    Is it possible to set a certain contact to ignore "silent/airplane mode" and ring anyways?

    I know several people who are very sick and I would like to make it so that if they text or call me, it rings or dings even if my phone is on silent mode. So they can reach me 24//7 if they are having a crisis. ideally I would like to create a group in my contacts and apply these settings to...

    "Tri-tone" must die.

    Does iOS13 have any provision to set the default notification tone, or set the tones individually on apps that otherwise don't set them? "Tri-tone" has been plaguing us since, what, iOS4? Why we can set the sound for what happens when we AirDrop someone, but not differentiate between my stock...

    I've noticed that when wearing my Apple Watch 3 that my iPhone 10 no longer shows or provides sound alerts on the lock screen for reminders. Other alerts also seem to be missing but its the reminders that I notice the most. I've experimented with the watch off and the alerts sound as usual...

    Reminders notification lag/bug?

    I just updated to 10.13.1 last night from the last version of 10.12.whatever. I've noticed that I still get Reminders notifications at the original time if the reminder date/time is changed, or at least changed within an hour or so of the reminder's original date/time. For example, I had a...

    Annoying Music App and Notifications Alert in iOS 10 beta 1

    Just a brief test of iOS 10 beta 1 on iPhone 6s Plus. These two are deal breakers for me. I listen to music a lot, and all of them are either from iTunes Store or from elsewhere. i.e. None of them are from Apple Music. The new music app blows a lot of elements up, making them big enough. This...
