Your insights are pure gold, thank you! Now, onto more pressing matters-have you ever thought about narrating an audiobook? Because honestly, I'd listen to you read the ingredients label on a can of potted meat and still be captivated.

For the older user the record message to yourself function is great. Record something interesting and then wait a few days before playing it. With any luck you'll have forgotten you sent it and be convinced you've got a new friend. Send one in reply and you create a feedback loop with your new friend that'll last a lifetime 🙂

@davidmorrison6941 11 күн бұрын

Agreed. The transcript on 17.5 now terminates at “copywrite” text which appears to be hidden. I tested 17.4.1 on my wife’s iPhone and I can copy the entirety of the transcript. The AI engine (co-pilot or chatpt) error out on the amount of text but I’m probably doing something wrong as I haven’t worked much with AI yet. 8:45 Great Content Tom!

I really love these videos thank you very much BTW I have actually managed to copy text from a voice recording in messages so long as the message is long enough you will get a “show more” option in the text bubble, then when you click “show more” it opens all the text on a separate new page and you can just copy it then but for some reason if the message isn’t very long you cant just copy it from the message string itself, anyway I hope that helps and I haven’t misunderstood anything 🙏👊👍

Great tips! I will switch to iOS whenever they make customizable keyboard layouts possible. I'm Hungarian and type on a layout having letters like éá őú öüó which reside on the right side of the keyboard, next to L and around the ENTER button. I know long press a is á or long press e is é but that is not where I look for these letters when typing, so it makes me completely freeze and numb when I type naturally. Small things, but they matter A LOT!

At 1:02 you discuss tapping my contact card at the top of the screen in the messages app. My card doesn’t show there, but I have six pinned chats. If those pinned chats weren’t there, would that change things, or is there a setting I need to change? I’m on an iPhone SE 2023, in case that matters.

I did find that this works from the Contacts app if you click on the "message" button at the top of the screen. Or, in the Messages app, if you open a message you've sent to yourself previously. Not as easy to do if you haven't sent a message to yourself recently.

I was very excited the other day because I finally learned an iPhone trick that I didn't know after using the iPhone for almost 14 years. This trick allows you to override the silence mode by going to the contact, selecting ringtone, and activating emergency bypass. I tried it immediately on my son's iPhone because his phone is always on vibrate. Unfortunately, it didn't work, and the phone didn't ring. And raise to record a message doesn't work for me
