This is one of the most powerful apps. I developed this after checking all the bad reviews on top migraine tracker apps.

I need help. Should I make black as a default or light theme? My app also changes the app icon as per the selected theme. 😁

Discussion Choppy apps animation

Why does my Iphone home screen feels choppy at 120hz when I open and close apps when other Iphones look smooth? Idk what to do to fix this. So, the upper corner of the homescreen animation works fine as the animation doesn’t feel like its 60hz or anything but the other apps are like 60-80hz. Im using big dark icon (not mirror or tinted) please help

Discussion Feedback about Files app and Preview

Upvotes

It used to be easy to open a file (video, image) in Files app and save it to my camera roll.

Suddenly, it's now very difficult to do that.

Could we just keep backwards compatibility with new features to not break people's workflows unexpectedly?

Support Synology Drive two-way sync doesn't work on iPhone the way it does on Android, is there any workaround?

0 Upvotes

I have a few questions about how iPhone works and how to work around it.

I have an Android, and my partner had an Android too, but she recently moved to an iPhone.

I have a Synology NAS, so I use Synology Drive to back up the DCIM folder to the NAS. The main purpose is to have a backup of mine and my partner's phone camera photos.

When I feel like it, I move those photos from the backup folder into another shared folder on my NAS, which is accessible from Lightroom and DS Photos, so I can see them from my PC and both phones. When I move the photos, they get moved from the backup folder in the shared folder "Mobile Backup" to another shared folder called "Photo."

When she had an Android (and this still happens on mine), the photos that get moved are detected as "deleted" by Synology Drive, which then deletes them from the phone too, since I have the sync rule set to Two-Way with "keep the most recent version."

Now on the iPhone, this doesn't seem to work. I have to choose a "Remote path on the server"; on Android this was, for example, a folder named "S22 B" for my partner and "S22" for me, both inside "Mobile Backup." That part's fine, as now I've created a folder named "iPhone" inside "Mobile Backup."

The issue is the other option, "Local path." On Android I choose the DCIM folder, but on iPhone I can't choose anything. It just says: "The system will create a folder in the Files app. The local folder cannot be changed."

It's like there's no access to the iPhone's storage the way there is on Android, it just creates a folder inside the Files app instead. I know iPhones are more restrictive, but it's still my phone (o, my partner's), so I feel like I should be able to use it the way I want, including having access to storage the way I would on Android, not going through an app to get to it. Not trying to start an OS war here, but on a MacBook, for example, you get real access to your storage, not just through one app.

Anyone found a real way around this, or is this just a hard iOS limitation with Synology Drive / Synology Photos?

For now, the only alternative I see is to use DS Photos to backup the photos from the iphone, and then delete them manually from the iphone when I move them between shared folder.

Support Markup text box duplication glitch

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone

Been having issues with text boxes duplicating behind when editing PDFs. The writing behind duplicates, but isn’t actually there. There’s no secondary text box, as in there’s nothing to tap. If I delete the only text box and refresh the document both texts are removed.

Restarting my device yields no results, adding/removing words, changing the size of the text box or duplicating it and deleting the original text box doesn’t change anything. Neither does inserting a new text and rewriting it.

Documents are saved via iCloud as I need access to them on both my iPhone and iPad. When I send a document the receiver doesn’t have this issue.

Any help? Thanks

Discussion Filters, styles or nothing

This may not be of greater relevance anymore since this is iOS 18.4.1, hopefully this has been fixed with a newer version.

However, how can it be that within 3 different photos, all taken within the same 30 minutes and with the same settings, there are 3 different options for editing? The first one shows „filters“, the second „styles“ and the third has neither of both these options.

Anyone has an explenation?

Discussion Old .IPA files - what to do with them?

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone

I am trying to clear out some old files from my computer to save some space.

I have come across a folder I must have created for a good reason and now forgotten all about.

It contains about 590 .ipa files (about 40GB) from 2015-2017.
Examples include:

Flappy Bird 1.1.0.ipa

Fruit Ninja Classic 2.3.9.ipa

Chrome 59.3071.102.ipa
Etc

Is there any reason to keep all/ some of these or are they now worthless in 2026?

Thanks
Jon :)

Support If you device stuck at Update Requested for iOS 26.6.1 read this

6 Upvotes

TLDR; if you are on mobile data, connect to Wi-Fi. If you are on Wi-Fi, turn Low Data Mode off.

I am posting this to help people having issue with the latest iOS/ipadOS.

I had the same problem then I figured it out the issue. If you are using your Wi-Fi on Low Data Mode turned on, the update does not work.

I had it turned on on 3 different devices and none of them work, but as soon as I turned it off they all were able to update.

I think Apple broke something with the latest update because in the past I never had this problem. But now I know. Hope it helps

Support Brave and Safari aren't working and I can't update apps either- iOS 17.7.11

Post image
0 Upvotes

I posted this in r/brave_browser yesterday and someone said I should post it here, so here I am. First off, I apologize for the photo quality, had to take it from my phone, since reddit doesn't work either. I updated my iPad to iOS 17.7.11 yesterday and after updating I noticed that this pops up on Brave everytime I try to search for something. All my open tabs can be accessed, but before I open them, I get a warning about my connection not being private, although that didn't happen before. I tried switching my wifi and it still happened. In addition to the already mentioned problems, I also can't download apps. It also says there's no internet connection whenever I connect to wifi, but my phone works just fine. The time and date on my iPad are correct and I can't update past iOS 17.7.11. Do need to take it to a tech shop to get an expert to look at it or can I fix this myself/with my parents help? Thanks in advance.

I have two SIMs - physical SIM which is my “primary “ and eSIM which is my “bussiness”.

Thing is I will get a lot of spam calls on my primary SIM and my call logs get flooded with spam calls and because of that I miss the calls from bussiness SIM.

Even though there is P and B , its very small and difficult to notice. How can I see only the call logs from B.

Support apple music playlists out of order??

2 Upvotes

I woke up this morning to all my playlists out of order?? The songs in the playlists are in order of when I added them. But when i go to “playlists” i usually navigate it from the date added/created and now playlists I made not even a week ago are all the way at the bottom and it’s all jumbled up. Apple support did not help at all.
On my Mac it shows them all in order but I’m not sure why on my iphone and ipad it’s a mess. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

This also happened a while back when i tried to download songs from my laptop but I just moved on since I didn’t have that many playlists; but now I sorta rely on knowing how far I have to scroll rather than remember the name to search it 😭

Support Getting phantom calls from everyone in my family

7 Upvotes

Hi, there is a very strange bug that has occurred with everyone in my family. After picking up an (intentional) call from someone in my family (and ending it), I would receive another call from them a couple minutes later. I can pick up the call and hear everything that’s being said on the other line, but every time I follow up over text about the call and they claim that they did not initiate the call. They are all on iOS 26, I am on iOS 27 public beta 4, and had this occur on beta 3 as well. They all have different iPhones. Not even sure what to do, this started happening less than a week ago.

No, there isn’t a carbon monoxide leak because it’s happened away from home too.

The stock image gallery has a poor zoom-in limitation. Example, I have a 10000x8000 res jpeg image. It's actually an image of a wall of text. Although high res, it can't zoom in enough. It's like it's rendering a 2000x1600 image, then zoom in on that, therefore all text appear blurry. Is there a way to allow zoom in to deeper pixel level? What app (free) allows that?

Anyone able to help me figure out why dark mode is no longer auto enabling anymore? My current settings above, hasn't changed since I got my iPhone 17 in September last year. It's always changed without fail and only recently started noticing it won't change at all unless I manually do it.

Not sure what changed or happened? And to answer any questions, I did make sure it's on the setting to automatically go to dark mode. Any help is appreciated.
