Question Mark Mound posted:Nice. I heard some reports about family accounts forcing stricter location checks or something but if I can get it without needing to use dummy accounts or anything like that then that’s perfect. Nah I did nothing special, I think I did read though people joining the family plan after subbing might have an issue? My family was in place, I signed into a vpn in Ukraine and subbed using a privacy.com card.

I wish Apple Maps would let me add a note to Guide items. Must-have feature for me - I have hundreds of saved locations on my Google Maps with specific notes for why I saved them.

Question Mark Mound posted:Ah yeah I think it might've been having to sign up for a local virtual card that might've been the awkward bit for some people. Did you have to have a full on subscription before to set up the Family stuff? This is just so I can share it with my partner and friends so we don't have parent/child accounts or anything like that set up. I’ve had my family account for years, and just added the YouTube plan.

One of the killer features (for me) of the native Photos app is the ability to find photos by location- especially because there are events that I remember where they were but I don't always remember the exact date. But sometimes I want to find a photo at a location that I've taken a ton of pics (such as my house) but I end up having to scroll like hell to get to a particular date and I have to start from 13 years ago. Is there a way to do a search by location AND date? It would save me a crapload of time tap-scrolling on my phone.

Does anyone know how to stop WhatsApp/iOS from turning things like the words ‘dinner tonight’ into clickable prompts for creating calendar events? It’s really, really irritating and feels very new (like, within the last day or two).

What are people using for two factor codes lately? Seems like three main categories of options: 1) Dedicated app like Google Authenticator. This doesn’t seem to have any autofill but it’s very easy to generate a code and use it on something other than my phone. Used to be very easy to lose all your codes with your phone but I think this has backup now. 2) Use the support built into 1Password. All my password-like things would be in one place. Pay for this already. 3) Use the support built into iOS. No dedicated app. Not sure how to get the code for use on other computers. Presumably best autofill?

1Password stores my 2fa codes and passkeys. iCloud stores my 1Password 2fa code. Yubikey with advanced data protection turned on for my iCloud. I will say, setting up 2fa/passkeys in 1Password seems more seamless from a desktop browser + extension. Not sure if iOS make it a little more difficult to setup or what.

I started moving my 2FA over to iOS’ built-in thingy but it’s such a hassle to access them for non-Apple devices or when it doesn’t autofill that I started moving everything back to Raivo. Whoever wrote that blog post saying that Apple needs a dedicated password / Keychain app on iOS is dead right, it’s extremely half-baked right now.

1Password rules and the quick access tool alone is worth the cost of admission. If you’re a real pervert the CLI tool is also very good and lets you get really stupid in a hurry. Also it’s great for stuff other than passwords like identities and credit cards and so on. It’s super continent to just pull up one of the kid’s SSNs or our health insurance info and so on; not to mention the centralization and syncing of 2FA codes as well. Naturally this presents an extremely tempting attack surface but they have been on their game so far and do require complex passwords and proper 2FA for account creation and access.

Did they ever make it so the NFC ones worked with iPhones/iOS 1P? I think I have one lying around doing nothing. We need more wearable NFC keys. I had a livestrong type bracelet in college that had a tiny USB stick inside you could use to boot into a Linux distro. They handed them out as one of the intro CS courses so everyone had easy access to a Linux instance and it kicked so much rear end.

I set up NFC security keys on my account and I’m honestly not even sure how to get prompted to use them. If I try to sign in to appleid.apple.com, it wants my email, my password, and the code sent to my phone. There is no security key option. Edit: nevermind, I never actually set it up. I think one of my devices hadn’t been updated to the needed OS version at the time. smackfu fucked around with this message at 16:31 on Feb 23, 2024 |

Security key is only needed for signing into new devices, and yeah, you need two to set it up for your AppleID. Cloudflare had a promo with yubikey a year or so ago and I got a few 5C NFC Yubikeys for $10 each. I don’t think I’d ever dump 1Password for keychain unless Apple decided to create a better standalone app.

Now that I actually set it up it works well. You can sign in on a new computer without needing anything other than email, password, and the key. No phone required.

The NFC Yubis work well but can be pretty dodgy over that and USB if you don't disable things like the keyboard/OTP and stuff on the flagship models. At that point either buy the FIDO2 only "Security Key" or plug it into a real compy and disable the stuff you aren't using.

So turns out I’ve been recording videos at way too high a quality and my iCloud storage is basically full. The tier up after 200GB is the overkill 2TB tier which is a jump from £2.99 to £8.99 a month! Anyway, two questions I guess: 1) is there a good app for viewing my photo library sorted by file size so I can see the biggest offenders to mark for deletion? 2) I could probably just compress most of these videos to a lower bit rate and be fine. There’s apps for doing this, but do any of them retain all the time/location data from the original videos so I don’t lose out on any of that stuff? Bonus points if it adds the compressed version back into any albums the original featured in!

I kind of thought it would be a bad idea to have 2FA codes also in your password manager? If you don’t then there’s additional layer of security I thought?

Red_Fred posted:Yeah this me too but also moving (slowly!) from Google too. Yeah I feel this way too but I’ll keep bitwarden’s token in Authy, that way if someone gets my password, they still need my phone and its password/my face. Then they do have like every account ever but like, I think I’d have bigger problems at that point.

It can also trim your videos, which is probably a better approach than trying to re-encode your collection. If you’re set on that though exporting at a lower resolution and reimporting is an option. Generally though I’d think having shorter and fewer videos will save you more time and space.

Another goon had the strategy that I use for 2FA/Passwords: - All logins and almost every 2FA on 1Password - The 2FA for 1Password on Authy So if 1P is compromised and is assumed that all of my 2FA is there, it kinda isn't.

Generally though I’d think having shorter and fewer videos will save you more time and space. Trimming stuff wouldn’t be ideal since it would again need me to go in one by one to save a few seconds here and there, plus I want the full 59 seconds of my dog trying not to fall asleep, but the video doesn’t need to be 590MB for that. Unfortunately even the inbuilt video re-encoder using Shortcuts strips all the date and location metadata.

Question Mark Mound posted:I don’t see a way in Photos to sort by file size, though. I can go into each video and see what the size it but doing it one at a time would take forever. I don't think what you want exists, at least not within iPadOS/iOS. That said, a Mac would be really helpful here, as it can export video with all the metadata no matter what resolution you export it at. Sorting by file size doesn't seem to be an option anywhere, but you can at least narrow it down to the media type, and then all the times are printed on the thumbnails. I think it's going to take some effort and a computer would be very helpful too, that's just how it is unfortunately.

If you’ve already hit the 200gb threshold, shrinking some videos to drop below it again is only delaying the inevitable. Embrace the 2tb tier. I say that as someone where iCloud and Prime are the only 2 subscriptions I pay for. The photo library just isn’t worth compromising on.
