Re: Anyone else using Apple Pay or an Apple Card?

2024-03-07 Thread Phil Hammerslough 
Oh, that’s really great to hear!  I’ve been using Venmo & PayPal, both pretty 
easy, but this gives another couple of options!  Speaking of options,   I 
recently got a new iPhone and put a sturdy screen protector on it.  Lo & 
behold, it really interfered with the hand options; it took me about three 
weeks it wasn’t me or the phone that was having trouble getting those commands 
to work: it was the screen protector!  Can anyone suggest a thinner screen 
protector?

Best,
Phil
