Re: Differences in iPhone 14 models

[Joshua Hendrickson]

I would never get an iPhone without getting apple care for it.  I can
get replacement batteries for free since I have apple care.  It is
great.  My iPhone 13 pro max has 97% battery health and I've had my
phone since last July.

Re: Hope Someone Can Help

[Shai]

Hello,
How about having the person create a contact with commas to insert
pauses for the menu options?
I have done this and it works very well.
These days I think that you may be hard-pressed to locate an
auto-dialer for the iPhone unless it was some sort of app as all
signals are digital and the iPhone would need to have an analog
connection or a dial tone of some sort.
I have read about pairing an anlog phone with an iPhone but I don't
think that this is what you are attempting to do.

Budget Alternative for Airtag Keyring?

[Fazil M.]

Hi, Group.

I went to AppleStore to purchase Airtags.

She showed me the airtag on the demo that was in a key-ring. She took it out
and told me that the key-ring is not the part of the airtag and I have to
purchase the key-ring separately. The Key-ring was more expensive then
airtag.

Can I get an economic alternative for this key-ring?

If yes, what should my search term be on Amazon?

Thanks!

Hey, I like that sound too. It works well for me. I hope that they keep it for 
a long while. I know this is going to go way back, but before I got my iPhone, 
and I was using my Sanyo devices, and even my QUALCOMM had i I even liked 
having the tones go off whenever I was in a bad spot for service. That was even 
very helpful. I wish iPhones had something like that.

RE: About GPS systems and their accuracy

[Alan Lemly]

Sieghard,

 

As always, thanks for an excellent post with well-documented source material 
regarding GPS.

 

Alan Lemly

 

From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Sieghard 
Weitzel
Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2023 12:50 AM
To: viphone@googlegroups.com
Subject: About GPS systems and their accuracy

 

For those who didn't read the thread about the "Differences in iPhone 14 
models" here again what I posted regarding GPS accuracy. I wrote this in reply 
to a statement Kelly made about having heard that the iPhone 15 Pro may have 1 
inch GPS accuracy. In particular he said "it may also have dual channel 
satellite navigation, giving location data as accurate as an inch compared to 
the 20 feet single channel offers"

One inch accuracy is very difficult to achieve especially in cities between 
tall buildings and while a measurement over a long period of time may result in 
extremely high accuracy, most consumer devices cannot do this in most 
applications or without the euse of additional "augmentation systems 

 ", here the definition of what that is:

A GPS augmentation is any system that aids GPS by providing accuracy, 
integrity, availability, or any other improvement to positioning, navigation, 
and timing that is not inherently part of GPS itself.

Another article I read says this "Yes, there are GPS systems that can measure 
locations with accuracy up to 1 inch. These systems are known as Real-Time 
Kinematic (RTK) GPS systems. They

use a fixed base station and a mobile receiver to calculate highly accurate 
positions."

And here a page from the US government website about GPS accuracy 
 , one highlight here is 
this:

It will depend on the quality of your equipment, how many satellites are 
visible and processing in your equipment and the quality of the GPS signals 
(direct, reflection, interference). As measured by the Air Force that runs the 
GPS program, the error across the entire constellation of satellites was 2.1 
feet, 95% of the time on 20 April 2021.

Also, I hear sometimes people say the US government deliverately makes the GPS 
system less accurate; this is not true as of over 20 years ago, specifically in 
2000 then President Bill Clinton put a stop to the so-called "selective 
availabbility" which was used throughout the 90's globally to make GPS signals 
for civilian use less accurate. On the GPS website it says " The United States 
has no intent to ever use Selective Availability again.".

 

What Kelly referred to as "dual channel satellite navigation is technically 
called "dual frequency" or "multi band" and many of the newer Garmin GPS's 
including some of Garmin's watches already have this.

Here an excerpt from an explanation from the Garmin website:

What is Dual Frequency/Multi-Band GPS?

Dual-frequency or "Multi-Band" systems use multiple frequency bands and allow 
for more consistent tracklogs and improved positioning when using the device in 
challenging environments.

This means the receiver tracks more than one radio signal from each satellite 
on different frequencies, which can reduce errors caused by environmental 
interference.

 

What Advantages Do Multi-Band Devices Have Over Other Models?

• More consistent tracklogs and improved positioning when using the device in 
challenging environments (e.g. around tall buildings in urban canyons as well 
as tree cover)

• Can achieve accuracy within about +/- 2 meters or 6 feet under ideal 
conditions versus the +/- 3 meters or 10 feet accuracy of other models

• Detect (and reject) reflected satellite signals better than a single 
frequency receiver which improves accuracy

• Better equipped to account for and correct errors that can be introduced by

I am sure the iPhone 15 Pro will undoubtedly be a fantastic device, but it 
seems Apple is differenciating the Pro models more and more from the regular 
models and then we have rumours of an iPhone 15 Ultra although I also read that 
this may possibly what Apple will call the iPhone 15 Pro Max and they will give 
it even more features or make it tougher than the regular iPhone 15 Pro.

I guess we have to wait and see, but don't hold your breath that any iPhone in 
the near future will give you 1 inch GPS accuracy especially not in the places 
where most people live like cities with tall buildings and many sources of 
potential interference. For now the next big reveal will be iOS 17 on Monday, 
June 5 which Apple announced today is when WWDC will start. Then we'll wait 
another 3 or so months and probably on Tuesday, Sept

I would rather have the big battery with a few ports. I have been
trying to find something with more than one usb C.

I assume by powerbank  you refer to an expernal battery. As Kelly pointed
out, you can get something small which will recharge an iPhone fully once 
or
maybe twice if  you only charge when you are down to 40%. As to the type 
it

really makes little difference as all external batteries have one or more
USB plug and  you can plug in your regular Lightning cable and use it on 
any
of your iPhones or you can plug in your Apple Watch charging cable with 
the

round magnetic charger for the watch on the other end.
The only difference is that larger capacity batteries usually have more 
than

1 plug and can charge 2 ore more devices at the same time.
Also, if your Apple Watch charger has a USB-C end which means a small plug
almost like a Lightning plug, then you may want to look for a power bank
which has at least one USB-C plug-in. You can get iPhone Lightning 
charging

cables which also have Usb-C on the other end so ifi you found a battery
with just a single USB-C plug in then that would be something you have to
get.
I have a small Anker battery which is sort of like what Kelly described
although I think it is 6000 Mah and definitely a bit fatter, but it's also
older so maybe skinner versions are out there now.
I also have a rather expensive Hyper Juice battery which I think is 26,000
Mah and it has 4 USB-C plug-ins and it can even charge my Lenovo laptop. 
But
it's not what you would most likely want to carry around on a daily bases, 
I

often use it at home to charge various headsets because for something like
that  you can literally use it for weeks or months without having to
recharge it. I also pack it when my wife and I go to the Philippines where 
I
might be in places where sometimes the power is out or unreliable and 
where

it's nice to have a battery which can recharge both of our phones, Apple
Watches and headsets multiple times.
Anker is a good brand and they have everything from small 3000 Mah 
batteries

to the large 20,000 or even higher batteries, they are easily available on
Amazon and you get a quality item for a reasonable price.

Hello List,

 

Does anyone know where I can find an auto dialer? I have a friend who is
having trouble using his iPhone to make menu selections using voiceover.
Several years ago, he found a small auto dialer that looks like a transister
radio that you hold up to the iPhone and it would generate the touch tones

I'd appreciate any information.

Wireless charging is just not fast enough yet. I don't think portless
phones are quite there yet.
