@lemmy.worldI’m used to browsing the web on Firefox with ad blocking - works great. My experience of Safari with AdBlock Pro is much less good - many websites block access unless it’s disabled. I also used to have good results with Firefox on Android. Does anyone have better suggestions? Many thanks!
In settings, sounds, system sounds, there is an option for system clicks
I have that turned off, but everything's I tap the keyboard it clicks. How do I turn off the clicking sound?
Apple says sounds &haptics but I can't find that option
Edit: solved : I have a third party keyboard SwiftKey installed. That was what was doing it. Forgot I had that installed. Dealing with this for a year. Lol
iOS App Store seems to have about nine hundred ‘file managers’ all of which are anything but and demand ridiculous subscription costs.
Is there a decent file manager for iOS that actually will do file management things like select multiple file & rename etc that isn’t a scammy subscription/Ad ridden mess?
I'm looking for a message backup solution
my iCloud is almost full, most messages
I don't want to remove them completely
so I would like to download all the messages from my phone
and put them in some web application that will allow me to view them
so I'm probably looking for two apps, one that downloads iOS messages to my PC/Mac and some sort of web app (preferably self-hosted) that will display them and allow searching
then i can set auto delete of messages older than one year
can you recommend anything?
So I use this really cool feature a lot on my iPhone, and I really love how you can make text replacements. I have a lot so I could easily shortcut my way through conversations.
For example:
Whenever I type “tm” it results in “/me”, this is because I am actively on twitch and kick. This is the same with Channel Points.
What’s your thoughts on the iOS text replacements feature, do you use it or have you heard of it? I don’t see much people talking about this feature or maybe I’m not in the right zone of iOS.
To enable it if you have not yet knew about this feature;
Setting > General > Keyboard > Text Replacement
Like if I want to create running functional programs that import stuff like AVFoundation and just don't have the UI/visual side to worry about, is there a way to do that and on iOS/iPhone cuz that's all I have rn?
I just submitted feedback to Apple because I was shocked that there was no apparent way to add a folder bookmark to the Home Screen. You can save a website to the Home Screen on iOS and created an alias on MacOS. So, I don't think this is something that's technically not possible to do nor a foreign concept for Apple.
Use case: I'm traveling and have all my documents in a folder in iCloud. Yes, you can set that folder as a favorite in Files but it would be more convenient, given. the hectic and stressful nature of traveling, to simply have access to that folder from the Home Screen.
Even better, now that I think about it, it would be great to have a Smart Folder so any document or email or booking confirmation or SMS or WhatsApp message, etc., that I tag in iCloud with "London" could easily be found from one spot on the Home Screen. Perhaps there's a future where we can ask Siri to show me all my documents and messages for my upcoming trip (not that I trust AI will ever be smart enough to figure this all out).
I recently converted some internal services to use a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) with SSL. Previously, I accessed them via 'sub.domain.com:1234', but now, with nginx proxying from port 443 to the actual service port, I no longer need to specify the port. However, iOS keeps remembering the port whenever I start typing the subdomain. How can I prevent this?
