    iPad setup

    I just bought an iPad 6 as I am under the impression that it is the oldest, cheapest thing that can use an iPad pencil, but setup is driving me nuts. It keeps on asking to be connected to a Mac or a PC with iTunes installed. My Mac is ancient and won’t start and my PC is down and will take...

    simplest alternative to Photos for Grandma

    Hi Everyone, I would like to ask for suggestions, we had to upgrade my Gran's iPad (4th gen) to a 6th gen on which the Photos app is much more "complicated" more options, new design etc. which really confuses her vs. the Photos app on the 4th gen iPad (iOS11). Could you suggest an Apple Photos...

    PIVOT case for iPad Mini 6

    Hey y’all Presale happening on the new PIVOT case for aviation/pilot use from flyboys. For most users these cases are not anything special, but for pilots that use their iPad as a EFB / EKB (electronic flight bag/electronic knee board) this is a must have accessory. There’s a discount while...

    As title really. My Apple Smart Cover for my 6th gen 9.7” is falling apart but I really like it. Apple don’t sell them any more so I wondered if anyone knew which brand made one that was pretty close? Don’t want to pay a lot, as it’s not worth a lot anymore but it’s still going strong! am UK...

    iPad iPad 6th Gen to iPad 8th Gen: worth the small upgrade cost?

    Hey. I’m a guy who tends to like seeing what the low end offers, and holding onto tech until it no longer gets software updates - but I’m tempted by the low cost of the new iPad. Apple will give me £140 for my current iPad. For day-to-day usage, do you folks (preferably with experience of this...

    Mail badge count incorrect. RAM issue?

    I often have an incorrect badge count on Mail. I have an iPhone 7 and an iPad 6th generation, which only have 2 GB of RAM. I’m just wondering if any of you with newer devices that have more RAM also have badge count problems. I have push-enabled IMAP with Fastmail. On the latest beta, but had...

    Is there something I misunderstand about Mail notifications?

    I’m running beta 4, but I had the same issue in iOS 13. I either get mail badge updates on my iPhone 7 or on my iPad 6, but often not both. I use the same push-enabled IMAP account on both. Is it supposed to be like that? Where when two iOS devices (same Apple ID) are accessing the same mail...

    iPad Ipad 6 gen Sidecar performance

    My iPad doesn't really serve much purpose these days, except for being a Sidecar display I've noticed. That's great to me, as I like to do multi-screen video editing and music production. Then again, I've noticed quite a drawback to using the iPad as a second display. My biggest complaint was...

    I just got my first iOS device since the iPhone 4.... and I've noticed it has some pretty decent backlight bleed on the right side..... it bothers me pretty badly, as I'm a stickler for panel quality on my tech. Would getting a replacement help or is this an issue I cant avoid? iPad 6th gen...

    Apple Pencil 1st Gen - Tip Offset from center

    I dropped my Apple Pencil by mistake and although I don’t notice any changes in its functionality whatsoever, I noticed the tip is slightly offset (not bent!) from the center of the pencil... by a very small amount, almost unnoticeable. It’s only when I run my finger across it it feels a bit...
