Other What is your favorite iPhone feature

I had an Android 13 device the last few months, I didn't hate it like I thought I did (the device wasn't the best, but the OS was fine). Android 13 was not that much of a departure from iOS, there's really not a lot in it. I found Android more customisable on a micro level, but at times those settings got quite confusing, so in some ways iOS makes it less complicated by offering less customisable options. I just find iOS a slicker experience.... although I do think the settings app needs a re-think, some stuff is hidden away in a way that doesn't make sense.

Handoff for me has always been a favourite, and being able to use iMessage and FaceTime across other Apple devices.

Mine is that iOS is fast, stable and secure 🙂

to be honest standby mode has got to be my favourite feature these days. fact I can use widgets in standby mode to keep up to date with latest NBA scores through the night without needing to check my watch is so good.

What door lock do you use for your front door? When I was looking into getting one last year, they all seemed to have mixed reviews. I've since bought a smart garage door opener as an alternate way to get in, so I suppose I'm a little less concerned being stranded outside. It would be nice to carry around one less key everywhere.

I use the Schlage Encode Plus. It took awhile to track down one in stock last year (not sure if that’s changed) and it was on the expensive side, but worth it imo!

You can use your iPhone or Apple Watch to unlock, and the key is stored in your Apple Wallet, so no need for a 3rd party app. You can create passcodes for different people, which is nice when you don’t want to give out your own code or want to give/take away access after a few days for someone visiting. It’s worked perfectly for us! Haven’t had 1 issue.

Thanks! My local Lowe’s didn’t have any in stock. Cheaper on Amazon anyway.

Just make sure it’s the Encode Plus*! They also have a regular Encode that does not have the Apple iPhone/Watch capability.

ProRAW / 48mp and portrait mode from the cameras. The 15 pro max is fantastic for taking photos and portraits.

AirDrop has to be one of the most under-appreciated. It works so well that most of us just don’t notice it. The other feature would be the build quality. I love the frosted glass on the back of my iPhone 15.
