Is there a setting for the Voicemail Transcription or some kind of minimum hardware requirement or something? I have visual voicemail on my carrier but I’ve left myself voicemails on my 5S in iOS 10 and they are not getting transcribed.

That’s too bad, particularly because Downcast is part of CarPlay, I believe.

I want support for Downcast, so I can get Siri to change my podcasts while I drive.

Although I fully realize that in the BIG PICTURE OF LIFE, droid names are not important at all... this was still the best thing I’ve read on the Internet this week.

I was once a “calendar app guy” and tried all sorts of calendar apps. And my wife, who uses the stock iPhone calendar app, kept getting upset with me because the calendar invitations that I’d share from Calendars 5 or Cal or Sunrise or whatever I was using that month always came in to her emailgarbled and hard to…

Sweet! I was unaware of that, but, yeah, that’s pretty much exactly what I’d love to see integrated into Google or Apple Maps.

Yup, that’s an entirely fair point.

Here’s a Google Maps feature I’d like to see - using the make/model of my car, estimated gas consumption and route info to tell me where I would reasonably need to fill up my car BEFORE I leave on the trip.

Installed iOS 10 beta on my nearly three-year-old 5S that’s going to be replaced in a few months.

These days, I mainly use Siri in the car as my hands-free assistant while driving. Mostly sending and reading aloud iMessages and sometimes making a note or reminder.

I’ll say this, too - probably the BEST SINGLE FEATURE that Tweetbot has is timeline sync: the ability to use Tweetbot on your iPhone and then pick up your iPad and have the app magically place you back exactly where you left off.

Yeah, the last time I switched back to Tweetbot due to what I thought were too many Twitter ads, Twitter was giving me one promoted tweet for every 10 or 12. And one day last week, I was scrolling my timeline in the morning after waking up, catching up on the overnight feed, and it was *literally* one promoted tweet…

Good piece. I’m a longtime Tweetbot user but I generally only use it these days when Twitter annoys me with too many ads. I hit that point last week when I was getting one promoted tweet every 8 organic tweets. But as great as Tweetbot is, the lack of support for basics like Twitter cards lessens the overall…

At this point, would it kill Apple to release an iMessage dealy for Windows?

My account didn’t get suspended, but Google did basically stop running the script after less than 1 full day due to the frequency of checks. So I uninstalled it.

A six-year-old article that became very handy today. While I have been using Daniel Slaughter’s Gmail POP3 script (which is excellent and I highly recommend it), that script is not yet compatible with Inbox by Google - and I’d rather have Inbox in a tab on my desktop than Gmail.

I upgraded (deliberately) my home PC to Windows 10 from Windows 7 and Windows 10 completely and utterly broke my sound. Windows forums are filled with people with the same problem, and all Microsoft could do was point you to the same help file in the website that everyone tried that didn’t help. For some reason, my…

I’m a big Tweetbot fan, but Twitter’s ever-changing feature and API restrictions means that Tweetbot is often upwards of a year behind feature-wise, and often never gets the full feature set of the native Twitter app. Heck, Tweetbot doesn’t even have proper access to Twitter cards, meaning my Twitter timeline (which…

Twitter could make this a lot easier on themselves if they’d implement cross-application timeline syncing - so that when I open Twitter on my iPhone, it automatically syncs my timeline to where I last left off from the Twitter homepage, or TweetDeck or Twitter for iPad or whatever.

ACK! $6.99 in Canada!?
