Anyone had an issue with DND on their Watch.

DND turned off on iPhone as per schedule but not on Watch this morning.

Make sure "Mirror my iPhone" is turned on in Watch app > Settings > General > Focus.

If this is 100% safe why do banks have pop ups asking you to clarify the reason for payment etc?

I always assumed that was an unashamed data grab so they could market products at you based on what you are spending money on.

I keep looking at cases myself.

I was convinced I was happy with my clear ESR case but the Apple cases are really appealing to me.

I bought my usual Spigen Ultra Hybrid (clear, ahem) but the fit isn't as good as usual: it's slightly loose on the sides, so it "clicks" a bit when you pick up the phone which is annoying. Might have to look at an Apple one...

Send us the link for that please. I currently have this sat on my desk. Have to blow it from distance with it being compressed air.

You need a rocket blower.

Sent my phone to Argos by special delivery on Friday, saw they received it at 8:30am yesterday but no updates yet.

I used the address that Royal Mail gives for them when doing post code look up through their website. I also dont think I put the order/reference number on the outside packaging but wrote it on the box inside and put the received letter in there as well.

This is what the Royal Mail site gives:

Isn’t that a gypsy/traveller thing?

Not sure to be honest.

My phone just made that noise to indicate a payment has arrived in my bank account. Traded-in at CPW yesterday, money in my account 22 hours later. I guess I should transfer it to Amex now

So got an email from apple about 2 hours ago, saying my trade in is a success with my 12 pro, so all done now! Will continue to keep up with this thread, and who knows, maybe see some of you next year on here if I decide to upgrade to the 14!

not if, when

I'm determined to stick with a 2-3 year cycle with iPhones now.
No way will I be upgrading to the 14..........maybe......

Man Bag: I just got a Bellroy, 7L was the larger of their (at the time) two slings, and am very happy with it. They know how to charge mind:

Sling Bags & Crossbody Bags | For Work, Travel & Commute

Bellroy’s range of sling bags & crossbody bags keep hands free and pockets light. Keep your essentials close for work, travel & your daily commute.

bellroy.com

That comes *with* the iPhone, doesn't it?

I'll stick with my cheapo import: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00Q80V...colid=SD2MAPBM08MU&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

All these man bags being posted 😂 - what has the world come to.

Just my opinion. Not here to offend anyone.

I know. But in the summer I can get away with a look variously described as "foreign correspondent" or "Man from Del Monte" by pairing it up with a light, pocketless shirt and a brimmed hat. Heaviest thing in there is often the phone though.

so the Argos and Apple trade in is all managed by the same lot... likewise aka brightstar 20:20..

should give people a tad more confidence that is apple are using them then it can't be all bad!

surprising they are not having equivalent pricing between them though!

Don't worry - that's the same address I have on the 48 hour pre-paid envelope they sent me.

Problem with the silicone cases is all the lint they attract… every single time.

Yeah, they are a bit of a pain. Best case I have used was the sandstone oneplus case. Wish there was similar for the iPhone (if there is one,I haven’t found it yet)
Saying that I’ve ordered a couple of silicone cases and one hard plastic (nudient) so will see how I get on with them….all I need is the phone to put in them.

Delivery for my 13 pro 128gb Graphite via Apple is 26th October- 2nd November
Hoping that I get it before then but doubtful given the state of logistics in the country right now!

If you live near an Apple Store you can keep checking the in-store reservation system in the hopes of getting it sooner...

I’ve had the confirmation from Argos that they have inspected my iPhone and will pay me the full £601!

the silicone cases do improve over time, they become 'smoother' from the natural oils (palm sweat? ) and my old 12 pro case was pretty good at keeping lint off
