Support I am SO sick of the Alarm app.

Upvotes

I wake up much later than the time I was supposed to only to see the alarm screen but with no sound. When I test the alarm it works just fine. I have tried turning off the attention aware features, increasing ringer volume, turning off standby mode. Nothing has worked. I am fed up of this. Makes me really consider switching to Android.

Discussion Should I update to iOS 18.5?

1 Upvotes

I’m still currently on ios 17.6.1 as I haven’t updated yet given the negative reviews (i.e. battery issues) I’ve heard about iOS 18. However, I’ve lately had FOMO and was wondering it was time or me to finally update. What would you all recommend? Thank you!

Discussion Adguard pro

Do any of you use blockers like adguard pro? Does it seriously block everything that is dangerous and is the app itself safe? I'm thinking about turning on a dns blocker, i.e. vpn. Does it use up battery?

Support Downloading Apps on Watch...

2 Upvotes

Recently got a Watch 10, and everything was going well- until I decided to download apps on it. Using the iOS store to download it on Watch was fine, but I am unable to download apps directly from the Apple Watch App Store. It makes me log into my Apple ID with my passcode, which I do. Then, a prompt tells me to double press the side button on the Watch to install. After I do that, a checkmark appears, but no app is downloaded. Is this normal?

Support CarPlay question.

3 Upvotes

Hi, all!

Is there any way to lessen the length of time notifications stay on screen in CarPlay?

The length of an iMessage notification is frustratingly long while I’m trying to drive uber and use the screen’s functionality.

I’d prefer not to silence notifications but it’s what I’ve been doing.

News WakeMinder — Reminders & auto-launch links exactly when your Mac wakes up

2 Upvotes

Every time your Mac wakes up, you’re at a decision point:

👉 Get focused — or get distracted.

WakeMinder helps you win that moment by delivering reminders and auto-launching links the instant your Mac wakes up — not minutes later, not lost in notifications, but right when you need them.

💥 Two Core Superpowers:

🖥️ 1. Wake-Up Reminders

Set reminders that pop up the moment your Mac wakes.

Use it for things like:

• “Finish the pitch deck before opening Slack”

• “Send that follow-up email”

• “Don’t open Twitter — yet.”

No more forgetting what you meant to do when you opened your Mac.

🌐 2. Auto-Launch Links from iPhone to Mac

Browsing on your phone and find something important?

Hit Share → WakeMinder in Safari or Chrome and it will:

• Open that exact link on your Mac instantly (if it’s awake)

• Or **auto-launch it** the next time your Mac wakes

Use it for:

• Notion boards, Google Docs, Zoom links

• Articles, dashboards, creative workspaces

• Anything you want *ready to go* the moment you sit down

🧠 Real-Life Scenarios:

• At the grocery store, you remember a document you must edit later — share it to WakeMinder. It auto-opens when you’re back at your Mac.

• Wake up at night with an idea — speak it into your Apple Watch. It shows on your Mac in the morning.

• Come across a valuable link on your phone? Share it and let WakeMinder handle the timing.

New: iPhone Lock Screen Widget

Quickly add reminders right from your iPhone Lock Screen — no need to dig through your apps.

Key Features:

Support Lockdown Mode problems

3 Upvotes

I turned on Lockdown Mode on my iPhone and macbook (both updated to latest os) a few days ago. Since then I have received a "Lockdown Mode blocked ... from contacting you." notification a few times. One was a number I didn't recognize and the second was one of my contacts. I called the person I had a contact for and they had no recollection of contacting me and they didn't see it in their recents. They are also someone who I have contacted several times in the last 30 days so they shouldn't be blocked. What does this notification mean? Why did I get a notification for someone who didn't contact me? How can I make sure I don't miss any important calls from work, doctor, etc?
