Nice.

Are the edges rounded and lay flat on screen?

My DPD guy is approx 3 hrs away; at 7pm. His last delivery is officially 10pm... It's been a long day...

Ouch, so unless he picks up the pace you might not be seeing it till tomorrow either?

Looks a bit quieter than my 11.30am reservation this morning. Good to hear it’s all still running like clockwork though. Hats off to the staff at TC today.

There was a bit of a queue outside the store to get in but it didn't seem too busy if you get what I mean.

Got mine.

Finally, good news from amazon😅

I've found the camera can't seem to get a close picture of the driving licence without it being blurry. Only an issue in Chase though, not the Camera app. Suspect it's just not updated to take it into account yet. Is that the issue you have?

Could well be. I thought it might be a problem with the iPhone 14 camera - pleased to hear it's only just the Chase app. Can't say I'm surprised, though. I rang them to ask to close my account because I couldn't get the app working. I was told the only way I can close my account is through the app . . . . . You couldn't make it up!

R u sure for Vodafone? I've done it seamlessly through the app. Only slight issue was that for the QR code it took a good five minutes to work.

I think that you need to have access to the app to generate the QR code. First login to the app requires 2FA unless you’ve migrated the app over from an old device. Therefore if you have a true disaster and have to clean install the app from the App Store on a new phone without a sim, it might be tricky to get into the app as there would be no way to receive the 2 FA. Luckily, Vodafone allow you to set up multiple phone numbers to receive your security codes in case this happens. However it’s not well publicised.

I was waiting this morning meat in hand for the DPD delivery slot only for them to mess it up. Second time lucky tomorrow hopefully or they're getting it.

Perhaps they saw this through the window and carried on driving!

(sorry about your bad luck today - fingers crossed you get your phone tomorrow!)

I skipped the last 200 (!) pages but... congratulations to everyone who got a new phone today, and spent most of the day playing around with the new settings

Now where is the LK screen protector crew?

 

[Sal09]

My watch detected my new iPhone and paired within a few minutes. My EE eSim eventually transferred over, but couldn’t do it during the quick setup, but it did once I was in. I didn’t delete the eSim from my old phone until it was all sorted, and then it just deactivated it.

Got to say this was the most impressive thing about the day. After last year, I didn’t bother with transfer and restored from back up I did when it arrived. Then halfway though update it asked me if I want to pair watch to this phone. Did it in seconds…well happy. So far transition has been awesome, just 7,000 more songs to download

Also this has been released….best case I have had

He's a good guy and I'm rooting for him. our house is near a pickup point so not surprising we're near the end of his route - if it gets to 10pm and he's not here I may stalk him at the shop

Did anyone hear from Dino this year?
Did he order anything?

Nice little launch day treat.

Not that it’s any consolation but my chase app was approved in less than a minute. Will say though I did notice the blurred image when trying to take the photo of driving licence

Anybody know if Apple release more stock for their stores at 6am again tomorrow?

 

[adamgbiggs]

Nice little launch day treat.

Can’t beat a good Chinese takeaway 👌🏼

Yup they will do. Might not show on the app so you’ll have to go through here.

My 128gb Silver Pro arrived via EE this evening and really like the colour! Have got it in an elderberry silicone case and undecided if I like the case or not!

Had issues with transferring my EE esim via the apple method. In the end had to use the MyEE app and that worked fine!

This forum has once again kept my entertained thoroughly! I’ll be sticking around though as want to see how everyone gets on!

Things you do to please your iPhones.

 

[KrisBreezy91]

I've never done a fresh install - have always restored from iPhone to new iPhone, from the time this became available a few years back.

Never had issues myself....

Me either, was going to try it this time but so many apps etc to go through and login too I’ve put it off again

How do you get your iPhone battery up as a widget?
I can find my Apple Watch battery widget - but not the iPhone one?
