RE: Fwd: [IDevices] {Disarmed} FW: If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here's How to Speed It Up
You're absolutely correct. You could, of course, leave background refresh on
globally but turn it off for anything you don't need. As an example, I don't
follow stocks so I've disabled the Stocks app from updating in the
background.

Subject: Re: Fwd: [IDevices] {Disarmed} FW: If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow
Here's How to Speed It Up
The only problem with suggestion number 2, that of turning off the
background refresh is that you won't be able to use two apps for navigation.
For example, I use Navigon and Blind Square. Turning off the background
refresh means' I'll only be able to rely on one app, and not both.
Is my assessment correct on this, or am I missing something that has been
discussed on the list?

Family photostream
Dear listers I was about to move my wife’s phone over to a different Apple ID for iCloud so that we could Facetime each other but I realise that doing that would mean that we would no longer share photostream which would be a real shame. Is there any way of having different iCloud accounts but sharing one photostream? I know there are shared photostreams but that involves manually moving photos into it that you want to share doesn’t it?

Re: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection
Hi have you considered the life proof case? It goes completely around the phone and is waterproof.

Re: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection
Ron, When I obtained my first iPhone last year, I went back to the Apple store where I bought it and checked out their cases. The Apple store had several leather cases that came across as sophisticated and functional. They would fit inside a suit jacket perfectly without leaving a bulge or being so heavy the case makes the jacket hang awkwardly as the heavy duty cases do. I’m so glad you found a case that offers the protection from a drop, shows off the 5s elegance and gives the protection you need. I too bought a private insurance plan. Rob at Today in iOS has said repeatedly that Apple Care does not include water damage. Now that I am insured until 2016, I have thought a little bit about the issue. As a blind person, I have become mindful about the proper care and use of the tools I use for my independence. When I was without a computer for a few days when I spilled a glass of water on the keyboard, I learned a lesson to be careful and to set up systems for handling liquids around electronic devices. I avoid taking the iPhone into a bathroom or kitchen. I also put it into a sealed Ziploc bag if I am going to be around a swimming pool, beach, or in a small boat. I learned the last idea from the guys who carry their firearm everywhere down here in the states. The problem is with wet hands or small splashes that can really do damage rather than having the item dunked in water.

I think that the app might due in a pinch if your hanging a picture or that kind of thing. For anything really serious, it won't cut it. I don't care what model iPhone you use it on and there are better other leveling apps. You have to try them 1 by 1 to see which works best for your needs. If you really need it to be level, there are several on the market which will beep a steady tone when it's level that work much better. --- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

I am getting my 5S tomorrow (HaHaHa, beat you) and I certainly appreciated Cara posting this because at least one has a chance to specifically test for these issues. I am a woodworker and I do build things and do my own renovations/modifications to my home to a large degree, but it's not like I'd ever use my iPhone as my authorative level, it's much to short to be really precise. I have a dedicated audio level and even that is only 12 inches and there is a reason why framers use 4 foot long levels. I can see how this might affect hard-core gamers which I am not and I suspect it will be an academic problem for me, certainly not enough to scare me off like Pablo who cancelled his order, but if I wasn't in a big hurry and my iPhone wasn't due to arrive tomorrow I might consider that. Anyhow, I have 1 year of warranty and I bought Apple Care so I am quite convinced that if I could replicate this issue and it was quite serious I could get a replacement in a couple of month when Apple has made the appropriate modifications. On a general note, I think it must be a real nightmare to discover all of these bugs and get them fixed. There are so many functions and features some of which are very specific. I know it's easy to say How can Apple release a phone which has such obvious bugs or How can they release iOS 7 when it has such obvious bugs.

Spooky activity in multitasking that puts the Oo in OoTunes
Dear listers This is probably an intentional feature of the way that iOS7 does multitasking but it was spooky nonetheless. I was streaming a radio station on OoTunes and went into the taskswitcher and cleared it out. I used to do this with TuneInRadio as I felt sure it was buffering the stream over 3G even when closed. I then happened to press the play remote control on the earbuds and OoTunes started streaming again even though it had been banished from the taskswitcher. Spooky eh? For info I wasn’t listening to halloween radio or anything like that – if I had been perhaps I might have really got the creeps.

apple forcing updates yet again
Hi, everyone. A coworker has an IPhone 5 running IOS 6. She does not want to update right now. Yesterday someone was helping her with her phone, and the phone asked if she wanted to update.

We tried re-setting the phone by holding down the lock and home button for 10 seconds and just turning the phone off and back on again. There still seemed to be no way to get out of the update prompt. Going into the app switcher still didn't work. Anyone have any thoughts? I'm disappointed to see this with no option to cancel.

RE: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection
Hi Wren, I don't agree with the person who said the Lifeproof case is a nice case. It is not bad, but I bought one for my 4S a couple of years ago and while it does offer good protection (as does the Otterbox Defender) it find both the case and the belt clip is too bulky for my taste and daily use. I also find the audio is slightly distorted when the phone is properly in my case with the headphone jack cover screwed in and it's a pain in the neck to unscrew this and make sure I don't lose it every time I decide I want to quickly plug in my headset. I guess it would be OK if somebody used a Bluetooth headset/earpiece with it as their preferred way to use a headset, but I just happen to like the apple Earpods better than any Bluetooth headset I have seen and tried so far. I usually don't bother screwing in the plug unless I really need that complete waterproofness and using their waterproof headset connector is also not a good solution because if you use it you can only use a headset. Lastly, my Lifeproof case has not been used all that much, but the little door that you close and snap into place after you made sure the case is properly sealed all the way around is now starting to come off and at this point my case would be no longer waterproof. I just noticed this last week when I collected all my 4S accessories as I am getting ready to sell my unlocked 4S 64 Gb am I have to call Lifeproof today and see if they would consider this a warranty. In conclusion I would say that if you really felt you needed a waterproof case then the Lifeproof case is OK, but I would certainly check out other options before I bought one for my 5S.

Interesting bug in Bard App
Greetings: The bug I am about to describe only occurs when reading a Bard book that was converted from cassette to digital format. Here's what happens. You are reading along, and you suddenly hear a phrase such as end of side x where X is any side number. Suddenly, the book jumps back by at least one navigation unit. How far the book jumps back depends upon the mark up present in the book. In some books, this can be a chapter, while in others whose mark up is not as thorough, you can jump to the beginning of a part or story you are reading. I realize that nothing can be done about this until the Government opens again, I wonder, however, if anyone else has encountered this one.

Re: Interesting bug in Bard App
I've had a book that was once a cassette book say end of side 3. To continue, please turn the cassette over. I got a chuckle out of that but the book continued on. Here's the weird part though. I hit the rewind button and held it down and heard 5 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes and stopped there. /the book continued on reading but where I heard the announcement end of side three, it didn't play it. It just read as if that part never even happened. I have no clue why or how that happened and to be honest about it, I don't care either it was just one of those weird things you come across once in a wile. I'm not trying to start a debate only sharing a weird event. Do what you will with it and believe it or not as you see fit. --- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

I am getting my 5S tomorrow (HaHaHa, beat you) and I certainly appreciated Cara posting this because at least one has a chance to specifically test for these issues. I am a woodworker and I do build things and do my own renovations/modifications to my home to a large degree, but it's not like I'd ever use my iPhone as my authorative level, it's much to short to be really precise. I have a dedicated audio level and even that is only 12 inches and there is a reason why framers use 4 foot long levels. I can see how this might affect hard-core gamers which I am not and I suspect it will be an academic problem for me, certainly not enough to scare me off like Pablo who cancelled his order, but if I wasn't in a big hurry and my iPhone wasn't due to arrive tomorrow I might consider that. Anyhow, I have 1 year of warranty and I bought Apple Care so I am quite convinced that if I could replicate this issue and it was quite serious I could get a replacement in a couple of month when Apple has made the appropriate modifications. On a general note, I think it must be a real nightmare to discover all of these bugs and get them fixed. There are so many functions and features some of which are very specific. I know it's easy to say How can Apple release a phone which has such obvious bugs or How can they release iOS 7 when it has such obvious bugs. But it's always easier to play Monday morning Quarterback and to draw on what tens of millions users report in the first few weeks of using a new iiOS or a new device.

I am getting my 5S tomorrow (HaHaHa, beat you) and I certainly appreciated Cara posting this because at least one has a chance to specifically test for these issues. I am a woodworker and I do build things and do my own renovations/modifications to my home to a large degree, but it's not like I'd ever use my iPhone as my authorative level, it's much to short to be really precise. I have a dedicated audio level and even that is only 12 inches and there is a reason why framers use 4 foot long levels. I can see how this might affect hard-core gamers which I am not and I suspect it will be an academic problem for me, certainly not enough to scare me off like Pablo who cancelled his order, but if I wasn't in a big hurry and my iPhone wasn't due to arrive tomorrow I might consider that. Anyhow, I have 1 year of warranty and I bought Apple Care so I am quite convinced that if I could replicate this issue and it was quite serious I could get a replacement in a couple of month when Apple has made the appropriate modifications. On a general note, I think it must be a real nightmare to discover all of these bugs and get them fixed. There are so many functions and features some of which are very specific. I know it's easy to say How can Apple release a phone which has such obvious bugs or How can they release iOS 7 when it has such obvious bugs. But it's always easier to play Monday morning Quarterback and to draw on what tens of millions users report in the first few weeks of using a new iiOS or a new device.

Re: apple forcing updates yet again
It's not really the issue, but how much space does this image really take up? I've heard that the download size varries from 750M to 1.2G for Verizon users. 3G is only needed during the install process. How do people know it's really taking up 3G of their space? I wonder if some uncompressing is going on after the image is downloaded, although I'd expect this just to be done during the install process itself. It would be pretty unfortunate for those 8G and 16G iPhone users who don't want to move up to IOS 7 to lose even more space if the image is untangled in preparation for the install. On 10/15/2013 10:40 AM, Amy Billman wrote: I will say though that once the update is at least downloaded (not installed,) it will give you no choice but to update it in full because that download's just sitting there eating three gb of space. I'm sure eventually there will be no choice but to update, but there's no way for it to happen accidentally or at the very least, without the terms and conditions being agreed to. Although... If you're running the latest iTunes and want to back up your phone, will it only allow you to update to iOS7? I'm running it because there's no reason not to, so I'm not sure how that would work... I know itunes recognizes that your software is out of date, but unsure if you can proceed with doing a backup without upgrading to the latest. Sadly though, regardless of how it happened or what the cause was, contacting disability services wil likely be an exercise in extreme futility, since once you've upgraded, you're running it whether you want to or not; from what Apple has told me anyway... *shrug* Nothing disability department can do one way or the other since it's not an accessibility or disability related issue.

Tubeacco app is pulled, was: Can't find a YouTube app that does what I needed to do.
Hi Ann, I did a Google search for Tubeacco and one result I found from a site called App Shopper stated that as of I think it was July of 2012 this app was pulled from the app store. I did find a link for the app on the developer's website (see below): http://www.rubbledev.com/tubeacco Interestingly enough if you just go to www.RubbleDev.com there seems to be no link to it. There is also no Contact Us link, but when I put in www.RubbleDev.com/contact a message was displayed that they were updating the site and a Contact Us form would be back up soon. In the meantime I guess if you use Facebook or Twitter you could try and contact them that way, but if the app was pulled over a year ago and has not come back I assume the developer gave up on it.

Re: [IDevices] {Disarmed} FW: If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here's How to Speed It Up
What option are you talking about? I don't see enough information in your message, and you didn't include the message you're responding to. As a guess, look in Settings - General - Background App refresh. this is just one setting that's been talked about lately to improve performance and battery consumption. You can turn off app refresh in the background globally or app by app. Links to several articles on how to configure IOS 7 have been posted lately with places to look in settings to configure different things. If you walk through some of these, you may find the setting you're looking for, or you could ask for it with a bit more detail here on list.

Hearing an announce about the end of a side doesn't bother me one bit. However, for example, while reading a collection of three Stephen King novels, when hearing such a side announcement, the novel I was reading started over. This has happened in three different books for me. It's not the out of date side announcements that are troubling, it's losing my place in the book that I mind a bit.

In some books, this can be a chapter, while in others whose mark up is not as thorough, you can jump to the beginning of a part or story you are reading. I realize that nothing can be done about this until the Government opens again, I wonder, however, if anyone else has encountered this one.

Hi Chris, The reason I asked my follow up question, which you responded to, was because I didn't specifically see that particular feature when I toggled the App Refresh on and off, so I thought it might lie somewhere else within the settings, or possibly within each app's settings. Any chance you can elaborate for me? Thanks.

Re: [IDevices] {Disarmed} FW: If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here's How to Speed It Up
When I go into Settings - General - Backup App Refresh, I see a button at the top that says Background app refresh. In my case, I have this turned on. Down below, I see a list of specific apps, and I can toggle this feature on or off for each app. For example, I have Facebook off but I have Google Maps on. This way you can incrementally improve performance and battery life by specifying those apps that you want to be refreshed in the background and those you don't, instead of the more draconian measure of just turning off background app refreshing altogether.

Re: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection
Hi, I'd like to say that I purchased a black case of this type for my silver iPhone 5s and do like it very much. The built-in screen protector seems to be better than those offered by Otter box, although admittedly I haven't seen the iPhone 5 version of the Defender Otterbox cases either. I wasn't impressed with their iPhone 4 version and so went away from Otterbox. I loved the 3G/3GS versions, but feel they dropped the ball with the 4. In any case, this case from Ballistic is working out nicely. I don't have access to the finger print reader of the home button but that hasn't been an issue yet for me. Knowing me and the way I am, I'll most likely be getting another case to try out. This is what I do after all, and so will be happy to try out something which protects the phone as well and still offers access to the finger print scanner. Cheers. -- Raul A. Gallegos If you're having a bad day, just remember in 1976 Ronald Wayne sold his 10% stake in Apple for $2,300.

This was shortly after the consumer electronics show. At that time, many of the vendors who sold rugged and durable electronic equipment to the military and construction industry were just beginning to offer iPhone cases for the consumer market. Their products were going to be introduced this summer. My case is better than the Otterbox because it sandwiches the iPhone tightly between two very hard pieces of plastic, exposing the screen with a screen protector. This encases the iPhone completely and visually the device likely won’t be recognized as an iPhone. This sort of defeats the purpose of a golden iPhone though. I understand it is elegant and sparkling. On the other hand a toddler could pick up my iPhone in a Hard core case and give it a forceful toss without damaging it. It is a little bulky, but I have the protection of something virtually indestructible. Otterbox cases clamp the iPhone into place, which can wiggle and scratch the glass of the screen. Also the sides of the iPhone are much more exposed than on the Ballistic iPhone case, which encases the iPhone completely between a form fitting upper and bottom layer. Consider the hard core case but also the new cases from the rugged device companies. Kelly On 10/14/13, Lois Butterfield lbutterfield...@gmail.com wrote: I got the commuter and didn't like it. It was a loose enough fit that the phone would slide closer to the top, which made it hard to open the portals in the bottom to get to things. I ended up with an S TPU case that is clear.

Sadly though, regardless of how it happened or what the cause was, contacting disability services wil likely be an exercise in extreme futility, since once you've upgraded, you're running it whether you want to or not; from what Apple has told me anyway... *shrug* Nothing disability department can do one way or the other since it's not an accessibility or disability related issue.

Hello, I have a mophi case for my i phone 5. I have the air and it charges up to 100 percent everytime. If you are only getting 51 percent, then I suggest you let Mophi know.

I am getting my 5S tomorrow (HaHaHa, beat you) and I certainly appreciated Cara posting this because at least one has a chance to specifically test for these issues. I am a woodworker and I do build things and do my own renovations/modifications to my home to a large degree, but it's not like I'd ever use my iPhone as my authorative level, it's much to short to be really precise. I have a dedicated audio level and even that is only 12 inches and there is a reason why framers use 4 foot long levels. I can see how this might affect hard-core gamers which I am not and I suspect it will be an academic problem for me, certainly not enough to scare me off like Pablo who cancelled his order, but if I wasn't in a big hurry and my iPhone wasn't due to arrive tomorrow I might consider that. Anyhow, I have 1 year of warranty and I bought Apple Care so I am quite convinced that if I could replicate this issue and it was quite serious I could get a replacement in a couple of month when Apple has made the appropriate modifications. On a general note, I think it must be a real nightmare to discover all of these bugs and get them fixed. There are so many functions and features some of which are very specific. I know it's easy to say How can Apple release a phone which has such obvious bugs or How can they release iOS 7 when it has such obvious bugs. But it's always easier to play Monday morning Quarterback and to draw on what tens of millions users report in the first few weeks of using a new iiOS or a new device.

Re: Fwd: [IDevices] {Disarmed} FW: If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up

RE: Interesting bug in Bard App
I also have encountered this twice. I was able to read through the spot as follows: The book read the end of track message and then jumped back a chapter. I navigated forward till I came to the chapter after the one I had been reading and used rewind. I rewound to before the end of track announcement and, this time, in both cases, the book did not skip backward.

Here's what happens. You are reading along, and you suddenly hear a phrase such as end of side x where X is any side number. Suddenly, the book jumps back by at least one navigation unit. How far the book jumps back depends upon the mark up present in the book. In some books, this can be a chapter, while in others whose mark up is not as thorough, you can jump to the beginning of a part or story you are reading. I realize that nothing can be done about this until the Government opens again, I wonder, however, if anyone else has encountered this one.

Re: The iPhone 5S Motion Sensors Are Totally Screwed Up - gizmodo.com
Well, I was curious about my 5s, and tried it on several flat surfaces in my home. It always gave a reading of minus 1 degree. Which didn’t make me any smarter. grin Crystal From: John Diakogeorgiou Sent: Monday, October 14, 2013 9:37 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: The iPhone 5S Motion Sensors Are Totally Screwed Up - gizmodo.com Just out of curiousity I tried using the level with my wife's 5 and my 5s which was received the Tuesday after they went on sale. Their is a difference of about 3 degrees between the two phones with hers showing 0 and mine -3 which is about a/4 inch off the table. I tried it on a couple of different surfaces in case one wasn't flat and got the same results. I did not try the compass part because I don't think the difference is as important. Although I hope Apple some how fixes this I don't think it will have too much effect since I don't use the phone for woodworking.

I agree with you, everyone has at least one year of warranty (more if you buy Apple Care Plus) so I don't think I'll sweat it too much at this point especially considering that the majority of phones seem to exhibit this behaviour.

I am getting my 5S tomorrow (HaHaHa, beat you) and I certainly appreciated Cara posting this because at least one has a chance to specifically test for these issues. I am a woodworker and I do build things and do my own renovations/modifications to my home to a large degree, but it's not like I'd ever use my iPhone as my authorative level, it's much to short to be really precise. I have a dedicated audio level and even that is only 12 inches and there is a reason why framers use 4 foot long levels. I can see how this might affect hard-core gamers which I am not and I suspect it will be an academic problem for me, certainly not enough to scare me off like Pablo who cancelled his order, but if I wasn't in a big hurry and my iPhone wasn't due to arrive tomorrow I might consider that. Anyhow, I have 1 year of warranty and I bought Apple Care so I am quite convinced that if I could replicate this issue and it was quite serious I could get a replacement in a couple of month when Apple has made the appropriate modifications. On a general note, I think it must be a real nightmare to discover all of these bugs and get them fixed. There are so many functions and features some of which are very specific. I know it's easy to say How can Apple release a phone which has such obvious bugs or How can they release iOS 7 when it has such obvious bugs. But it's always easier to play Monday morning Quarterback and to draw on what tens of millions users report in the first few weeks of using a new iiOS or a new device.

Re: Interesting bug in Bard App
There are those books that have the announcement this book was originally recorded for cassette playback. And more often than not, on different players, you will indeed hear that site three or side for. It's pretty amusing. And kind of sentimental I am about it.

Here's what happens. You are reading along, and you suddenly hear a phrase such as end of side x where X is any side number. Suddenly, the book jumps back by at least one navigation unit. How far the book jumps back depends upon the mark up present in the book. In some books, this can be a chapter, while in others whose mark up is not as thorough, you can jump to the beginning of a part or story you are reading. I realize that nothing can be done about this until the Government opens again, I wonder, however, if anyone else has encountered this one.

Re: Mofi case with iPhone 5S?

Re: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection
I admit they did drop the ball with the 4, the rubber bumper surrounding the case got flimsy to quick and warn fast. But they really improved it with the 5, and even better with the 5s. Especially with access to the finger print reader, it is sit away from the hole so it doesn't get pushed easily. And the bumper casing is much much tougher. Also, the head phone jack cover is in line with the actual plug, so there is no adjusting for it. I heard the life proof case doesn't allow access to the finger print reader. Haven't seen one, so can't confirm this. But I also don't want to pay 80 bucks for a case, JMO that is a bit high for my liking.

The built-in screen protector seems to be better than those offered by Otter box, although admittedly I haven't seen the iPhone 5 version of the Defender Otterbox cases either. I wasn't impressed with their iPhone 4 version and so went away from Otterbox. I loved the 3G/3GS versions, but feel they dropped the ball with the 4. In any case, this case from Ballistic is working out nicely. I don't have access to the finger print reader of the home button but that hasn't been an issue yet for me.

This was shortly after the consumer electronics show. At that time, many of the vendors who sold rugged and durable electronic equipment to the military and construction industry were just beginning to offer iPhone cases for the consumer market. Their products were going to be introduced this summer. My case is better than the Otterbox because it sandwiches the iPhone tightly between two very hard pieces of plastic, exposing the screen with a screen protector. This encases the iPhone completely and visually the device likely won’t be recognized as an iPhone. This sort of defeats the purpose of a golden iPhone though. I understand it is elegant and sparkling. On the other hand a toddler could pick up my iPhone in a Hard core case and give it a forceful toss without damaging it. It is a little bulky, but I have the protection of something virtually indestructible. Otterbox cases clamp the iPhone into place, which can wiggle and scratch the glass of the screen. Also the sides of the iPhone are much more exposed than on the Ballistic iPhone case, which encases the iPhone completely between a form fitting upper and bottom layer. Consider the hard core case but also the new cases from the rugged device companies. Kelly On 10/14/13, Lois Butterfield lbutterfield...@gmail.com wrote: I got the commuter and didn't like it.

RE: List recorder not deleting lists.
I am having the same issue. I suspect that this is a bug. List Recorder hasn't been updated in some time, but here's hoping they'll push out an update for iOS 7 users.

Hello folks, I have had list recorder for some time now. I along with many others, have upgraded to ios 7. Now I am unable to delete a list which is either full or empty from the home screen. Any suggestions would be helpful. I seem to be able to get to the point where I can select the list I want to get rid of, but then the screen seems to freeze. Thanks in advance.

Strange Dong noise in maps tracking with headings iOS 7
Hi all, I am currently discussing with apple accessibility an issue I reported and they cannot clearly verify it or don't seem to get my description. SO, I am curious if any of you has seen this and approached them with this. When I turn on tracking with headings my iPhone 5 with iOS 7.02 gives off a series of dongs kind of like when you try to flick past the last element on the screen. FOr me they repeat at constant intervals when stationary and I think also when I am walking but can't bet on this. Time is about 4 sec. This is regardless wether I am navigating a route or not. They appear to think that, if phone is stationary, this sound repeats more and more oftenn and suppose it is to remind you that you are using GPS and draining your battery. THis does not make sense to me and I personally think this dong constantly sounding off is either a bug with the way my phone works or in iOS 7.\My husband's phone is giving off sae regular repeating sounds when stationary. Haven't tried moving around with it. Will do so soon. Any thoughts, Ioana Sent from my iPhon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection
Hi, I concur the outer silicone covering is much improved in the otterbox defender for the 5s and the accommodation for the fingerprint reader doesn’t seem to have caused any degradation in the built in screen protector in my opinion. I think this time out they did a great job in its design. Robin From: Kliphton --- Sent: Tuesday, October 15, 2013 9:09 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: cases for 5s which offer excellent protection I admit they did drop the ball with the 4, the rubber bumper surrounding the case got flimsy to quick and warn fast. But they really improved it with the 5, and even better with the 5s. Especially with access to the finger print reader, it is sit away from the hole so it doesn't get pushed easily. And the bumper casing is much much tougher. Also, the head phone jack cover is in line with the actual plug, so there is no adjusting for it. I heard the life proof case doesn't allow access to the finger print reader. Haven't seen one, so can't confirm this. But I also don't want to pay 80 bucks for a case, JMO that is a bit high for my liking.

The built-in screen protector seems to be better than those offered by Otter box, although admittedly I haven't seen the iPhone 5 version of the Defender Otterbox cases either. I wasn't impressed with their iPhone 4 version and so went away from Otterbox. I loved the 3G/3GS versions, but feel they dropped the ball with the 4. In any case, this case from Ballistic is working out nicely. I don't have access to the finger print reader of the home button but that hasn't been an issue yet for me. Knowing me and the way I am, I'll most likely be getting another case to try out. This is what I do after all, and so will be happy to try out something which protects the phone as well and still offers access to the finger print scanner. Cheers. -- Raul A.

This was shortly after the consumer electronics show. At that time, many of the vendors who sold rugged and durable electronic equipment to the military and construction industry were just beginning to offer iPhone cases for the consumer market. Their products were going to be introduced this summer. My case is better than the Otterbox because it sandwiches the iPhone tightly between two very hard pieces of plastic, exposing the screen with a screen protector. This encases the iPhone completely and visually the device likely won’t be recognized as an iPhone. This sort of defeats the purpose of a golden iPhone though. I understand it is elegant and sparkling. On the other hand a toddler could pick up my iPhone in a Hard core case and give it a forceful toss without damaging it. It is a little bulky, but I have the protection of something virtually indestructible. Otterbox cases clamp the iPhone into place, which can wiggle and scratch the glass of the screen. Also the sides of the iPhone are much more exposed than on the Ballistic iPhone case, which encases the iPhone completely between a form fitting upper and bottom layer. Consider the hard core case but also the new cases from the rugged device companies. Kelly On 10/14/13, Lois Butterfield lbutterfield...@gmail.com wrote: I got the commuter and didn't like it. It was a loose enough fit that the phone would slide closer to the top, which made it hard to open the portals in the bottom to get to things. I ended up with an S TPU case that is clear. If I want more protection, I put the phone with case on inside a wallet or other slide-in case that I can clip to what I'm wearing. It also fits in most phone pockets in purses. I have the commuter to fall back on should I ever want that protection. This set-up works well for me, but I am very careful with my phone. It doesn't get dropped.
