IuniusBrutus posted:Android to iPhone specific questions. I've been screwed for the last time by Android instability and am done with it. 1) My 16GB iPhone shows 11.9GB available for use by apps when I add up Used+Available in the usage. You can upgrade to the 64 or 128 versions you just have to pay $100 or $200 up front. 2) I use the built in apps for Google Mail, Contacts and Calendar 3) I have been using Apple Maps and don't find it too bad. 4) I have no stability issues and prior to getting my iPhone 6 on the T-Mobile promotion I never had to wipe it clean. 5) I get a solid day of use, don't have specific times as I just don't worry about the battery life. 6) If you want music on your phone you have to use iTunes 7) Don't know of one, I just suck it up and know I don't have SMS on my windows PC

WithoutTheFezOn posted:If your goal is just to make syncing (parts of) your library as close to painless as possible, iTunes Match is great. Especially if you have multiple iTunes/iOS using devices. I haven't actually "synched" anything for a couple of years, my library is just "there" on all my (and my wife's, since we share the same Store ID) devices. That is the part that I like the most about iTunes Match. The syncing between computers and devices is really nice that as I add new music to the library I don't have to do anything on other computers, iPhones, or iPads to see the new music.

withak posted:Actually I'll probably just keep my 6S. I am in kind of the same situation. The 6s is plenty fast enough and I would rather have Touch ID than face ID or whatever they'll call it. The OLED screen seems nice but it seems like they had to make too many cuts to it.

So I got the iPhone X today and it’s my first phone that supports HEIC. How much of a pain is it to use that as opposed to jpg? I only got the 64gb as I never used up half of my 6s with 64gb but having extra space using HEIC would be nice

64bit_Dophins posted:I did ask about the Apple financing and it honestly seems pretty good. I'm considering getting on the apple update plan bc this iPhone 8 has me hooked. My understanding is it only requires you have service with the provider. It shouldn’t affect your plan at all. It didn’t for mine and I have a grandfathered plan I can’t touch online.

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:Few pages back but I wanna say it’ll still charge the primary family account holder’s credit card. A lot of people miss this. Definitely there so people just don’t go add all their acquaintances. I could be wrong. The other crappy part is it won't use iTunes Credit on the primary account for any of the family accounts, it'll charge the credit card.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:No they reserve that for battery issues. Every loving time I've taken a phone in due to a poo poo battery dying at 45% or going down 10% a minute, it's always "welp, diagnostics passed, sorry." I had a bluetooth issue where it wouldn't connect to any bluetooth devices but I couldn't replicate it. After going in 3 times they just replaced the whole phone and guess what, the issue went away.

Proteus Jones posted:I still show my old AirPort Extreme even though it hasn't been online in over a year (it just shows as "offline"). Maybe that's part of the secret sauce? Having it originally is what "unlocks" the app functionality? It seems like an odd requirement since the scan uses the phone. Must be the secret sauce. Shame I don't have my old one anymore.

Snowy posted:I made the switch to the upgrade program last year and yes that was an option when I did it When I switched to the upgrade program I was going to but realized it would be like a down payment on a lease. Sure it makes the monthly payments a little cheaper but you won’t get the money back ever. We traded our phones into apple for store credit and got new apple watches.

Snowy posted:I just did this for the first time through the apple store app and it seemed to go through fine. I was a little surprised to have to do the loan forms again, and there was a notification of Verizon looking at my credit, is that stuff you do every time you upgrade? It made me a little worried I’d end up messing with my phone plan or something. I think this is the 3rd time I’ve done it and it’s never hit my credit after the first hard pull. Not saying others might not be that way but you have to sign new loan paperwork as technically Apple is terminating your old loan and signing you up for a new one.

Some of us like spending money. It’s a weird one for me as apple did the iPhone Upgrade Program and now I don’t even think about it. I look at it like the old carrier subsidy where you were always paying for the phone.
