Some ISPs and their routers don't allow for the DNS settings to be changed, unfortunately. Still can be worked around, but sometimes the easiest solution is to just edit the DNS se…

I've tried Shure (and other) earphones like this before, but could never stand the rustling of cable noise. Does that bother you at all, or do you have any recommendations for stop…

I think most versions of iOS have had a built-in slideshow function in the Photos application. Try loading up some photos onto the iPad, add to an album, and see if there's a slide…

That's probably the case with all HR monitors, no? If it's not securely in place, any HR monitor will have the same problem. I bought a knock-off velcro wrist strap for my watch an…

Most likely that the absence of movement data is perceived as sitting/standing. Since the stand goal requires standing and moving for at least one minute (the purpose of the stand …

If the author of this post had spent a few minutes looking into what functionality the Watch had before purchasing it, he could've had a much different experience. This reads like …

That's not true. Some of the best photos I've seen were not taken with an DSLR. You'll definitely get higher quality photos, but that doesn't mean they're more interesting. But I d…

Having lived in London for several years, I have a special hatred of black cab drivers. I have never had a single good experience using a black cab, and very few of my friends do e…

You should look at the specs and how FaceID works. It's so much more than just a camera. The iPhone X is currently the only device to support face detection. All other iPads, iPhon…

FaceID won't work if you're not looking directly at it. They can't force your eyes to look at it.

I'm in my 30s. I enjoy movies but don't often go to the movie theater for a number of reasons, but they're all inherent to the ticket cost. Prices are often $15-$20 for most shows …

Considering how much Apple is focused on Apple Music, I'm not surprised. Both the Shuffle and Nano don't support the service, only able to sync content within an iTunes library. It…

Sorry, this was not aimed at/related to dev.to - just an observation of address fields in general. Glad you were displaying geographically appropriate address info :)

In a very small way, it always bothers me as a Brit (now living in the US) to see address information ask for (and even require) a ZIP code for int'l customers for two reasons: 1. …
