My one quibble with outlook vs spark is the archive button is less convenient, top right instead of centre bottom in Spark. Otherwise it's very nice and quick.

Endless Mike posted:Does anyone have any recommendations for a cataloging app? I want somewhere to document all my comic trades/movies/records/whatever. UPC scanning would be ideal and having a Mac app with cloud support would be a nice bonus. I have no problems paying for quality. Delicious Library was pretty neat for that on the Mac way back when, whatever happened to that company and why didn't they get in on the app craze (as far as I can tell?) There is a companion app to scan upc but I have no idea if the Mac app is being updated or what.. https://delicious-monster.com priznat fucked around with this message at 01:17 on Oct 27, 2016 |

Agreed that the MS apps are great. I use OneNote a lot for work and have been trying to train myself to use it on my personal account. For cloud storage apps I still like Dropbox the best, but Onedrive is a close second. Google Photos is the best for cloud photos though.

I was thinking of doing a subscription to one of the big newspapers/news magazines (wsj, nytimes, economist, ?) and was wondering if anyone had recommendations based on the iOS apps alone, since that's where I'd be reading it mostly.

I use Google Play Music with CarPlay and it works fine, I can skip tracks and all that no problem. I was used to just using bluetooth before my car got the carplay upgrade so I have low standards, can't browse on my car's display etc. Now it shows the album art where it doesn't with bluetooth I've thought about switching to apple music but nahhh. I get $2 off per month with google so I can just stick with it!

Question Mark Mound posted:I'm okay with having my music in the default app since all the functionality I need is so basic anyway: Offline music synced from my PC (since a lot of stuff I listen to a lot isn't in the UK store). I actually went the other way from google to apple. Mostly because of carplay support but also because it seems like the google radio stations get pretty stale - repeating tracks etc. I don't think they put as much effort into curating as apple does. Pretty minor though, they're both good services. I believe apple music also has a song match/upload thing like itunes match so you can store your tunes as well. I'm sure they can sell some analytics to record labels etc but I doubt there is any legal danger.

Annoyingly, OpenVPN no longer works with the iOS 10.3.2 beta 1. Totally aware of potential issues with beta software so that's fine, just thought I'd mention it if anyone is trying to figure out why they can't vpn no more https://forums.openvpn.net/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=23780 (not much info so far)

Virtue posted:The Outlook interface is slick but I don't see any way to get more granular than focused vs other. Is there any way to bulk archive or mark as read? Every morning I get ~50 "alert" emails I have to sift through and only read a handful of them. Spark let me bulk archive the unread ones after I was done. I'm wondering if it is related to their addition of "drag/drop" between Readdle apps on the ipad, if that had an effect. I've also noticed it is really slow and am switching back over to outlook for now.

GoldfishStew posted:I have a peeve with Apple Music. If i add an album to my Apple Music which is on pre-release, when the album actually comes out, no it only would i appreciate a notification (like when i would purchase pre-orders through iTunes) it doesn't add the previously grey'd out songs. I have to delete that's album, find it again, and add it again. Annoying. I just encountered that too, it would fail downloading the other songs until I removed it and re-added. (Lorde's Melodrama) We should both file reports on that, is there anything in the app that makes this easy or would it be a general purpose apple bug report I wonder. My only other beef with apple music is streaming on a pc/mac requires itunes, barrrrrf. I miss the google play web player.

hypnophant posted:I was in an airport terminal recently in which every seat, literally every seat in the terminal, had an iPad mounted in a little stand in front of it. Every single seat, including every seat at every table in every restaurant, all the waiting areas... Everywhere. There were thousands of iPads in this terminal. I have no idea who conceived of such a thing or who approved it, but I have to assume that's the use case. Was that Newark? Because I went to a restaurant there and had to use an ipad to order but everything about it was broken, horrible and confusing and my order got lost and my travelling buddy got a free beer that just arrived despite not having ordered it. That was a couple years back so hopefully they have ironed out the kinks.

Yeah it kind of reeks of questionable purchase decisions with a side of kickbacks to me. Goin for a modern thing while being total overkill and unnecessary. The servers at the Newark restaurant had nothing good to say about them, that’s for sure. They couldn’t take orders themselves they were just always being waved over to help enter the order into the ipad or give people a different one because one had crashed/locked up.

CarPlay question: can Waze use voice while connected as it seems when I press the mic and yell at it it has no effect. Is support ever going to be added for 3rd party carplay stuff to get voice support? Otherwise it’s kinda useless a lot of the time.

For anyone who hasn’t figured it out when editing the entry in 1pass tap the “add one time password” and then the qr icon and scan the one it shows you for a google authenticator and bingo bango it should have a six digit time limited code for you. It’s real slick. I am moving everything over from authy and I have one OTP entry that doesn’t have what it’s for and now I’m too scared to delete the app in case I lose that one.. I think it may be ifttt.

Huge bonus points if it can sync across multiple devices and invite different people, but that's not a dealbreaker. Definitely check out microsoft OneNote.

I prefer the older version on PC (the new one hides a lot of the functionality I find) but the iOS version is much improved imo.

Yeah - and even the ones that were would usually just have the article title with no subheading telling you what it actually was about. It was really poorly done overall. Woo a couple covers in motion and everyone is supposed to go nuts for it I guess. The thing that sucks now though is the news app has the news+ stuff interleaved with the regular articles which is especially annoying.
