigating it feels snappier than my 7+. I ordered a Spigen case from Amazon (the slim one like I had on my last phone), but I still need to order a wireless charger pad.

The control center Wifi toggle in iOS 11 is supposed to "disconnect nearby wifi until tomorrow". Meaning if, say, I toggle off the Wifi as I leave work, it should still automatically connect to my home Wifi when I get home. However, I've never had any luck with getting this to consistently work. Even if I toggle off Wifi when I am not connected to any access points, it still almost never reconnects to anything without me having to toggle it back on. This is annoying because there is no point to the toggle not being a true on/off switch if this feature doesn't work. Any one else experiencing this? How does it decide what is "nearby"?

LPG Giant posted:If you used Inbox because it most closely matched the unparalleled Mailbox the spiritual successor to that, Spark, is also really good. I just downloaded Spark cause I’m looking for a new email app. One of the things I need is to be able to save an email as a pdf, which for some reason Mail.app doesn’t let you do (in fact Mail.app doesn’t appear to have any share/export feature). I’ve heard lots of great things about Outlook but I’m fairly sure it also doesn’t let me save to pdf, but worse of all it doesn’t let me connect to cloud storage. Like it literally doesn’t even let me connect to Microsoft’s own OneDrive—there’s simply no option for it. I like that Spark has a “save to pdf” and “connect to Dropbox/Files/whatever” buttons. What I don’t like though is that right now I’m logged on to one of my email accounts (exchange) on my laptop and I can see there’s a new unread email, and on my iPad in Outlook it shows a new unread email, but in Spark it tells me everything has been seen. If I can’t rely on an email client to show me emails then that’s kind of a big problem. e: I’m gonna use Spark for another week or so but now I’m manually checking Outlook.app to make sure I didn’t miss any emails which is really inconvenient. I hope it’s just a one time error. The other thing I don’t like about Spark is that it seems to be … free. Free is good but in today’s world where even duplicate picture finder costs a subscription I just don’t understand how Spark is free. What’s the catch you know? They get access to scanning my email content for ad placement? Boris Galerkin fucked around with this message at 07:26 on May 25, 2018 |

You put data through someone's server they are implicitly collecting everything. That's what a server does. If you don't want them to be able to read it, encrypt it or don't send it to them.

If you want timely email notifications your options are the built-in mail client or putting it through someone's server since iOS will only occasionally allow apps to do processing in the background. Additionally, if the app isn't by the same company that holds your email (like Gmail), you're also allowing them keep your username and unencrypted password on their servers to retrieve your mail.

A lot of them do these days if you want push notifications (Airmail, Spark, EdisonMail). Basically they cache your credentials and constantly pull email. When a new one shows up, they use Apple’s push notification API to alert you. It’s a real issue from an InfoSec point of view, and makes BYOB a real loving headache. Read your IT policies, using one of these apps could be grounds for termination since it could fall under “credential sharing”. I know we’re supposed to only use either the default Mail.app or iOS Outlook for our work email.

That might explain why I said that Outlook.app and the webmail website showed I had a new message but Spark said no messages then. Anyway thanks, I’m gonna continue in the iOS app thread.

I also have to constantly go in and re-enable it manually in the control panel. I live a good 20 miles from work as well, so it's not like the two locations are similar at all.

Recently my phone has been acting weird with wireless charging. It’s like it stops charging for a second and then vibrates that it is charging again. Only does it on my charging pads at home, my Anker dock one at work is fine. I changed out the micro usb cord on the home pad (I’ve had two different pads plugged in to the cord) and we will see if that fixes it. I have another Anker one on order since I like that one better anyway. Anybody else experience something like this?

Could be a case issue. Any sort of metallic can fuss with it. One might just have better or more coils so has better “contacts” Assuming you’re using a case...

Eh, people in the thread have had iPhone 8 and X randomly stop wirelessly charging. I mean, I did, and others said "me too". Not like that though. It just failed to recognize the charger, wouldn't charge and a reboot fixed it. Just some weird software bug. I haven't experienced it recently though. But cycling ... that's not the same issue.

So I got a wireless charge pad (an Anker) and connected it to a 2.4A charger, but I charged my X with it for the first time last night and it went ridiculously slow. It's a cool feature, but is there a way to wirelessly charge as fast as I can plugged in with a lightning cable on a 2.4A charger? Should I have gotten a better charge pad or something?
