iPhone apps S/D

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

Any good file mgmt apps that allow multiple attachments?

um, being dumb

how do I refresh calendars in agenda on iOS?

The Animoog is incredible. Thanks for that!

cozen - think you might need to shut it down completely (ie in the 'dock' at the bottom) and then re-open. Bug, i think.

Tempus >> Agenda >>>>>> Calvetica 4 >>> Calendar

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?

i think people like it because it's like scrabble.

actually like scrabble with more scoring.

asynchronous online multiplayer ie play by mail

but there's a scrabble app, that actually looks nice and works well and is good! idgi

scrabble app doesn't let you play by mail, unless they've updated since I last played

who cares? i don't really get when that would come in handy? just not for me, i guess ...

welcome to 2011

i'm pplains on ww/f. available to play any ilxor whose name isn't wmc or dom passantino.

so you can play scrabble with a number of friends while idling on the bus?

yeah?

yup

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

animoog is so rad.

ya

The scrabble app does have online multiplayer. And does the same Facebook integration that wwf does.

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.

Scrabble isn't available in some countries either, unlike wwf, n/a

yes it is not available or "n/a"

i thought with s1ocki gone i would be able to claim the crown as king of dad jokes but now he's back :(

Based on like a billion of my research both Scrabble and WWF are locked to US English so fuck that.

The scrabble app does have online multiplayer. And does the same Facebook integration that wwf does.

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.

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.

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.

yes. Looking at you IMDB, Rotten Tomatos, etc etc.

Moot filtatron also on sale for .99 iPhone peeps

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.

okay i just bought that and it is amazing

The worst are sites that redirect you to an iPhone friendly site without taking you to the link you were going to

Animoog is much better than Filtatron but unfortunately Animoog is iPad only I think.

why aren't push notifications working for me on tweetbot and is that the best iphone twitter client anyway?

Touch OSC is getting a lot of use in my studio atm, need iPad now. Amaaaaazing.

This post should've gone here instead of the Netflix thread.

The iPhone app has always been streaming only. It's sort of annoying
Not to be able to manage your DVD queue from it, but far more annoying that titles that are available as streaming but added as DVDs do not show up in the streaming queue.

btw guys should i update to iOS 5?

Yes

Yes. Wifi synch is nice.

Yes.

Oh hell yes

does it take forever?

anyone noticed increased power suck post-upgrade or is it all in my head?

it didn't really take long--maybe 30 mins?

nah my battery is def wheezing away faster post upgrade

got to say I'm impressed with the iphone 4S after some scary reports

manages a full day and half's normal use
