What's the go to Media Player for iOS? Something where I can lost some .mkv video files that contain either DTS or AC3 audio. I've heard that some media players "update" and remove audio codecs due to expiring licenses.

I really dig Infuse and have never had any trouble with the formats I've picked up. Has a great UI and file management but you definitely wanna make sure it supports what you're looking for.

Really liking Polymail so far. Does anyone know if it'll support other email providers? I have a gmail account but my primary email is on Fastmail.

Going to delete Gboard. It was cool, but I don't use swype and it is too unstable. It crashes maybe 25% of the time I need it to work.

Part of why iPhone was a great ecosystem for devs was a small, closed hardware model. It is still closed, but now devs need to make each app work for each one of a dozen possible HW/iOS combos. Looks like mine is a bad combo for Gboard.

I think that's less GBoard and more Apple having garbage keyboard support.

Yeah, Polymail is shades of Accompli (prior to Accompli being purchased by MS and turned into Outlook). You need to decide If you're cool with a 3rd party having your email credentials and being able to see every single email. Be aware of your company's email policy before you use for work email, however.

I'd started with Swype but it got worse and worse over time to the point where I felt like I was slower than with the regular keyboard. Switched to the Microsoft one and man what a difference. I spend so little time having to back up and start over on a word.

It got released today in the UK app store too, it seems!

And it has emoji search! Something Apple sure as gently caress needs in its official keyboard, since there's FAR too many to look through these days. Kinda hope Apple just steals a ton of these features (swipe input, emoji search, instant send search results) for iOS 10's default keyboard.

One thing I wish they'd give me the option to do in Gboard is to pick my default currency symbol. Living in the UK, using £ (and to a lesser extent, €) is way more common than $.

Apple emoji search would return the wrong emojis or tell you it couldn't find anything.

Only after i read this post did gboard start crashing for me :/.

I really preferred it to Microsoft's keyboard, but I never had the issues I'm now having with gboard. Hopefully a patch or two will get it in line.

What do you folks recommend for a streaming video aggregator? I subscribe to Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime and HBO Now, and I'd like to be able to search for something and be shown which, if any, of those services it's available on. I'd also like to have a unified watchlist where everything saved to my queues on those services is listed in one place and can be automatically sorted by title.

Anyone have a recommendation for a free SSH client? It'd mostly be for tooling around on my Raspberry Pi from the couch, so paying for Prompt/Cathode seems like overkill.

i'm looking for an app that would let me set multiple looping timers. basically set it so i get a notification each time one goes off, so i get a reminder every few hours for one thing, every day for another, etc. ideally it would also let you set "do not disturb" hours. anyone have an idea?

unfortunately, it doesn't seem to let you set reminders on a shorter timer than one day.

Yeah, you could set several reminders separated by the hours you need. So like, first lunch every day at 10am, second lunch daily at 12pm, third lunch daily at 3:45pm.

Password manager chat again!

This is more focused though - I know what to use if it is just for me. However, I'm trying to get this setup for my dad; I can't handle constant "forgot my password to xyz" tech calls. I'm going to be paying for this, so I'm trying to figure out the most efficient option. LastPass is only $1/month, but doesn't 1Password have some sort of family option now, rather than just being a bunch of licenses?

1Password actually has a discount that's a bit cheaper than the default family one for people who sign up with a .edu address. One of your kids may have one and it nets the deal to nearly 50% cheaper than without.

I'm using 1blocker (and only 1blocker), 6s+ and mini4, all on latest iOS. Just loaded the page in both, and no ads. Lots of little one-liners with the word "advertisement" in gray, where I presume ads would actually be, but no ads. Then again, I did reboot both devices yesterday, so maybe try the ol' off-again-on-again?
