Is there an iOS 14 widget replacement for Eventail? Something changed when the new widgets came in and old style widgets only display when you swipe left from the Home Screen, they’re blank if you do it from notification centre.

Coming over from Android apps two apps/functions on the iPhone are driving me insane, I thought I could get used to the quirks but I can't. 1) The Phone. Specifically phone notifications and spam calls. When I get a notification from the phone app it just reads "Phone" on the left with the icon, and "Notification" on the right. That's it. Was it a missed call? Was it spam? Who called? is it a voicemail? Nothing, just "Notification". And when I tap the notification, it defaults to return call. Why in the ever loving hell would I want to return a phone call when I don't even know it was a call in the first place and I don't know the number/contact? Makes no sense. Worse, I've had phone calls come in that were marked as "Potential Spam" and the default action on tapping those notifications? Return call. Yeah, totally sensible. In addition to that, the phone app has an option for whether you want to silence spam calls. Great, I'd love to do that but as far as I can tell if Apple/the phone thinks a call is spam without your telling it directly it has a separate category for "Potential Spam", which doesn't follow the spam rules. Why is it telling me it thinks it's spam but not actually following the rules for spam calls? Or, just let me set that option, do I want "Potential Spam" to be handled like "Spam"? Yes please, however if such option exists I can't find it. There has to be some way to at least get a better notification and turn off returning calls as the default action, right? 2) The Alarm. I used a single alarm app for... well as long as I can remember on Android. It was great, and thus it formed the idea of what should be baseline on a good alarm app. Not only does the default alarm not even do one of the things I expect completely, I can't find a single alarm app on the store that does one either. Here is what I'd like to have: - Alarm sound can be freely chosen from anything in my music without restriction. Preferable I'd want a single track shuffled daily out of several albums but worse case scenario just being any shuffled music track would be an upgrade over what I can find. - The ability to easily skip the next alarm. So say if I'm off tomorrow, I want to be able to just tell it skip tomorrow and not have to turn off the alarm and turn it back on later or jump through other hoops. - Set days it will be skipped by default. Ideally by importing a standard list, like US Federal Holidays, and customizing them from there. - Alter the time for the next alarm only, then it goes back to the standard setting. I'm sure there has to be an alarm app that can do all that, but between the default Apple alarm and three popular ones, none of them fit the bill and I gave up in disgust. Without me having to dig through every alarm app in the store, does anyone know of one that can do all that?

The first problem sounds like you have the privacy setting which hides the details of notifications on your home screen. Settings -> Notifications -> Show Previews The default alarm is a bit basic, there is a much better alarm if you go through the Health app. Open Health App -> Browse -> Sleep -> Your Schedule. This lets you set a sleep schedule and a wind down time, and also gives you options on the home screen to skip next alarm, and edit next alarm.

On the lock screen if you're in 'wind down' there's a skip button. One sec let me take a screenshot. Wind down mode lock screen:  If you click the time you get the following options: (and they only apply to the next alarm)

What have you done that the pick a song button doesn’t work? Is your music in .ogg or something?

Kerbtree posted:What have you done that the pick a song button doesn’t work? Is your music in .ogg or something? It's only a single song. I want to select a wide range of music and have the alarm sound picked randomly from the list each time the alarm goes off. I don't want the same sound every day and I don't want to have to go into the alarm settings to pick a new one every day.

The Gunslinger posted:Hmm? How do you skip next alarm without going right into the Health app? Is this a widget or something? Pull down from the top right corner to get the Control Center, tap on the alarm clock, tap on Change, and then turn off the alarm. This will only disable the next alarm. If the alarm clock isn't in Control Center then go add it via the Control Center Settings. For the other question about importing a list of holidays and so on, Siri should just do it for you. Whenever a non-working holiday comes up I always get a notification on the lock screen asking if I want to disable the alarm for the coming day since it's a holiday.

Has Google said anything about enabling PiP on iOS in YouTube? Are they going to try and keep this Android exclusive? Maybe they’ll include it as a feature in YouTube Premium like background play?

LuckyCat posted:Has Google said anything about enabling PiP on iOS in YouTube? Are they going to try and keep this Android exclusive? Maybe they’ll include it as a feature in YouTube Premium like background play? It was doable briefly after iOS 14 dropped but then they pushed out an app update that blocked it. Unlikely it will ever return as-is because it completely bypasses the Youtube Premium restrictions.

I think it’s possible now to do on Safari? The actual app doesn’t have this feature and it certainly isn’t a YouTube Premium thing currently.

It's been whackamole since the feature was enabled, every time someone figures out a way to do PIP with an iPhone youtube shuts it down. There's probably some technique out there to do it but that'll take some quality time with google.

Is Waze doing this for anyone else? The google bar is obscuring my vehicle icon and I can't get it to disappear. I've got the google assistant option switched off in settings, not really sure what to do now. It's not disasterous but it's super annoying.   I'm not sure when this started happening but I'm fairly sure I didn't turn any options on as I haven't touched settings in half a year, except to make sure the google stuff was turned off after I noticed.

Nope, all that bar does is expand the google .. thing. No option to move it. I filed a bug report and tweeted at them. We’ll see. I’ll update if I get any feedback.

Migrated my old phone over to the new one. Outlook is notifying me of emails that come into my other inbox, not just the focused inbox like it says it should in the notification settings. Weirdness from the migration probably?

Not exactly that. I had an indicator for 14+unread emails. if a new email came in and i read it the indicator went away until new emails came in. At which case i’d have “15” again. I replaced my outlook with the testflight version i previously used and the issue is resolved.

That particular bug of Outlook is never going away, I’m sure they’ll break it again between the version you have on TestFlight and the public release.

thanks, glad it’s not just me. hopefully they fix it soon. i used to hope that maybe they would add some sort of sorting or filtering options to that list but at this point i’ve been reduced to hoping that the list as it exists now works properly. sad!!

japtor posted:Wild guess but did it start with iOS 14? There’s a new permissions dialog for apps about scanning the network so if you disabled that it would explain it. It’s in the Settings app under Privacy > Local Network (or directly under Settings > nPlayer).

Whats the go to recommendation for a document scanning app that can output an OCR’d PDF and upload it to Google Drive? So far One Lens is the best I’ve tried, and free, but seems to be missing the Google Drive part due to being an MS app. Anything else I should try? I’m not opposed to paying for something, although am less keen on the $9.99/month apps, of which there seem to be a few...

Hey all - brand new iOS user coming from Android. Question about CarPlay - is there a way in either google maps or waze to show the next track that is playing in spotify or I guess it would be called now playing? It's weird I can get Waze turn notifications in Now Playing but not vice versa. For example when a song ends, if i'm in Waze in Android Auto i'll get a little popup notification with the song title/artist that was next up.

What do people here like for cooking/recipe collection apps? I was using Copy Me That on my old phone, but apparently it’s been removed from the App Store so I can’t have it on my new phone. I think the main feature I’d really like it to have is good scraping/importing of recipes when given a link to a recipe webpage.
