    Wow... awesome job!! I learned a lot!Here is. question for you. My number one feature request would be to have "folders" to group various types of contacts into appropriate "folder" . Example, I have 24 tenants at one of my buildings. Would be great to click a folder and just see those tenants. Another folder might be my web design clients. Etc,,, Any way to do this? ;-)

    Very interesting and great fun. Just one thing - on my plan at least, I get charged extra for doing anything fancy with the messages so I just do straight texts (which is a shame)

    • @macmost
      @macmost  2 роки тому +2

      For the most part the "fancy" stuff is for iMessages (Apple to Apple) and iMessages is an Internet service, not SMS. So not only shouldn't you get charged extra, but your carrier doesn't even know you are sending messages.

  • @blindadvocate
    @blindadvocate 2 роки тому

    Hi I have only subscribed to your channel recently and enjoy your tips and tricks but I would like to point out you could be more inclusive to those of us who are blind. Or vision impaired, according the the WHO (world health organisation) there are over 30 million people world wide who are blind and over 300 million people worl wide who have a moderate to severe vision impairment so it makes great sense to try and include us. If you go into settings then accessability and turn voice over on as this is what people who are blind or vision impaired use to makke all apple devices accessible, when you show something on screen and do not verbalise what you are doing to showing we have no idea of what is going on so verbalise or turn voice over on would be of. Great help, many thanks for your time on. This matter and keep your video’s. coming Jeff

    I send Happy Birthday messages to people all the time using either the balloons or the confetti screen effect, and invariably I hear "how did you do that?" I taught my nephew that trick and he showed it to all of his friends as if it was his discovery. One lady said I "hacked her iPhone" because I did that. Hilarious.

    • @macmost

      As issue with the phone number? Can he receive other texts (not iMessage, but SMS)? Maybe he has SMS turned off? Check with your carrier too as SMS may be disabled there.
