Dropbox!
actually not sure what you want to do, but you can upload a photo or document from your iphone to dropbox, then share a link to it via email, all within dropbox.
have I mentioned DROPBOX!

If you like making music on your iPad I strongly recommend the Animoog app.

It's fun x2.

I remember now the downside of Dropbox: 2GB capacity on the free version. I should have taken advantage of one of their big promotions.
OTOH, free Box=100MB max file size. Oh well.

I paid the 100/bucks for pro, and have gotten more space simply for suggesting so many people sign up.

is agenda the best calendar app, and tweetbot best for twitter?

I mean Dropbox can send links but I need to be able to keep PDFs of my references and resume on my phone and be able to speedily reply to Craigslist job postings on the fly. How to I shot?

So I got the iPhone 4S today, after having had the 3G for the last few years. What apps are worth getting that I didn't have access to before - any recs?
― she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Tuesday, 25 October 2011 18:35 (fourteen years ago)
dropbox app should be able to handle all that stevie

Like emailing as an actual attachment? It can't, unless I'm missing something. You can only email links to the file.

Guys for real, how the fuck do I send email attachments? I know there's got to be a way with the right apps

- find thing you want to attach- open it- choose the option to send it by email- a new email opens with thing attached to it
Going the other way round (i.e. starting an email before attaching something) is more intuitive but you can't do it that way. Also you can only choose to email something if the app allows it. I know right.

I think Stevie might want to be able to attach a document to a reply to another email?
Stevie, if you're emailing from a link in a CL ad, you could copy the email address and then do what AA said and paste it to the To field.

yeah you cant do it directly--you download the PDF to ibooks (or the picture to photos) and then from there you can email it
― max, Tuesday, 25 October 2011 19:55 (fourteen years ago)
and, no, you can't attach a file from a new email or reply email--it has to be done from w/in another file-management program
― max, Tuesday, 25 October 2011 19:58 (fourteen years ago)
Any good file mgmt apps that allow multiple attachments?

um, being dumb
how do I refresh calendars in agenda on iOS?
― cozen, Tuesday, 25 October 2011 20:20 (fourteen years ago)
The Animoog is incredible. Thanks for that!
― Chuck_Tatum, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 08:44 (fourteen years ago)
cozen - think you might need to shut it down completely (ie in the 'dock' at the bottom) and then re-open. Bug, i think.

why do people like words with friends? i didn't realize it was the same as scrabble so my wife and i downloaded it and were like uhhhh this is just a shittier version of scrabble. we didn't even finish a game. is it just because it's free?
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:22 (fourteen years ago)
i think people like it because it's like scrabble.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:23 (fourteen years ago)
actually like scrabble with more scoring.
asynchronous online multiplayer ie play by mail
― cozen, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:25 (fourteen years ago)
but there's a scrabble app, that actually looks nice and works well and is good! idgi
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:25 (fourteen years ago)
scrabble app doesn't let you play by mail, unless they've updated since I last played
― cozen, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:26 (fourteen years ago)
who cares? i don't really get when that would come in handy? just not for me, i guess ...
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:29 (fourteen years ago)
welcome to 2011

i'm pplains on ww/f. available to play any ilxor whose name isn't wmc or dom passantino.
― pplains, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:34 (fourteen years ago)
so you can play scrabble with a number of friends while idling on the bus?
― cozen, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:42 (fourteen years ago)
yeah?
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:44 (fourteen years ago)
yup
― cozen, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:48 (fourteen years ago)
seems fairly straightforward. not sure what's to get
scrabbles fun. wwf let's you play wherever and whenever you have an internet connection
scrabble app is cool too, not fronting, just doesn't have online MP. never mind asynchronous online MP, which would seem to me the key feature of any iOS board game
― cozen, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:51 (fourteen years ago)
animoog is so rad.
― the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:52 (fourteen years ago)
ya
― cozen, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 18:54 (fourteen years ago)
The scrabble app does have online multiplayer. And does the same Facebook integration that wwf does.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 19:18 (fourteen years ago)
For local play, scrabble on the iPad and using the tile rack app on iPhones is awesome.
The Scrabble app seemed much more sluggish to me than WWF, so I deleted it.
― he carried yellow flowers (DJP), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 19:34 (fourteen years ago)
Scrabble isn't available in some countries either, unlike wwf, n/a
― Trayce, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 19:54 (fourteen years ago)
yes it is not available or "n/a"
― the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 20:02 (fourteen years ago)
i thought with s1ocki gone i would be able to claim the crown as king of dad jokes but now he's back :(
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 20:12 (fourteen years ago)
Based on like a billion of my research both Scrabble and WWF are locked to US English so fuck that.
― Autumn Almanac, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 20:48 (fourteen years ago)
Really? I must be thick, hadn't figured that one out. I thought you could only play against people on the same wifi network?
Official Scrabble is a lot more sluggish than WWF alright. But the scrabble board is way better - I guess the designers figured out the optimum layout.
― Volvo Twilight (p-dog), Wednesday, 26 October 2011 23:02 (fourteen years ago)
There might be different versions available in different regions, owing to Mattel owning the rights in some places and … someone else owning it elsewhere. In the UK there's no online multiplayer option - just wifi "party mode", as p-dog says.
AA - the real issue isn't US v UK English as such (Scrabble dictionaries vary between regions but generally allow both US and UK spellings). It's that the iOS versions (that I can access, at least) are censored, not allowing anything "offensive", even words with double meanings such as "fag". It's really fucking outrageous.
Weirdly, the iPad and iPhone versions seem to have slightly different dictionaries - there's a two-letter word (forget which one) that's allowed in one but not the other.
And "zoos" isn't allowed, for some reason.
― Alba, Wednesday, 26 October 2011 23:52 (fourteen years ago)
Oh yeah, I've heard that you can't do actual words that mean something in the real world yet crap like e.g. 'zuyk' is accepted.
I am really really really sick of web sites that detect I'm using an iphone and give me a full-screen "CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL IPHONE APP!!! FREE!!!" banner for an app that's not available in my country. At least two aspects of that rubbish disgust me to the core.
― Autumn Almanac (Schlafsack), Thursday, 27 October 2011 00:39 (fourteen years ago)
yes. Looking at you IMDB, Rotten Tomatos, etc etc.
― Jeff, Thursday, 27 October 2011 00:46 (fourteen years ago)
Moot filtatron also on sale for .99 iPhone peeps
― ride the dronosaur (jjjusten), Thursday, 27 October 2011 04:21 (fourteen years ago)
Not moot. Moog. Stupid iPhone barghh.
It's a pretty great way to lose your mind late at night in the dark w/the headphones on.
― ride the dronosaur (jjjusten), Thursday, 27 October 2011 04:22 (fourteen years ago)
okay i just bought that and it is amazing
― Clay, Thursday, 27 October 2011 04:39 (fourteen years ago)
The worst are sites that redirect you to an iPhone friendly site without taking you to the link you were going to
― the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Thursday, 27 October 2011 05:06 (fourteen years ago)
Animoog is much better than Filtatron but unfortunately Animoog is iPad only I think.
