My straight outta my rear end guess is it's got to do with photos in your message history.

Got my iPhone SE earlier today! Really like it, though the keyboard is gonna take some getting used to. Unfortunately the sim tray bumps out of the side just a little bit. I checked my wife's old 5S and it's perfectly flush; when I put the tray from the 5S in the SE it also sits flush with the phone. If I go to the Apple Store and ask about a replacement sim tray will I get laughed out of the store?

I thought I had that prune after 30 days on and I guess I never actually did it. Turned it on and reduced the backup size by 2gb. Because why show everything included in the backup?

The Dave posted:The iCloud backup UI is the dumbest poo poo. iCloud sucks in general. Just disable the photos from your backup and it will probably be under 5gb. Let it do it's thing. iCloud shits me because every time someone plugs in their iPhone to charge it will start backing up to iCloud and raping my 1mbit upload so Netflix/browsing/etc is unusable.

I belong to iTunes Match, but not iTunes Music - I used to have an option to see all my available music, and then only download what I wanted. But now it seems like I can either only see what's already downloaded to the phone... or I can "enable iCloud music library" and download every loving thing in my entire Match library. No in between. What's up?

In settings - music, if you turn on iCloud Music Library, you'll see (but not automatically download) your entire Match library. A least that's how it works for me, also a Match subscriber.

You're right, and I'm a dummy. When I first did it I clicked into an artist and then the "..." menu, and saw "delete from My Music" - that, combined with a sort of flashing/jittering like it was trying to download a lot at once (it was loading my library) made me think it was trying to pull in all of it.

Just picked up a 6S, this thing is pretty cool. I've never had a flagship before, coming from a refurbished 5s. Anything cool I should know that isn't obvious? Is this 3D touch thing as useless as it seems?

if you're wondering if 3d touch is useful just imagine how i feel every time i use force touch on my mbp.... sometimes define a word on my mbp, most of the time fail at even that

It's really nice to be using the thing every site's mobile design is laid out for, I'll say that. Keyboard is terrible but I'll adapt

Can anyone recommend an equivalent of Status Board for the iPhone instead of an iPad? Thinking of getting a docking station, would be nice to have something like that.

The fact that I even had to think about it before and spend any time on it is ridiculous. $1 a month is completely unnoticed and the joy of not even loving thinking about iCloud backups is really nice. Backed up camera roll finally! Woo!

So you put a layer of glass on your layer of glass?

# ? Apr 20, 2016 16:45 |

A layer of glass that is cheaper than the first layer of glass and protects your investment! And also makes the device less responsive and enjoyable to use. Also it's ugly.

"I've never scratched my phone" - the shut-ins from this thread. Meanwhile, those of us that go hiking or to beaches recognize that that errant piece of sand stuck on your thumb will scratch the screen, resulting in lower sale prices around upgrade time. Since I've never paid more than $3 for a tempered glass protector, I feel safe and secure in my decision. If you never leave the house, I'm sure you feel safe and secure in your decision too.

I've hiked with my phone, kayaked with it, worked some intense and varied jobs with it, taken it to the beach and ridden halfway across on the country on a motorcycle with it. Never got a scratch. Eat poo poo bobfather.

What is the resale difference in a very slightly barely noticeably scratched 1yr+ old iPhone and one that had a screen protector? $20? Good call dudes.

So you pay for apple care, then you pay an extra 99 for a new phone and you think you get all that money back vs selling a slightly scratched iPhone?
