Minor derail, but have you listened to it? It's no masterpiece but it's very good, IMO. (Also not having Achtung Baby on your phone is fightin words, sir)

sleepness posted:Is there a consensus on the better general swiping keyboard? I've been excited for this for a long time but now I feel over-inundated with options! I'm using SwiftKey and can attest to it's awesomeness. In fact this post was made using it, hopefully there are minor errors.

Any word on whether third-party keyboards will soon support voice dictation? I know SwiftKey doesn't. That's a big downside for me, as I really wanted to exclusively use SwiftKey. I have gotten very accustomed to the swiping.

Wow. That was the easiest time I've ever had doing this. Silver 6s+ 64GB ordered (upgrading from 5s 16GB)

So I just ordered a 6s+ and I'm looking around now for either a case with a "kickstand" or a dock/holder that will allow me to view in landscape mode, since I plan on doing some media watching (netflix and junk) while it's on a desk/table Any recommendations?

Question Mark Mound posted:Nah, just personal preference. I used to have loads of folders, but then felt like swiping through a bunch of home screens is much the same as tapping through a bunch of folders, so I might as well have easier visibility of the apps. I have everything in one folder called "apps" and use spotlight search/recent apps to get to everything

Thanks for the heads up on the cases. Picked up a light brown one for the Plus version for $6 because why the hell not it's only $6. I'll hopefully keep my most used cards (bank/metro/rail pass) in there and eschew having to open my wallet 90% of the time

Feenix posted:Just to clarify if folks have trouble with it... The above was not working for me... What does is press, then press harder to make your keyboard a cursor pad. Then *lighten* your press but do not lift your finger off the screen. Then press harder again to highlight. Thanks for this. I couldn't get it working before. Holy poo poo THIS is how you edit text on a phone. It's incredibly natural.

So as I said upthread, I planned on getting rid of my folders when more apps started using 3D Touch. Facebook just started, so I made the switch. So far I hate having my screen cluttered with apps but it has made getting my most used apps slightly easier so I'll give it a month or so. Also, coming from a 5, having Apple Pay is the most amazing thing ever, especially since my local grocery store takes it.

Blinkz0rz posted:I can only get this to work occasionally. I feel like there has to be a weird trick to trigger it reliably. I feel like you have to wait for the cursor to start blinking, whether you were just typing or moved it. If the cursor is still solid, the 3D Touch won't register and you'll just end up typing another letter.

While we're talking about headphones, has anyone tried this out? https://thebtunes.com/products/the-btunes?variant=1952685569 I have Sennheiser's Momentum on ear model and definitely am a use case of "charging while I listen" at times, so I'd ideally like to keep the lightning port for that but not replace these headphones, which are awesome.

Godzilla07 posted:When you take a screenshot in 11, there’s a crop/annotate tool that shows up for a few seconds which saves me a lot of time. Though the highlight isn’t as good as Annotable, so for my use that app didn’t get completely Sherlocked. This is life changing for me. I take a LOT of screenshots of things to send out to people in mail/messages and now that I can do it without having to actually save the photo to my camera roll is great.
