Heard from where? From who?

Edit: it amuses me that OP deleted their comment saying they dunno where they heard it, they just did.

Instead of “Explain,” how about showing us what prompted this demand?

Yup. I have one of them on the iPhone 13 I’m using to type this right now!

It’s more trouble than it’s worth when designing a case.

As someone else said, as long as the case has a raised lip around the camera unit, that’s really all that’s needed in general.

Have you tried a) updating to iOS 16.3 and b) actually rebooting the phone?

Yup.

LTE is 4G.

Oh look, this is purely a troll post.

If there’s thousands, link a couple 14-specific posts instead of just rawr hot garbage rawr.

Posts with “Yo the 14 is STRAIGHT HOT GARBAGE!” as the title

expects actual tech discussion

Then…invoke warranty and get a replacement, yo. That isn’t normal.

Gosh, this seems totally legit and not a scam that you’re spamming everywhere you can!

You’re welcome, wish I had better info for you!

Gotcha. Then (as far as I know) there is no way to do this, unless you’re using a Google Voice number to do your texting.

Turn on Wi-Fi calling if your carrier allows it.

It’s off. It won’t ring.

Funny, you told me:

> It’s an iPhone 11. And when I woke up it wasn’t there beside me with no reason whatever

Can’t help lying, even to random strangers on the internet, eh? Starting to see why the phone was taken away now.

If it’s new and you’re getting a great deal, sure. The 11 was a decent phone and I liked the one I had.

If not, then no.

Offline find my was introduced in iOS 15, so you’re good there.

So…you turned your phone off to prevent anyone messing with it (which they couldn’t anyway because passcodes, presumably) and you can’t find it now because it is off.

In theory the 11 is findable when it’s off, but that functionally requires other iOS devices around to ping it.

Ask your family where it is. You’ve tried everything.

Don’t turn it off next time. Just set a good passcode and make sure faceID requires attention to unlock so no one can unlock it with your face while you’re sleeping.

No. Not all models are findable when off, and since you didn’t tell us what kind you have…

Plus if it is powered down, of course it isn’t going to make noises when you try to make it play them. It’s off!

Try this: I’m assuming the phone was taken away because of something you did. Accept the punishment and don’t do more things (like taking back said phone without permission) that might bring more crap upon yourself.

As in, “it was turned off.”

Deactivated. Powered down. Whether manually turned off or the battery is dead, the result is the same.

It’s probably off.

Oh no, a four day old Reddit account has critiqued me. Whatever shall I do.

Just weird! I’ve never had this happen on any previous iPhone, Apple Watch or combo of the two. An alarm goes off on my phone, it rings on both phone and watch every time.

It really sucks this doesn’t happen for everyone, seems like an easily diagnosable issue for Apple to fix!

Of course, I’m old-school and always have a clock radio as a backup anyway. :) But the phone hasn’t failed me yet!
