Other than the stock mail.app, can anyone recommend a good Exchange client? Ideally, it would be all in one (email, cal, Todo, etc...) but I can work around just email. I was using Mail+ for Outlook and loved it, but with the 6 Plus the Comically Huge Fonts/Keyboard is starting to get on my nerves.

Lum_ posted:I'm a huge fan of Acompli and the iOS 8 update for it just dropped over the weekend. It's an all-in-one client that pulls in *everything*. Thanks. I actually tried that one over the weekend. I could never get it to connect. Even using the exact same settings I have for the stock app (which does work). At this point I think it's the half rear end implementation at my work. I'm migrating to a system in a couple weeks so I'll try again then.

XyrlocShammypants posted:Edit- finally got Acompli it working. Seems decent but nothing amazing. Well Exchange is still hosed up a bit. Not a great start, but hopefully the features make up for it. I ended up deleting my account information from it and uninstalling as soon as I found it it's actually delivering your mail by proxy. I also changed my password right after I did that. Your credentials are stored on their server which retrieves your email and then serves it up to you in their app. That makes me very uncomfortable. No thank you. I really should have been more thorough researching the app before I set it up.

Thirst Mutilator posted:Didn't know this. Added to the OP. I saw it mentioned here, so I hunted all over the site for more information and just found vagueness until I dug it up in their privacy policy. This is literally the only place I saw it mentioned that said, "hey, we have your credentials on tap" quote:Some email accounts (ones that use Microsoft Exchange, for example) also require that you provide your email login credentials, including your username, password, server URL, and server domain. Other accounts (Google Gmail accounts, for example) use the OAuth authorization mechanism which does not require us to access or store your password. I should note, GMail users are in the clear for cached credentials. They still have unfettered access to your email account, and your email is *still* moving over their systems so they can apply the "Focus" algorithm on them. They seriously need to make that more clear in the application description on the App Store. e: added a couple more thoughts. Proteus Jones fucked around with this message at 23:50 on Oct 7, 2014 |

rear end Catchcum posted:so If we signed up with the app but then changed our mind and deleted the app what do we need to do to make sure they no longer have access, just change our email password? If you removed the account from within the app before you deleted it, according to them (at least from what I *think* it said in the privacy statement) it will remove your stuff from their servers. Regardless, change your password so ongoing access is denied. Additionally, if you use Exchange remove the Active Sync client in your OWA settings called "Acompli".

Goons, Beats Music or Spotify? Tell me which one I should get and why. While the social stuff is nice, that part doesn't really interest me. I'm more interested in variety of playlists and how easy they are to discover and how the app changes to your tastes over time. I currently have trial on both, but I don't think a week is enough time to really get what the advantages of each are.

The Devil Tesla posted:Taking a look at their security overview, there isn't a "credential db" goldmine. Instead they isolate user accounts, so an attacker would have to individually decode the accounts each user uses. That would be the most common sense way to run an email proxy service. My issue isn't really with what Acompli does, but how it's disclosed. If I were using it for a personal email account I really wouldn't have much of an issue. Unfortunately, in this case, I was looking for a replacement to the stock mail.app for Exchange. I really should have done more research than the App Store page so that's on me. The problem comes in with corporate users in this day of BYOD at many enterprises. At the very least it bypasses any enforced PIN/Password policy that a company may require for you to link your device into their email infrastructure. On top of that is this would violate many corporate data retention policies with regards to company confidential and possible trade secrets. For me personally, I personally deal with a lot of security and vulnerability information (which makes it double bad I didn't do my due diligence) which means my data handling policies are even more stringent. Now, I already notified my IT group. Since I already deleted my Active Sync entry on my account and immediately changed my password I'm more or less in the clear. I don't foresee any additional fallout beyond the "what were you thinking?" but if it does come down on my head, it was my lapse of judgement that caused it. The reason I took an "alarmist" stance is that a) it's not clearly labeled and b)it's one of the few really slick Exchange clients that is optimized for iPhone 6/6plus. I wanted people who were thinking of using it for Exchange to realize they may be in violation of their company policies.

warning for Acompli, and none for Mailbox. Mailbox also uses a proxy service, doesn't promise to delete all your data when you leave, and is owned by a company with Condoleezza Rice on its board of directors. And there's no way to delete a mailbox account, meaning that I had to manually deauthorize Mailbox from each of my gmail account when I was done with their service.

Yay! iKonic released and update to Mail+. Finally optimized for the iPhone6/6plus. No more comically huge display.

Also, not sure if this is unusual or not, but Mailbox does not show up under Settings>Notification Center. It's not listed. Would really love some help on this. I also have this issue. The only help as far as I know is wait for it to be addressed in an update. Some people have said deleting mailbox and then reinstalling fixed it, but I haven't been able to get it to work.

I ended up using Boxer for my iCloud emails because of the badge issue and the fact that mailbox.app still suffers from the COMICALLY HUGE font/keyboard not being optimized for the 6/6+. e: I'm not saying go buy Boxer. I had purchased it before I moved to mailbox, so I already had it to fall back on.

OldSenileGuy posted:Ever since I updated 1Password to the latest version, it never asks for TouchID unless I just had the app open and unlocked, and just switched away from it for a second. If I open the app cold, it always asks for my master password. It didn't do this when iOS8 first came out, it changed to this behavior with the last big update. The only time it should be asking for the Master Password is the 1st time you access it after you've rebooted the iPhone or you have grubby, nasty fingers and TouchID gives up on trying to find a fingerprint. I just verified mine only asked for a fingerprint after I unloaded 1Password and re-opened it. I also have it set to lock after I move away from the app. Agilebits has a really good support forum and should be able to help you out if it's just flat out not using Touch ID when you tell it to in the Security section of Settings.

dizzywhip posted:I'm looking for a grocery list app or a general to-do app that can function as a grocery list. Specifically, I'd like one that remembers all the items that I've entered in the past so I can scroll through them and select ones that I want to re-add or get suggestions when I'm typing. Ideally that would be the only thing it does -- I'd prefer that the app didn't try to be "smart" and automatically categorize items by type of food or whatever. My SO and I use Shopping List by hensoft. As you type in items it will list past items that match. The biggest draw for us is you can set up list sync so she can put stuff on the list and it will update my app. EDIT: I think they have a 'lite' version so you might be able to test to see if it meets your needs.

ManMythLegend posted:Yeah, I just had my first hang up this morning oppening facebook messenger. I think it's too soon to tell if this is going to really annoy me or not. This all seems to be related to the new keyboard API. Except for "secure" or password fields, it looks like anything that accepts text input is using this new API, regardless of whether a custom keyboard is installed. Custom keyboards are a brand new thing barely over a month old. Apple never had to worry about it before. Yeah, they probably had issues pop up in the betas, but it should get sorted shortly. Even though it really should have been identified and addressed before general release.

DorianGravy posted:I have another question about Apple IDs. I have two IDs right now, one using an old email and one using a new email. I want to get rid of the old email address. If I do, will I lose access to that Apple ID? Presumably I can't update that Apple ID to use the same email as the other ID, right? You would be correct. I had my iTunes account set to my gmail account. And an iCloud account. I've been told more than once by Apple that there is no way to combine them. I just have to remember to change my iTunes account information so it doesn't use the iCloud creds.

bolind posted:Unfortunately, no. There's another bug which somehow prevents this because I "haven't properly set up e-mail." I have no idea why, I've tried, and I believe I have. I actually ran into that with another app. Ultimately it's because I use a third party email and turned off email in my iCloud settings. iCloud email needs to be on for "email" functions in other apps to work. They can only use the default email app in iOS. I ended up turning on iCloud email burying the mail.app icon on the Screen of Misfit Apps and turning off all notifications for the default app.

teraflame posted:Is it easy to get started with 1password? Can I like import saved passwords from chrome quickly? No, the keystores don't talk to each other if that's what you mean. While it causes inconvenience in this case, it's pretty much a good thing from a security standpoint that you can't import and export via 3rd party applications. EDIT: You can export stuff from the keychain using the CLI. See EDIT below. The only way to get Safari passwords into 1Password is to visit each site, auto login using Safari and then allow 1Password Safari extension in OS X to store it. Can't do it at all with the iOS extension. That extension can only fill out logons from 1Password. I just do mine in a "as I come across it" method. However, for the most part I'm logging in via 1Password and then allowing Safari to remember the login details. EDIT now I see you mentioned Chrome. 1Password *will* import plaintext files in LastPass, SplashID or CSV. This is for OS X only, iOS there is no import. Latest versions or Chrome use the OS X keychain. Go to this page and there's a comment for OS X regarding getting a list of passwords from the Chrome keychain. http://superuser.com/questions/655294/how-can-i-export-chrome-passwords Proteus Jones fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Nov 30, 2014 |

tuyop posted:You're going to have to rename poo poo yourself in all the apps. The only thing I'd disagree with is Notability as there's really no easy way to get handwritten notes into Evernote since there's no native sync. I use Noteshelf, personally. It has a built in Evernote exporter and there's In App purchase to set notebooks created to sync automatically with Evernote as well. You can export as a PDF or a PNG into Evernote which I like. Plus the pen stroke rendering looks so much better in that one. The only thing I'd recommend, is instead of created a *ton* of notebooks in Evernote, is maybe a adopting a GTD workflow for your notes. Use a hierarchical tag structure and create a bunch of Smart Searches. The cool thing about that is depending on your search criteria, you can pull up items you never would have thought would be related. You would be unlikely to using a plain each-subject-gets-a-notebook.

maduin posted:The security on Acompli is probably pretty good at this point -- I mean, Microsoft owns the company now, and you've got to think they're doing something right. That's not the issue. The issue is a third party handling your credentials to your corporate account. This is typically against most company's security policies. Additionally, if you handle any kind of company confidential, trade secrets, or government data with a security classification you probably have security policies in place that forbid this kind of thing. A lot of times this can open you up to dismissal and even civil or criminal proceedings. When Acompli was first released, I had to dive into the Privacy Statement to see that they actually acted as a proxy for your email. Policy aside, I deal with pretty sensitive internal data so that made it a non-starter for me.

maduin posted:It's just Acompli rebranded as Outlook (still a great app), but they promise updates are coming. Right, see the whole problem with Acompli was the 3rd party proxy stuff they were doing for mail and no one here knew them from a hole in the ground. And auditing yet another 3rd party mail solution was a low on the priority list. However, now that MS has folded into their systems we don't need an audit as that was already done when we spun up Office 365. Even when MS bought them, they were still branded as Acompli and we could not use them per policy. Now that's its under the MS brand our usage falls under the SLAs, SOWs and contract we currently have with MS. EDIT: Words are hard
