Just checked and the weather condition will say Cloudy if it's cloudy. Maybe do a regex match

Case on the left is for the 14P, one on the right is my 13P’s case after 16 months of daily use, was originally the same color as the 14P’s case. South Beach case is neat lol, wish they made a green leather too.

Sometimes when I'm on my Windows desktop I take a screenshot or something and want to iMessage it to someone. What I usually do is email it to myself then open the email on my iPhone and copy the image from there to a message. This seems ridiculously luddite, is there a better way? I tried using iCloud on Windows but it wasn't the kind of 'instant zap-from-desktop-to-phone' that I want. Can I mount a network drive on the iPhone?

You *can* mount a network drive on your phone: files app -> ellipses in top right corner -> connect to server.

some kinda jackal posted:So I have CarPlay enabled on my 2017 GLA45, and if I look at my phone it shows the "use carplay when locked" slider enabled, but somehow when I plug the phone into my car in a locked state the MB still shows "no carplay device connected" until I unlock the phone. Anyone experience something like this? Going to try to re-pair my phone with the car next time I'm in it, but just felt odd since it seems like that's exactly what the slider should enable. The slider only allows CarPlay to connect if your phone has relatively recently unlocked. If you wake up late, sprint out the door, and connect your phone, you'll need to unlock.

I had the opposite problem, taking pictures of things for work and then Teams-ing them to myself - but if you do Share >Teams, the "You" chat isn't pinned so I had to search my own name. Now I take work photos with Microsoft Lens, which uploads them straight to OneDrive, and I can attach them straight to emails on my work laptop. Bonus: no more pictures of PCBs clogging up my camera roll.

just open the camera app on the phone then point at your desktop screen and do a screen grab on the phone with lock+volume up button, then finally crop+copy and delete you can now paste it in anything you want on the phone

I don't feel great barging in here with a big problem and this might be going way beyond this thread anyways but my elderly father's iPhone died while I was away and not around to babysit him getting a new one and now he has a new iPhone, a dead iPhone, and no data/apps/etc from his old phone on his new phone. I reset his new phone again to see if there were any iCloud backups available but despite paying for cloud storage the only backups on his account were from the new phone - the new and old are different models so easy to tell what came from where. I don't know exactly what is wrong with the old phone - he had some problems getting his phone to charge and I told him and my mom to get it fixed before it got worse and obviously he didn't and - but it also wouldn't charge from a pad charger so maybe the battery is just completely dead or there's some problem getting power from the battery to the rest of the phone. I guess what I'm wondering is if its A Thing for there to be iphone repair people willing to crack open an old phone and get power to it just long enough to create a cloud backup? Or at least see if that's even an option because I guess the battery might have corroded the inside of the old phone or something I don't know I'm not a battery expert. There's potentially a lot of stuff on that old phone, stuff my dad doesn't even remember is on it, and it seems the only other option to get it back would be to have Apple repair it (which is what should have been done in the first place ) for some extremely exorbitant amount just to get a backup. Again sorry for just posting this out of nowhere.

It sure sounds like a dead battery, so it might be worth trying. If it works out, you can get the data you need and sell the phone. It’d be a lot less expensive than most data recovery bills at least. I don’t think you can shortcut it either. See what the fruit stand says.

Maybe do a regex match Turns out it's stupid simple because automations let you trigger stuff on sunrise/sunset. Weather still needs a little scripting but I guess I can live without it, I'm more entertained by light levels.

Put the camera cluster smack in the middle of the back and make it an integrated pop socket.

Kibayasu posted:Is an iPhone 6 worth much? No, but the real question here is, "Is the data on the phone worth $69?" Based on the post, I'd say yes. OP: I would do what someone else mentioned. Take it to an Apple Store. They can at the very least run a diagnostic and tell you what the problem is, and if a new battery would even fix it.

Thanks for all the suggestions. A private Discord is probably the best solution given my setup, but the idea of using the camera and just taking a screen grab of my phone instead of actually taking the photo is kind of clever - something I’ll try as well.

Has anyone else encountered (and fixed?) this problem with the new Photo Shuffle wallpaper modes? I go to Settings > Wallpaper > Add New Wallpaper At the top I click the People bubble. In here are three people, two separate instances of my partner and one of my friend's toddler from four years ago. I have dozens of people correctly tagged in Photos but they don't show up anywhere where I can specify people in this way. I did the workaround of just creating an album out of the photos and manually selecting that, but that only let me grab 50 photos and it'd be nice to have the computer pick through them all instead. Anyone else have this issue?

I've been having a weird problem with my iPhone where I cannot change the notification sound for calendar alerts. It always plays the Apex ringtone even if I set it to something else. I've tried changing the calendar sound in both the Notifications as well as the Sounds & Haptics settings (when I change one, it does change the other), but it's still playing Apex. Has anyone had this problem?
