Smartphones & Tablets

I was looking at adding Tom Tom maps to my Google Pixel 6 yesterday, but when I went to the Tom Tom app in the Google Play Store it offered me a free trail, before I purchased.

So, I checked the orders and I purchased TomTom U.S.A. on Apr 13, 2013. The current Tom Tom is TomTom GO Navigation. I am wondering if they just gave up on the old app and started a new one?

I still use my Garmin GPS devices, but the shortcomings become more evident when I travel a bit farther from my home area. I keep my Garmin maps updated, but Google Maps has new streets and businesses much sooner than Garmin does.

With that in mind, I am more likely to run BOTH a Garmin AND a device with Google Maps when traveling away from my typical home area traveling.

Hello,

I’m looking for a mobile application where I could receive a notification/ alert on my phone with a list of POI that I have.

I’m searching but I’m not finding anything

Thanks for all the help

I saw this fake message in a pop-up on my iPhone recently:

"Your phone has been hacked. All your actions on the device are tracked by a hacker. Immediate action is required!" The popup then offers a clickable link to correct the problem.

Apple released iOS 15.5 on Monday, bringing a few smaller changes to iPhones. Most of the updates made in this version are smaller tweaks to apps and other behind-the-scenes updates that lay the groundwork for larger future changes, rather than bigger new features like Universal Control

I still use my Garmin GPS every day, but I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab Active PRO 10.1" tablet that I want to start using in my pickup truck for navigation on Google maps and streaming SiriusXM.

For those here using tablets in the vehicle, what are some suitable mounts? Also, where and how did you mount your tablet?

I just purchased a Kodak Camera to replace my old faithful Fujifilm. I noticed that now with the new camera for every JPG file I now have a THM file to match it on the SD card. My present process is just to sort the files by type and just delete the THM files before transferring from camera to computer. Per information research on the web.

My phone is the iPhone Xs 64. Remember I switched to Apple in 11/18, because I got it for $249 brand new.

I have to say as far as the device itself, seems to have had zero issues. It's been dropped 3X severely enough to crack the screen protector.

My battery was 82% for a long time, but now 77% and it has "service" under settings.

Apple has released iOS 15.3.1 and iPadOS 15.3.1 for download, which it says “provides important security updates for your iPhone and fixes an issue that may cause Braille displays to stop responding.”

You can update your iPhone or iPad by going to Settings > General > Software Update.

You can now download iOS 15.2.1 for iPhone and iPadOS 15.2.1 for iPad....

The release notes for today’s update are below.

iOS 15.2.1 contains bug fixes for your iPhone including:

Messages may not load photos sent using an iCloud Link
Third-party CarPlay apps may not respond to input

I was thinking of switching from Android to iPhone but first, what are the pitfalls of doing that?

On my Android phones, Google apps run gmail, contacts, calendar, and photos and they are synced across tablets, phones, and PCs. Can Google apps run on an iPhone? For navigation, I think Google Maps is superior to the Apple navigation app.
