 A feature of the Mail and Outlook apps that I use regularly is the 'Send Later' feature - to set up an email to send at a future time.
I have so many times wished that this same feature was available in the Messages app, for those occasions when I don't want to disturb someone by sending a message at an unsuitable time - but still need to be sure that I remember to send the message. iOS/iPadOS 18 has finally brought the 'Send Later' feature to the Messages app.

 Some close friends of ours are travelling at the moment and sending our Messenger group daily updates of their adventures. We love travelling with them vicariously via their photos and narratives. One of our group just today mentioned an app that she heard at work, and suggested it for our travelling friends. So I took a look at this app today - and immediately downloaded it to my iPhone for our next travel adventure.  As you may already have heard, the arrival date for the new iPhone 16 range was announced on Sept 10.
Pre-orders for the new iPhones open on Friday 13th September AEST (from 10pm), with the new range available in Apple stores from Friday 20th September. Also announced last Tuesday was the arrival date for iOS/iPadOS 18 - which will be early morning on Tuesday September 17th (AEST). The big question I have been asking myself is whether I should upgrade my current iPhone to one of the iPhone 16 range. Maybe you are wondering the same.  I was scanning through Facebook the other day and came across an article that grabbed my attention. So I tapped it.
The image above shows the scary message that then popped up on my iPhone, advising me that had viruses on my iPhone and I needed to call a number immediately to rectify the damage that had already been done. Here's what I had to do. 27/8/2024 0 Comments A fantastic free budgeting app During last week, I mentioned in an email that many of you received that I had found a really good budgeting app, one that can make such a different in managing finances and tracking expenditure from multiple bank accounts and credit/debit cards. (Here is that email if you missed it.)
I promised to provide a short video that gives you a sneak peek at this app. 
iOS/iPadOS 18 (and macOS 15 Sequoia) are arriving soon, probably around 13th September.
Apple has announced that its next big event is scheduled for early morning September 10th (AU time). They will announce new products (including iPhone 16 range) and the release date for these new versions of the operating systems. I have been taking a look at a preview version of iOS/iPad 18, and one of the biggest changes is to the Photos app. It is sure to confuse and frustrate many iPhone and iPad users.  If you have had to select a photo (or multiple photos) from somewhere in your Photos library - for example when you are in Mail, Safari or some other app - you have probably found that Apple no longer makes it possible to see and search for your photos by Album.
An example of where I recently found this incredibly frustrating was when creating a photo book of my daughters wedding.  I'm sure all Australian readers are familiar with the myGov website, for accessing the ATO, Medicare, Centrelink and more.
If you use a mobile device, it is well worth downloading the myGov app. I find it much easier to use than the website! It is certainly much easier to use the app to check your myGov messages - when you get an email notifying you to check your myGov inbox. And you can add your medicare card and any other concession cards to the wallet. On my own iPhone, the myGov app unlocks with my Face ID - so I don't need to enter a password or passcode. And there is a new security feature that I have just enabled for my own myGov account. 
 I was recently contacted by a client whose emails are now hosted but The Messaging Company. She has been finding that her emails are either not reaching the intended recipient or are going into the recipient's Junk mailbox.
If you too are having issues with your emails and have a .tpg.com.au, netspace.net.au, iinet.com.au, westnet.net.au, ozemail.com.au, etc. email address - ie. any other variation of email addresses that used be hosted by TPG/iiNet - it is important that your email app is set up with the correct SMTP settings. |
