@hacks4pancakes dummy phone so that when the photo gets taken no important and way more embarrassing message shows up in the pic...... same as turning off notifications during presentations or better: disabling connectivity (wireless or wired) altogether....

@hacks4pancakes wtf?! I have settings in the dock on every iPhone since you could edit the dock 🙈

barryparr,

@hacks4pancakes Her only Home Screen news apps are the New York Post and the Babylon Bee, FFS?

@hacks4pancakes

I have settings in the dock cuz apple doesnt have a nice way to get to it...

WTH

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn I’m sorry but very bad vibes, why do you need to change your Wi-Fi settings so much 😅

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes

I am definitely not gonna understand this much ...

but when apple stopped the behavior from the control screen to turn off BT and WiFi - so now you have to do it in the settings screen - I just want to move to settings quick.

I dunno... I really didnt see this as being bad.

I for sure need some more insight...

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn it’s right here

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn swipe your finger top right to bottom left

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes

The WiFi and BT icons under the Airplane and Cellular icon do not turn off BT and WiFi.

It just disconnects.

I need to see if I am misunderstanding a shortcut swipe - swiping at all from top right down brings up the control center in your photo.

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn sure, just not sure why you would ever realistically need to turn them off all the way (airplane mode on control center does shut off everything)

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn if you want to turn them off all the way you can just hold press on control center too. Never a need for the setting icon for it.

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes

wowza I am feeling really dense..

I must have something set up differently and I need to check.

hitting Airplane mode - leaves BT and WiFi on and connected.

hitting BT and WiFi icons in control center leave WiFi and BT on, just not connected to current WiFi.

Holding them down brings up WiFi and BT connections - but I still dont see a way to turn it off...

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn hold press on Wi-Fi. Hold press on Wi-Fi again. I am on a plane and I can’t take a video, I’m really sorry. By default, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth shut off in airplane mode but you can change that.

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes

I greatly appreciate your back and forth with me - so I will go back through settings and see - I am not getting that behavior so I'll have to see where I am totally missing this.

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes I must not have that setup then. I’ll have to find it.

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes

Nothing I see in control center turns it off.

And if I want to avoid anything with any and WiFi being active - I generally want it Off and not disconnected.

And after what I experienced with people spamming the BT stuff - I’ve pretty much wanted to turn things off.

video/mp4

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn I promise promise promise the second long press on control center brings you to the shutoff option. It’s impossible to reconfigure that.

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn it’s in your video at the bottom of the menu. Takes you directly to the off setting

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes

got it - knew I was being dense a bit...

so - a swipe and a few strokes more than just having access to settings in the bottom dock.

i get it.

hacks4pancakes,

@dustinfinn sure, but only if there’s nothing more important to have in your dock, like messages, calls, signal, email…

dustinfinn,

@hacks4pancakes yep. Understood for sure.

Phone / messages / mail / settings

Maybe I move settings now :)

Join the cool folks :) (lol - kidding)

Safe travels !

@hacks4pancakes and either really like notification badges or doesn’t know how to remove them.
Also, bad at responding to messages.

jrossnicoll,

@hacks4pancakes Noting to myself to never let anyone see my home screen

@hacks4pancakes Mail in the dock, Gmail on the desktop. I'm not well-versed in iOS, but can't Mail do Gmail?

@hacks4pancakes Is the pic actually new or maybe from the time before she came to twitter?

hacks4pancakes,

hacks4pancakes,

@ditol it’s new

markener,

@hacks4pancakes funny enough settings is the only thing i have in the dock

YamakaziTaiga,

@hacks4pancakes so...🤔 tinder?

Objectively, the CEO of a company doesn’t need to use the product too often, that’s not their role? Using the product takes up so much time too. But not having it at all, that’s special.

As for the settings app, one use case would be to toggle advertising her number when she places a regular call.

hacks4pancakes,

@GuillaumeRossolini sure but she uses Facebook and Instagram

GuillaumeRossolini,

@hacks4pancakes I can understand wanting to keep an eye on the competition, but yeah the general picture looks weird

sidsun,

@hacks4pancakes facebook and instagram are on there

Fear,

@hacks4pancakes >she has signal installed

@hacks4pancakes i understand where she's coming from. Once Tweetbot was killed off, that was a dead space for me too.

fabrice,

@hacks4pancakes the dock is prime real estate. Both passively leaving Safari AND actively adding Settings there makes me wonder what this smartphone regular usage looks like.
My SO is an avid smartphone web browser user… her Safari icon is tucked away in a folder on her second screen.
I’ll put my money on Linda uses Safari to access Xitter web interface.

@hacks4pancakes grandma accidentally put the settings there, and now can't figure out how to move them off.

Her home screen looks like literally every app she's installed, in order 😆
