Oh, and then thereās this:
Forbes contributor Gordon Kelly also cited a report by security firm Wandera that highlights how bad the battery life problem was. After monitoring a subset of 50,000 moderate to heavy iPhone and iPad users, it appears that the battery life for iOS 11 users saw a decay at twice as fast as those running iOS 10.

@gurth said in iOS 11 Thread:
Older iPods used to have a setting that allowed them to show up as a mass storage device, but that got removed with, IIRC, the first iPod touch (and, I suppose, iPhone).
I had one, and it did. You would reset it while holding Pause and Enter, and it converted itself into a regular storage drive.
I must have missed that trick, but the point is that earlier iPods simply had a toggle in the prefs menu that would turn mass storage mode on or off. (With it enabled you could also get to the music, but those files had names of eight random characters.)

All the metadata was preserved though, so you could recover the song details by importing into a music player of your choice and letting it organise the files for you

For that, I used Floola. Somewhat glitchy at times, but it was portable, non-confusing, and (usually) worked better overall than iTunes...

This is a fun one. Bonus points for not fixing yet it in 3 point releases.
TBH, I miss iOS 10. iOS came with quite a few nice enhancements (mostly design), but at the cost of decreased stability and battery life.
And 3 point releases didnāt manage to fix it, some even made some matters worse!
Not a good Fall for Apple.

iOS 11 Is Killing Me
Okay, look. Iām not the first person to say this, and I certainly wonāt be the last. But iOS 11 is bad. The new operating system has turned my phone into a bug-infested carcass of its former self, and the frustration of trying to use it sometimes makes me want to die, too.

On the other hand FaceID is supposed to be a real UX revolution:
iPhone X Review Roundup
First impressions of the iPhone X, and comments on Matthew Panzarinoās and Nicole Nguyenās reviews.

Hope you finally learn to read with comprehension. UX REVOLUTION, not TECHNOLOGICAL REVOLUTION, as in it works so well and is so well integrated, that it actually permanently changes the way people interact with their phone. The same as TouchID was, although Apple didnāt invent fingerprint scanning.
Sheeshā¦

This actually changes a bit. The point is āpermanently changesā: Face ID integrates with Apple Pay, App Store, can be used to identify oneself with other apps (banking, etc).
Plus, it seems that hello IRIS isnāt that reliable after all:
I've had a 950 for almost 3 weeks now. I just started using the feature. So far It's a little hit and miss but overall had been a positive experience. I'll keep trying it out and get back to you. For now that's what I got.
I just got the 950 on a great deal and decided to try it out. I have been having a ton of trouble with the iris scanner. I have fairly small eyes (don't know if that would matter) and also wear glasses. At first I tried to train it without glasses, which worked okay-ish. I can't get it to work with glasses at all, no matter how much I try to improve the recognition.
I wear glasses and the success rate is about 95% I'd say, even during the day outside. If I were you I'd just try it. If you don't like it then don't use it.

@bb36e, on the other hand though:
Face ID should also work through most sunglasses that pass infrared light, although some donāt. And you can definitely make it fail if you put on disguises, but Iād rather have it fail than let someone else through.
In my early tests, Face ID worked well indoors: sitting at my desk, standing in our video studio, and waiting to get coffee. You have to look at it head-on, though: if itās sitting on your desk you have to pick up the phone and look at it, which is a little annoying if youāre used to just putting your finger on the Touch ID sensor to check a notification.
You also canāt be too casual about it: I had a lot of problems pulling the iPhone X out of my pocket and having it fail to unlock until Apple clarified that Face ID works best at a distance of 25 to 50 centimeters away from your face, or about 10 to 20 inches. Thatās closer than I usually hold my phone when I pull it out of my pocket to check something, which means I had to actively think about holding the iPhone X closer to my face than every other phone Iāve ever used. I also apparently hold the phone pretty close to my face when I wake up in the morning ā closer than the recommended 10-inch minimum ā and donāt have my glasses on, so I had to adjust that muscle memory as well. āYouāre holding it wrongā is a joke until it isnāt, and you can definitely hold the iPhone X wrong.

Convenient two-factor authentication with Microsoft Passport and Windows Hello
If your app handles user data, then secure authentication should be one of your primary concerns. Identity management is a hard thing to do well, involving encryption, reset mechanisms, and other security measures. Two-factor authentication is more common nowadays, but it increases complexity for...
Note the date.

@kt_ said in iOS 11 Thread:
@kt_ enough about that, this thread is supposed to document iOS 11 fails. So hereās another one:
Annotating PDFs in iBooks works well, once you get used to living with the bug that the button that brings up the annotations functions disappears if you switch to a different app while you have a PDF open in iBooks. The only solution appears to be closing the PDF, quitting iBooks, re-opening it, and then re-opening the PDF. That it doesnāt remember which pen, colour, font, text size, etc. you had selected if you close the PDF is a minor annoyance relative to the whole button disappearing.
Iāve also had the toolbars disappear on me while it was in annotation mode once. All I could do at that point was draw lines on the PDF, since I had one of the pen tools active, but I couldn't get out of annotation mode, nor close the document.

@timebandit I agree that apple saying that they've invented stuff from the ground up for the first time ever is skeezy, but wasn't this easily easy to bypass if you had an image of the person (I may be thinking of Samsung's early phones, though)?

Ha ha!
The parents were shocked. Ten-year-old Ammar thought it was hilarious. "It was funny at first," Malik told WIRED in a phone call a few days later. "But it wasn't really funny afterward. My wife and I text all the time and there might be something we donāt want him to see. Now my wife has to delete her texts when there's something she doesnāt want Ammar to look at."
But yeah, you donāt need a photo. You just need to either obtain a 3D scan of a personās face and create a 3D print of it, or you need to be a child of the owner.
To be honest, Iād say Face ID sounds much more secure. :]
