OldSenileGuy posted:I don't think i'm totally understanding your second complaint, since it's totally possible and straightforward to add multiple cards to your wallet (a business card and a personal one) and pick which one you want to use for each payment. When I got babby's first iphone last year, there was no option to select payment method for a subscription. It charges whatever is set as the default payment method in apple pay. It even says now in my Apple ID settings: "If your default payment method can't be charged for a purchase, including subscriptions, you authorize APple to attempt to charge your other payment methods in order from top to bottom"

I think that's correct. For Apple Pay purchases (like you're at a store and paying for something) you can pick whatever cards you have added. For subs, like Apple One, it does ding the default card first.

The phone was seemingly drawing full power but not banking any of it and just converting it straight to heat for hours. The new iOS finally added hand warmer mode.

My phone woke up this morning with the screen completely dead. It was somehow still providing haptic feedback. I basically pressed the side buttons to trigger the Turn Off swipe and swiped at where the bar usually would be. Then turned the phone back on. I didn’t think it’d work — both the turnoff and the turnon — but it did. Screen came back on. What a nasty problem to run into though. Really freaks you.

This is a new one to me in Apple Maps… it’s avoiding a flood warning in the suggested route. A bit silly since the flooding is localized to one river but the route is all interstates… but maybe more useful elsewhere.

I'm not sure how wireless car play is setup to tell you for sure. I'm going to check that tomorrow- it should be auto-updated OTA whenever GM pushes one out. And yes wirelessly connected. I'll try both.

I've been using AMaps more and more compared to Gmaps and Waze, though I still prefer Waze sometimes. It's real whiz bang, it's pretty, and it does tie me into the grips of Tim's ecosystem well.

I forget if I shared this here, but a really good reminder to really guard your phone / tech. https://www.wsj.com/video/series/jo...=djemTechThings Having helped customers reset passwords all the time for years, i get immediately how he (them) were doing it. It’s just extremely impressive how fast. I donno what the balance should be on security vs ease of resetting passwords, there are so many people who just can’t handle tech, some because they’re ignorant, some because of mental / physical issues (like the earlier discussion on safe guarding grandparents phones, etc).

Lately, I don’t know when it started exactly, Safari has been acting up. I go to the address bar to Google something, the progress bar moves slightly, then stops midway and nothing else happens. I won’t get Safari to actually perform the search unless I 1) open a new tab to perform the same search, or 2) lock the phone, unlock it again, and then refresh the old tab. I’m using a 12 Mini on iOS 17.2.1 and I have rebooted the phone. What gives?

I don't feel like testing it out myself, but is it really true that if you change the Face stored in FaceID on your phone, any apps that use FaceID will immediately accept the new Face without any kind of re-authentication? Because THAT is nuts. I would think it would be super simple to make it so that a change in FaceID triggers any apps that use FaceID for login to require a password on their next login.

Apple is working on making this particular theft model harder to do. https://www.theverge.com/2023/12/12/23998665/apple-stolen-device-protection-face-touch-id-icloud-account-vulnerability-ios-17-3-beta Because so much of our lives is tied to our phones it’s a weird situation where “let me show you this funny picture” requires the same level of care as “here is access to drain all my accounts.”

Yeah, it really is that easy. The reminder people forget about is the master / higher weighted password is your PIN code. So to change it, all you need is the pin , you change it, pick a new one, re map Face ID, and bam you’re done. It’s also very easy to reset your Apple passcode like he says, because you know the pin, the phone assumes it’s the secure user using it, so when you go to iCloud and change password, just using the pin will let you reset it under change password. I did it all the time in terms of helping the vast number of customers who never remember their passwords. It’s usually very easy now a days.

The old card is dead once you activate the new one, even if it hasn't expired yet. The infrastructure exists for your card to be updated in Apple Pay automatically, but it's bank/card issuer dependent.

Vegetable posted:PIN has always been the weakest link in the chain. It hugely undermines the security benefits of biometric authentication to be able to use PIN as a backup. The real backup should be an alternative biometric authentication (bring back TouchID!) or some hugely cumbersome process, like visiting an Apple store or using a connected MacBook that has similar security safeguards. Great point. Backup to a connected computer of any sort unfortunately sounds nice, but wouldn’t be great since a lot of people just do not have a computer anymore (choice or affordability).

TouchID would solve maybe every problem that FaceID has. Use it without looking directly at your camera. Use it even if the camera is broken. Use it when you have a mask and shades on. But I think Apple would rather live with the security costs of PIN rather than the design and economic tradeoffs of new fancy hardware.

I have to use TouchID a few times a week with other various devices and I hate it so much. It’s just hot garbage, slow, unresponsive and just a flaming turd. Never buying another TouchID device ever again.

Regarding all of the above: iOS 17.3 adds an increased security setting that makes it much more difficult to change things. Essentially you have to authenticate, then wait an hour and do it again before it will let you change any account passwords or anything. It also adds biometric auth to more things.

Changing your pin or FaceID should require your Apple password. Nobody is changing either enough that it would be an unnecessary hassle.
