Personal hotspot is clutch. Power went out in my crib once and I lost internet access as I was day trading. Kicked in my personal hotspot and was able to get back to work

this wont work in the drive-thru

I think like someone mentioned this is more functional for in the phone purchases than real world.. it has the "wow" factor right now but a lot room for improvement 

He ran into the same problem Ive had with my Chase blink card and that is it took a few seconds for it accept the payment

I guess its nice if you ever forget your wallet at home 

It wasn't a problem , the girl hit the wrong button , and she had to do it over

start here

but Im not so sure about restricting certain people from the chat from seeing replies 

That sounds like maybe a JB or 3rd party app feature 

EDIT: 

You may be limited by your carrier not the app itself 

yeah I read that before- it doesn't help me one bit. I knew I shouldn't have udated to iOS8.0.2

So what's up with this instant hot spot? I was told that if I ever enable hot spot on my phone, it would automatically take away my unlimited plan....

i assume thats for people who have hot spot/tethering

good question.. would def ask your carrier about that

You will have to change your plan from unlimited to get tethering or hotspot capabilities on ATT. 


ATT wont even allow wifi calling 

I'm assuming it's something Id have to activate on the phone? Nothing I need, or plan on using. I'm just worried it's something that might be activated automatically?

doubt they would activate it automatically. i think you can check in your settings just to make sure brah. i think you are good.

there is a option on your phone that you can select but it prompts you to call a 1800 number... I assume this is so you dont make a mistake in making changes you didnt intend too 

Thanks for the replies fellas. Might just wait to update until I have my 6, which is supposed to be tomorrow.

I was excited as hell to set up Apple Pay....

....only to realize my bank isn't supported yet

 

[mints]

It's like realizing that you don't have a computer that can handle handoff. Even though I don't NEED it, I so want to splurge and buy a new MBP just to try it out.

 

[grimeyy]

Too bad Canada doesn't get Apple Pay until 2015...

 

[stay lurkin]

Can we send money to each other via Apple Pay? Like if we are at a bar etc or can I simply just send a friend payment?

 

[a-friend]

Is this ios8.1 the newest update?
I thought it was 8.2 or 8.0.2 or something like that?

 

[stay lurkin]

Yeah. iOS 8.02 was the last update. 8.1 is a higher number than 8.02

no, i think its just a way to use your credit card at a retailer. not pay each other virtually like paypal

Had this same problem just as I was about to leave to test it out at McD's.  Wanted to win some more at Monopoly, but no dice.  

Fortunately my credit union said on Twitter that they would be supporting it, so now I wait.

hey is the iPod touch worth a buy?

bought the rd 5th gen one and use it mainly for my music. updated it and lost all the music so im starting fresh haha

 

[still itachi]

Tried Apple Pay twice today at Walgreens. Worked flawlessly and quickly both times.

 

[cakeddout]

[krazyrodzilla]

Darn it, sucks, that's why I'm not updated yet.

Not if you have a iPhone

Especially now that you can get a 64 or 128.

I used to use one for the gym, because it was easier because of the size. Then the battery became crap.

 

[s dubl]

If you have an iPhone, ipod classic is the way to go if you absolutely need an iPod... To bad they stopped producing them...

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

Ok, thanks guys. I'll be on the fence for a while about this iPod touch. I only see it being worth it because of the color I wanna get but I'm using an android and my music files are so low.

 

[computersputin]

Yeah, if you're not using an Iphone, why not. That way you can also use all the iOS features too.

just wondering, why do you like the classic over say an ipod touch?

 

[mints]

160 GB for $249 vs 64 for 299. Also using the classic is very intuitive without even having to look down at the iPod, using it in the car, occasionally my head unit controls don't play nice with it when I'm getting going, and I can still navigate to shuffle without looking down.
