  • I’m not sure if they updated the website after I purchased it, but now the blurb for the Unifi Express says this:

    Manages up to four additional UniFi Network devices when operated as a gateway

    I have more devices than that, but still, it was literally not functioning with what I had. I also loaded my whole system backup including all historical data. That may have been the other thing that just killed it.






  • I’m also using for the flashlight.

    It can only be accessed by the Lock Screen button and the control center widget. The camera can be activated by app, Lock Screen swipe, control center widget, Lock Screen button, search, etc.

    I like the idea of using shortcuts to make it more flexible. However mute toggle and camera are not likely something I will pursue. (Why do people need to intermittently mute their phones, isn’t your phone always on mute?)


  • If I didn’t get a new phone every year I would likely not load a backup. It takes a bit more time when you just “sign in to icloud” and then go from there, but the phone feels a lot more “new”. Loading my old backup on a new phone just has too much familiarity in the way of app arrangement and whatnot.

    As with any new phone, ensure all of your core apps work before resetting the old one. Often 2FA and stuff can get you in a catch 22 if you are not careful.
