@nave It’s only used in Safari. Apps and other browsers reveal your real IP address.

@Scooter411 Only works in Standby mode (when your phone is charging and is upright on its side). I wish it was a more complete implementation. @apple_enthusiast

@Venicon The iPad calculator is an obvious one that I missed. I’ll add that to my list for next time.

And you aren’t the only one who’s mentioned Health app improvements. The medication feature needs to be more visible and easier to log than just the timed notification that it sends.

Edit: Some of my replies are not showing up on Lemmy. Maybe I need to tag @apple_enthusiast

@anolemmi Hmm. This reply didn’t get mirrored to Lemmy.

@acosmichippo More customization in that area would be great.

The closest you can get to that today is to set Watch faces based on the Focus mode you are using. But that isn’t going to be linked to the low-power setting.

@anolemmi It’s supposed to be automatic as to which volume level is adjusted. For example, if you adjust the volume while Siri is speaking, it adjusts the Siri volume (only). But I find it tricky to quickly grab the phone and adjust it before Siri stops talking.

It’s understandable that users are confused that invisible volume levels are being adjusted; and either the one they wanted was not adjusted or others were adjusted unintentionally.

Edit: tag @apple_enthusiast
