How to enable WiFi Calling on your iPhone

Posted on May 25, 2023

Have you ever desperately needed to make a voice call with your iPhone, but the cellular signal at your location was so poor that the call wouldn’t go through?

Most of us have at one time or another, and it’s frustrating to say the least.

The next time that happens, check to see if there’s a WiFi network available that you can (safely) access.

If so, you might be able to enable WiFi Calling on your iPhone and place your call over the Internet.  [Read more…]

Q&A: How do I disable ‘Dictation’ on my iPhone?

Posted on April 17, 2023

Question from Ryanna:  I’m always accidentally hitting the “Microphone” button when I’m typing on my iPhone and I hate it.

I never use Dictation anyway so I’d like to disable it. How do I do that?  [Read more…]

Q&A: Can I let someone call me when my iPhone is on ‘Do Not Disturb’?

Posted on April 2, 2023

Question from Janelle:  I know there probably isn’t a way to do what I’m asking, but I thought I’d ask anyway.

I have to keep my phone silenced when I’m at work, but my dad is very seriously ill and I need to be able to get messages from my mom in case something happens with him.

I really need for my phone to ring if she calls so I can leave the room and call her back. Is there any way that I can let my mom call me even when I have my iPhone set to “Do Not Disturb”?

Q&A: How can I make thumb typing easier on my iPad?

Posted on March 8, 2023

Question from Pauline:  I have a question for you Rick.

I’ve been using a 7 inch Android tablet for my Facebooking but the battery recently went bad in it.

Instead of buying another Android tablet I decided to try an iPad. I ended up buying a 10.9 inch model which is a bit larger than what I was used to.

I didn’t know what to expect because I’d never owned anything from Apple before, but I found out that I really love it.

I’m having one problem though. I could hold the 7 inch tablet by its sides and type with my thumbs, but I can’t do that with the larger iPad because the keys are spread out too far.

Do you know if there’s a way to make it easier to type on my new iPad using my thumbs? Maybe by using an app, perhaps?  [Read more…]

Q&A: How can I view saved passwords on my iPhone?

Posted on February 2, 2023

Question from Ronnie:  I have a question about Safari on my iPhone.

I have an account with an online service (I’d rather not say what it is) that I’ve been accessing for over a year with my iPhone.

I just bought a new laptop and I want to start accessing that website on it instead of my iPhone.

The problem is I can’t remember the password because Safari has been automatically filling it in for me.

Is there any way I can view that stored password in Safari so I can use it to log into the account on my laptop? [Read more…]
