The content filter on the on-device AI model is of course very strict. Can't even say damn without triggering it

T-Mobile sent tracking, its an hour short of 24 hours and no movement. Anyone else have this happen & how long before it actually moved?

Mine is doing what the map always does. Bounces between 4 blocks and a mile away.

Right now it's a mile away. Usually gets here between 2-4 if it's the normal guy, if not could be the next day.

I live in a gated community, it was INSIDE, moving towards me so I figured, it's coming!!!. Looked again & it was back towards the gates, drove over there, nowhere in site, now, it's a mile away again.

It's like my freaking roomba.

Lovely. Just finished mine setup, posting from it!

Took about 5 mins for initial first setup copy from old phone, then about 2.5 hours to transfer everything from old phone.

only thing I haven't been able to sync my Watch, it doesn't pair. about that. I wonder what the issue is.

I tried regular stuff and checked on the webs and didn't find anything conclusive.

I hope you can get it resolved fast.

This was def misleading. I thought the phone has 48mp for Ultra-Wide, 1x, and 2x lenses. But this is not (always) the case. Kinda annoyed by this. But oh well.

That being said, took some test snaps today and it has been outstanding.

I put watch Beta OS 26 on and see no difference.

Been raining all weekend. Pool motor didn't sound right but I didn't want to get poured on if it was OK.

Hard to believe it can zoom so I can see the needle.

17 pro max - unedited night mode snap - out the car window at a red light. It was either 4x or I think it was 8x zoom! Hold for 2 seconds. Impressive!

Another thing I really like is the brightness of the screen. Makes it possible to save battery life by keeping it lower.

Watching House of Cards reminded me I still have an iPhone 4.

Oddly it can't resolve certain pages, it didn't like google. This is on top of an iPhone 15ProMax
