Hi Chermeen, It would probably be a lot more fun if it wasn't -42 with the windchill today. I just tried a bit, but this is really for covering targeted areas and we'll try a couple of them first where I thought I may have lost it. To cover a three quarter mile long driveway with a dinner plate size metal detector is pretty tedious and you really have to be right over top of the item for it to buzz, it's not like you hold it 2 feet up in the air and it does 2 or 3 feet in either direction.

Walking around with a metal detector actually sounds like it would be quite fun! And also, if anyone knows how I can solve my problem with 3d touch and the messages app, I'd love suggestions ;) LOL Shermeen On 12/24/15, Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected]> wrote: > By the time I came home and tried find my iPhone it already showed as > offline and any calls I made to my number went straight to voice mail. > I guess an iPhone lying in the snow at almost 30 below Celsius shuts > down pretty quick, as soon as the battery freezes up and given how > thin the thing is and at those temperatures that probably doesn't take > long.
