The built in calculator app on the iPhone can do all sorts of conversions.
Long-press the icon at bottom left and you get a pop-up menu. Slide the toggle on and the default $ to € currency converter appears. There’s a bazillion other currencies available too. But you can also choose among 15 other unit conversions, like weights, energy, force, pressure.

Survey: Q1 How big is your phone? What else would you carry in a belt bag? I made some that fit my iPhone 11 hard case (6.5”x5” x2”), but know other people carry bigger phones and more stuff...
Q2 These fit 32-43” waist (adjustable). In future bags what waist size range should I make? Maybe a 28” and up? (I’ll look at garment sizes too. I want to fit the widest range possible.) PS. The red sparkle bag has a glow in the dark stripe! Thanks infinitely in advance!

Has anyone had their iPhone screen replaced at an Apple Store? Do they replace the screen or do they give you a new phone? (I’d prefer the former)
More seriously, of the devices I brought with me to Cupertino this week, the chances of installing a new operating system on each today are:
- MacBook: 95%. (I can install to a separate partition and test with a separate account without risking my main setup.)
- Apple Vision Pro: 99%. (I use this nearly every day, but don't rely on it.)
- iPhone: 0% (If there's one device I need to work reliably this week, this is that device.)
- Apple Watch: 50%? (I brought t…

If you're trying to do the trick that was shared for #nintendoswitch2 where you can use a USB HDMI capture dongle HDMI to USB-C cable to use your iPhone as a camera - don't use the True Visage app mentioned in the video
That will rely on screen sharing mirroring and you'll potentially get an aspect ratio mismatch and see the dynamic island floating in your view
I'd personally suggest the free "Blackmagic Camera" app instead, and then go to:
Settings->Monitor->HDMI Out
Switch from Mirror Display to Video Feed and it will cleanly output your camera. Works for a Lightning to HDMI out adapter for older phones, too
Then just tap on Lense and FPS and pick which combo you like.
Also, if you're not getting any output signal make sure the capture dongle you're using supports 1080p out - not sure the Switch 2 supports anything higher as camera input
Who is realistically going to carry around a second digital camera with them? Of course cameras are better than smartphones, but the best camera is the one you have with you at the moment.
I've taken thousands of photos that I never would have thanks to my iphone.

"Simultaneously to Steve Jobs’s introduction of the iPhone in January 2007, Google started publishing a series of blog posts called “Testing on the Toilet”. On May 15th, 2008, this series featured a famous issue: “TotT: Using Dependancy Injection to Avoid Singletons.” The writing was literally on the wall of toilets worldwide: Singletons are bad™®©. Sadly, the much more exciting idea of dependency injection contained in the article got lost in the minds of most readers."

I just called AI bullshit on Marriott's web support. It's infuriating when a company can't be bothered to actually read what you send them, and responds with long, detailed instructions that contain made-up facts (I don't even have an iPhone), and that are unresponsive to a fully reproducible issue I repeatedly described in detail.
I don't think even the laziest, sloppiest human would produce a response like they just sent me.
And this is like the 10th message…
