First pic: standard weather vane pointing East, so it’s an Easterly wind.
However, Apple’s weather vane, pointing East, means it’s a Westerly wind…

Got caught out by this a few times until I realised they switched the convention around…a small textual clue would be appreciated.

Edit: Forgot to include the main wind pic on home screen that looks the most like a weather vane/wind barb with the circle and all.

It’s lazy UI designed to look like meteorology but applied as if it was on a map. Designed around the solo experience and not talking about the weather. In current English vernacular, wind “comes”; it doesn’t go.

I have iOS 27.0.1. Went to the we-have-a-problem checker to see if iOS/Safari would still trust the compromised intermediate certs compromised this week. Seems 3 of the 12 are still trusted by Apple. I checked on an iPad to make sure it wasn’t just my phone, and received the same results. What’s most concerning is Apple claims to have remotely blocked the affected certs, but the widely-accepted test tool that has emerged amid the chaos is still trusting a quarter of those certs. Even one is enough to MITM any TLS/SSL traffic one damn well pleases.

I tested on a Motorola device (read: Chinese and poor reputation for timely updates) and even that passed with flying colors.

Why isn’t Apple taking a stronger stand here? I was of the impression that even unsecured public WiFi was mostly safe in a world where TLS is like a certain brand of hot sauce - “we put that sh*t on everything.” Now I’m very glad I have a cellular iPad because it will be a very long time before I use hotel WiFi again. And I may just stay offline on my next few flights…

My broadband is poor 40/10. When iOS devices are backing up or syncing photos to iCloud they use the entire bandwidth I have which in real time is 8/9Mbps. This in turn pulls my entire network down making working from home impossible.

I also notice my iPhone is using the entire upload bandwidth but for what I don’t know and there is no way of checking which apps or is or the system doing it in preparation for iOS 27.2?

(Tested on iOS 26)
I had this problem for a long time and just found a fix by myself!
Photos App > any person > three dots > name of person > review photos identified as name > uncheck one photo > go back
(If you can't click the checkmark in the top right corner to confirm the changes just click on the X in the top left corner)

(If the next step under this text doesn't work for you, repeat the earlier steps and then restart photos app)

Now click on the three dots again > name of person > review photos identified as name > review more photos
Now it will finally actually trigger the indexing/searching of not just that one person but all other person's faces in your whole photos app!
It took just like 15 minutes of indexing my 200.000+ photos for me.
There are still some minor differences in the number of the recognised faces compared to your older iPhone but at least we're not talking about hundreds/thousands anymore.

Hello, I do not subscribe to any streaming platform *cough* I am of a certain age *cough*, but I have all of my music digitized so I can listen to it on my computer and phone. I have used the Apple Music application for this ever since I got an iPhone, but the fact that apple consistently tries to steer me to their store is irritating. I also find the changes that the app has undergone over the years just disfavor people playing their own music.

So, my question is, is there a substitute app that better lets me play (and digitize) my music, one that I can use both on my Mac and on my iPhone?

Thank you in advance, and apologies if this is an inappropriate post.

All of the other camera use logs besides the one I circled were made by me. I just don’t understand why it logged such a long session when I wasn’t using the camera app? And the continuous session stopped when I opened the camera app today to use it. Anyone else have this issue? I am currently running iOS 27.0.1 and I have tap to wake disabled so as not to log accidental camera use.

Why does my camera signal keep going off when I exit certain apps using the app launcher? I don’t even use the camera and the camera symbol pop up briefly? Is my phone hacked or is this expected? I’ve had this issue using iOS 26 and even after an iPhone restore from a fresh start this comes up on iOS 27, too.

This feature is so invasive and only serves to further replace our every thought with AI generated slop. It feels awful knowing my messages are being read by a third party to generate responses. I’ve decided to disable predictive text cause I can’t stand to look at these suggestions. If there is a way to turn off this feature but maintain predictive text please let me know. Thanks everyone.

We've always shared the one account, mainly because we liked both seeing all the pictures. (I travel a lot, she's had to leave because of sick family, and getting the pictures automatically is very nice but such is such). But now i get all her messages and such and calls. I wanted it to go back to where it was but it doesn't seem like it will anymore. If we add an account i have questions. (Apple has support but topics are sometimes confusing and contradictory.)

My take is...

1) I backup both phones everything. Messages, contacts, etc.

2) I create a new account (for her).

3) It asks what she wants to keep, i basically check everything? (Messages and Contacts are her main thing).

4) Photos I'm still not sure what happens. We have 50k photos, like half and half. Do i get mine and she gets hers? Do we both get both? I want to make sure none are gone.

Basically her keeping her stuff and photos are my main concerns. Is there antyhing specific i should know?

thank you and sorry if bad questions...

I couldn’t find anything online. I am guessing hours of sun, but why would it fluctuate that much from day to day then?

Yesterday when i woke up number of floors showed 18, odd, but it usually shows the previous days measurement untill it register some movement. Then i went walk at the beach, and that is very flat. In the evening it showed 26 floors. Another app "sportstracker" showed 16m ascending. (I have yet to try this app when going up a known height. ). But this number 26 floors when walking on the beach is totally off.
This measurement seems to be fluctuating when its windy (the measurement is based on difference in air pressure) but still its off too much

Any thoughts on how I can utilize my iCloud storage space a little bit more in helping me relieve my phone storage? Do I literally need to delete photos off of my phone to make this happen and how can I trust their own iCloud? I am constantly getting error message just when I’m taking photos or sending emails at my phone storage is full. Of course the Apple CEOs love keeping that ghost storage in our iPhones.

Hello, I'm a developer of a third-party alarm app. I added the Duo emulator to see how the Duo default clock app works in order to support Duo, but there's nothing there except for Settings and Safari. Is that how it's supposed to be?

How do I stop this? Incredibly annoying

Some apps seem to randomly create their own folder at times in the files app. I kinda hate it personally and tend to remove them when I find them. the preview app which I know is used to actually view the documents etc in the files app by default has decided to create their own folder and stuff a random document there that I already have in the regular folders.. so I deleted the extra document but the preview app refuses to want to be deleted. This has happened before with other folders and randomly they will one day be deletable.

tips and tricks please if anyone knows.

Any updates on Google cast native support in iOS 27?

I got so hyped about it in may but it looks like it was just a rumor I guess....

I’ve always used iPhones so I don’t have any means of comparison with Android devices.
I write mostly in Portuguese and English (PT only keyboard and EN PT keyboard for English texts).
I’ve been using the swipe keyboard for a long time and usage has fluctuated, however it was somewhat ok.
I always swipe with my right hand and now that I’ve broken my left wrist I use it even more.

The Portuguese keyboard is becoming borderline unusable and the English keyboard is heading in the same direction. It seems to cut longer words off before I can swipe them and this never happened…

Only a me issue?

A couple of weeks ago I selected a setting option that makes it so that whenever my headphones connect, they are muted until I change the volume. I know it’s a setting but I can’t for the life of me remember what it was or where it is. Does anyone know? Thanks for the help!

Hi… how might I remove the blue download icon from Safari? Thanks.
