I started using Marvin and it has been a breeze. It syncs up to a couple of cloud storage and this becomes an easiest way to transfer a large collection. No lags and it is brilliant to read. The only downside is that there is no auto day/night adjustment. You have to manually change it, but it is one click away | |

We are forced to use the 11 or lower till Apple converts the lineup to mini-led screens as they are rumoured to do. But, that’s still a long time to go. I feel your concern about the loss by selling the phone now, I lost 10 thousand rupees when I sold my 11 Pro Max, but still feel it was the way to go considering the health hazards from using it. I would strongly suggest you don’t use the phone at all, why take a chance with something that could affect you long term. If your Wife can tolerate the OLED then take over the 11 from her and give her your phone. If nothing works, sell it off, take the monetary hit, but please don’t use it even for a short while. Unfortunately for me, my Wife also couldn’t use the 11 Pro Max so I had to get rid of it. Cheers | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Question to those using the native Health app on the iPhone: Do you track cycling on it ? How ? The Health app on my iPhone SE tracks steps, but does not recognize cycling automatically. I need to add the distance. Is there any way to make this work to auto-detect distance ? Note: I dont want to install additional apps like Strava etc. |

From what I have seen, the Health app doesn't track cycling data. I have the Fitness app which pulls data from the Apple Watch, and that syncs with Strava as well. |

It works with my Apple Watch fitness app which has an outdoor cycling mode. Doesn’t work on the iPhone with just the health app. Last edited by vb-san : 2nd July 2021 at 08:22. Reason: typo |

| ![]() I bought my 11 pro in mar 2020 and the batter health is already down to 89% whereas a friend of mine who bought his 11 pro a few months earlier than I did, still has his battery health around 98%. Is this more of a calibration issue or is there something wrong with my phone’s battery? |

- The charger you use (fast or regular charger). - The charging cycles. Preferably charge between 25 - 90 %. - Heating of the phone depending on the usage pattern, as in high amount of gaming usually heats up the phone, etc. Overall this battery health thing is more gimmicky than what is actually a measure of the battery life. My 5 month old 12 Pro is now at 99%, and I use the recommended 20W charger. No gaming, only regular calls, WA, Insta & YT. That’s it! | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Guys, any idea why does the touch screen not respond well ? My less than 4 yr old iPhone SE sometimes shows slow/bad response by the touch screen. The screen has been used very gently - feather touch approach, never tapped. And is always in a belt pouch. So I dont think there has been pressure on it any time - during use or when carrying it around. Response recovers if I restart the ph. I have not moved to the latest iOS version yet. |

This happiness was short-lived. I normally avoid checking on the battery health but, I had to see as my 30-36 hour battery life was not happening last few days and when I checked the battery percentage last week. It showed 98% ![]() So my 100% battery life stint lasted exactly 7.5 months as I am currently in my 8-months of ownership of my iPhone 12 Promax. And, this has effected the overall battery life drastically. Now I am unable to squeeze more than 27-28 hours (light usage) to 23-24 hours (heavy usage) in one battery charge of 100% to about 20% ( as mentioned above, I put it back on charge after it hits 20%, sometimes wait until 15%). Currently on the latest OS 14.6. Not sure if the update is the culprit or something else. Anyone else can share their battery health experiences of their iPhone 12 models? | |

| ![]() I am not sure why some members are mentioning that battery health indicator on iPhone is gimmicky. It is actually not. Battery health indicator is directly proportional to the amount of time it can sustain the charge. I have used 3 iPhones till now and have experienced battery health degradation from 100% to 78%. Phone with 78% battery health had fairly lower life during the day. Although reaching to 78% took 4.5 years And to top it up, I sold one of my iPhone on Cashify and while selling, person marked battery as dead and and I got lower valuation than what I would have got when batter showed >80%. It is a usually accepted fact that battery with less than 80% levels needs replacement in iPhones. |
