I kind of agree with this rule though lol. Comments can get pretty tedious to get through when posts are super repetitive. If they didn’t have rules like these, the forums would be (more) painful to read and readership would decline. Remember MR is ultimately a business that needs income, which comes from ads and membership, which depend on readership, so they need to make sure readership stays as high as possible.
However, I do think these rules can sometimes be too extreme or enforced too extremely. Sometimes a single word or overused meme can have worthwhile or new meaning depending on the context. Also users should be able to express simple enthusiasm for a product, ie. “Take my money”. Twenty posts saying the same thing would be insufferable, but one or two should be allowed and other users can simply use a like reaction.
my watch charges wirelessly via power bank case, and the case charges via usb-c. ive never used the stock watch charger.
check my sig.
why? the cr2032 lasts a year(ish)?
I don't normally keep them around because I had no use for them, I changed mine back in Feb of this year because the alert came up on my phone.
There is a strong demand for an AirTag that features a more powerful signal for detecting stolen equipment and allows for easier speaker removal. We must eliminate any opportunity for thieves to discover these devices! While AirTags may not have been designed specifically for theft recovery, millions are using them for that crucial purpose!
I think you’re missing the point I was trying to make. One unifying MagSafe charger would be better than many.
agree, ive seen some third party... 'things' that have tried to combine them, so at least youre only carrying/using one?
But youd probably want two! since youd want to be able to use them at the same time...
meh. again with usb-c charging i never even think about magsafe for the watch *shrug* at least the AP4 work with normal magsafe pads!
imagine having 10 and needing to charge them every 60 days... not ideal for a device you really want to have enough juice when you need it
yes! i miss this tile feature!!!
i end up keeping another device at the ready to trigger find my and its annoying. especially when im already holding a device that can communicate with the phone.
Literally same. I’ve put off finding it for so long the battery died. I am too afraid to ask if I can go looking in their yard.
So many junky stalking trackers out there for small $’s. I’m glad Apple have their privacy restrictions policies. They work really well and I wouldn’t get a crappy "stalky tag"
Get every one this year's model, 🎅🏼 then next year you can get them the new version. 😉
Tim Cook has to earn his paycheck somehow. 😆
That was a good feature of Tile. But I don't think I used it a single time after getting an Apple Watch, and haven't missed it since converting everything over to AirTags.
I am 100% behind this
I mean, Tiles have them which makes it all the easier to put them on keychains
The fact that we had to get a separate accessory for doing just that with them compared to Tile and other trackers is mildly infuriating if you ask me
