Does anyone know how to hell to turn the volume of Siri up when she announces messages?? It’s not the ringers and alerts slider that’s for sure. She’s way too quiet for my deaf rear end ears.

I think Siri has its own volume setting that’s only adjustable via the buttons while it’s speaking.

I've seen that in Apple CarPlay. Stuff like turn-by-turn directions come out of a single speaker near the driver whereas everything else is full blast. You can change the volume of that single speaker, but only when it's actively saying something. I have no idea if that's a CarPay thing or a U-Connect.

Well, I'm just about done with a full work day with the AirPods Pro and I'm in love. Sound is good enough, noise cancellation works well enough, and they're comfortable.

I hope companies like Comply make some foam tips for the Airpods Pro. I love mine, but the large tips are slightly too big for my ears, and the mediums are a little too small.

My only complaint with the Pros so far is that the behavior with fast forwarding / rewinding in downcast is really janky. It takes 2-3 seconds for it to actually start playing again where on my old airpods it would just jump 30 forward or back as I tap. It's almost as if it is re-queuing up the audio or something. Very janky.

I figured out why my ringer kept getting turned down: connecting the phone to my car's bluetooth sets the ringer to whatever the main volume level is, and I usually keep it at about 20%. That seems like a bug

I know my car stereo sets the playback volume on the phone to about 65% but the volume on the phone doesnt actually change the stereo volume in the car. maybe a combination of buttons change ringer volume + that = changed ringer volume?

I thought it was the buttons at first but grew suspicious when I had the “change with button” setting for the ringer turned off. It’s definitely the phone or the car inappropriately setting ringer volume when it should be setting only the playback volume while it’s connected.

iOS 13 is definitely the worst release I've experienced on any iphone. Im still on 13.1.2 due to the reports of aggressive memory management in 13.2, but even now Im getting apps that hang and a force quit + relaunch encounters the same problem, the phone getting hot randomly, app store updates not applying, sometimes wifi/4G data not working at all, and I've rebooted my phone more times this week than I would have over the course of the entire previous year.

Question Mark Mound posted:Don't forget Reminders turning to utter dogshit. There's now a 4 second delay between me hitting "New Reminder" and the keyboard coming up. Then about six seconds if I hit the little (i) with the world's smallest hitbox to try to enter in a reminder time (which now needs an extra toggle box to make, since it default to just a reminder date otherwise). I don’t get those delays so I dunno what you’re talking about but you can just set the date and time (and location) in the title:  Tap the buttons on the bottom. I do 💯 agree with you that the (i) has an impossibly tiny hit box though. Once I found out they natural language input works I don’t really have to tap on the (i) anymore.

Maybe I should just delete and recreate all my reminders and hope for the best!

I have this problem as well. I've basically stopped using reminders because it's no longer possible to quickly make a grocery list. Have you transferred to the 'new type' yet? I haven't, that might be causing it. I don't want to switch yet since my mac is still on Mojave and I have no plans to update because Catalina sounds like even more of a clusterfuck than iOS 13.

Chiming in to gripe too! "Hey Siri" STILL doesn't work most of the day, no matter how many times I toggle it off/on-retrain. When it does work, half the time it can't add a reminder (my most often use) telling me "something went wrong with the app." No poo poo, Siri. This lack of "Hey" extends to my apple watch as well. Sometimes they both don't work, sometimes it's just one but not the other. About to do a backup (just in case), then restore my phone as a "new" phone and see if a fresh start will help... because that's the first thing the Genius Bar will require anyhow.

I've been largely OK with iOS 13 but 13.2 is absolutely being aggressive about killing apps off in memory. I'll open an email in Outlook, click a link in said email to open a Safari tab, and if I wait any more than 3 seconds to task switch back to Outlook, it relaunches. Whatever, though -- phones are so drat fast these days that it just amounts to 0.75 seconds of inconvenience.

This seems like a good time to chime in and say that Todoist wipes the floor with Reminders in iOS and whatever reminder functionality is built into Google Calendar / Tasks. It's more than worth the $36 annual fee.

Probably because the code is 20 years old. Someone smarter than me once explained that Microsoft is still using a bluetooth stack written by Toshiba way back in prehistoric times, which is why it's so hilariously unreliable on anything running a Microsoft OS. In my experience it's generally reliable in the Apple world. Only place I have issues is this one intersection I occasionally drive through, there's a large cell tower right there and any time I go by pretty much anything wireless stops working.

To put it simply, the Bluetooth specifications are comically vague. Every manufacturer interprets different things a little differently and then everyone ends up needing to add poo poo to compensate for weird assumptions they made. Also - making disparate poo poo talk to each other sanely is harder than you’d expect when the patch lifecycle for a car’s Bluetooth system is basically “never”. As opposed to your PC or Mac where you can update the drivers.

xzzy posted:Probably because the code is 20 years old. Someone smarter than me once explained that Microsoft is still using a bluetooth stack written by Toshiba way back in prehistoric times, which is why it's so hilariously unreliable on anything running a Microsoft OS. Pretty much every issue I've ever had was able to trace to the receiving device being the culprit. So many headunits in so many cars suck at Bluetooth. The older Microsoft based SYNC system in older Ford vehicles is terrible... It is Windows CE with a equally ancient Bluetooth stack. I had nothing but trouble with that POS. Bluetooth worked 60% of the time, and when it did screwup, the only way to fix it was to pull the fuse to the SYNC module and let it fully reboot (shutting off the car wasn't enough). I eventually added a switch under the dash so I could do it quickly. Ford eventually released a update that actually listed "improved reliability with modern phones" as a change list item. It also added features like track titles and reading texts. And it did indeed make it considerably more reliable.. More like 95% instead of 60%. Still had to use the switch occasionally though. On a side note: For anyone having bluetooth issues with their car's headunit. A few manufactuers do allow the end-user to update the headunit.. Ford, Chrysler, KIA, etc.. Ford for example puts the updates on their MyFord/Owners website. Sometimes they have updates that fix BT related issues.
