actually it looks like there will be an iPad mini and Pro, but no iPad Original Flavour

the new iPads will also have the unibody, rounded shape of the iPhone 6

will they have the unsightly camera wart of the iphone 6 as well?

doesn't it? it lists my recent playlists and albums

but apple music hosed me there too, itunes redownloaded a bunch of tracks and google music updater uploaded them all and now I have a poo poo-ton of duplicate tracks on google music so thanks apple for making some other service unusable to make yours seem less relatively bad

yeah it has that but i just want a straight up list of recently played tracks. sometimes youre driving and hear a song on a radio station but you dont get to thumbs up it and then you forget until later and you cant find it again

oh yeah your anecdote reminded me another thing that would be nice is a "do not include my library" switch since i pay for all access. i hate seeing all that poor quality album art from uploaded music now

if by fix you mean remotely detonating you're phone then yes

guess what, the ios keyboard sucks rear end and apple should fully support the third party keyboard feature they added instead of trying to make the experience so bad their default keyboard looks good by comparison

this is actually their strategy with everything

with itunes match they duped my music tracks in such a way that google music uploaded them as new tracks, and now I've got a bunch of duplicate albums in my google poo poo taking up storage

its not a great solution but you can wipe your google music library and reupload once things settle down in itunes land

so i was gonna sell my 16gb 5 on ebay but i just got an offer from verizon to "recycle" for a $200 acct credit. my 5 is in decent shape but it's a refurb from asurion, has a couple small scratches and there's some purple blotch on the camera that i can't get rid of. looks like 5's are going for a little under $200 new on ebay. should i do the verizon thing ???????????

instead of giving verizon loving anything donate your old phone to a womens shelter and go on with your life

your animations dont get stuck halfway now? when you swipe on a messenger notification and use your thumbprint to unlock it doesnt get stuck halfway between the lockscreen and numpad? your homescreens dont get stuck half an icon into the next screen, disabling all attempts to select an app? the new old search screen doesnt take forever to populate with news and all that poo poo before you can actually search with it? im jealous of your functional phone

ios 9.1 did not improve 3rd party keyboard performance. actually it seems a little worse than ios8 now. don't know why this is so hard when my nexus 4 did great with 3rd party keyboard years ago

i dont have sound customization settings for a single non-apple app in the system settings. does apple expose that functionality to 3rd party developers?

this apple pay business is hosed. like accepting apple pay doesn't mean you can't have a competing pay-by-smartphone tech at the same time. it doesn't cost them anything to take  Pay vs. a credit card.

and canada still just has american express supporting apple pay? god drat.



they see apple pay as an inflection point just before the majority of people convert to paying for things via phone and want to lock people into their system. but when their system is years late and less convenient the only thing they can do to make it attractive is make it the only choice

No one wants to lose that sweet customer data that is keeping them afloat, since apparently selling things for money is no longer a viable business strategy.

the apple pay thing is about tangible millions and millions of dollars in credit card fees. stores have plenty of other ways to track your buying habits

Music through Bluetooth is fine, direction on Waze or any other map service is impressively terrible for many car manufacturers. Jeep/Chrysler turn map announcements into a phone call with leading and trailing sounds, amazing stupid and loses part of the message. On some forums someone found that Bluetooth has separate audio and voice configuration but the systems has to be reconfigured every time you turn on the car. Awesome sauce.

If yo ubuy a Chrysler you should be drat thankful for any part of it that works
