How Many Important and Useful IOS Settings Have You Not Noticed?
And do you know which ones you have changed?
Are you intimately familiar with the Settings app on your IOS devices or System Preferences on your Mac? I wish I could say that I am, but I’m not, and most who read this probably are equally unaware of everything that can be found therein.
Do you know which settings you have changed from their defaults? When you look at a particular setting, do you know if it has changed from its original setting? I can’t answer yes to either of these questions, can you?
When there is an update, do you know what settings have been changed by that, what new settings have appeared, what older settings have been moved or even have disappeared entirely? Again, I don’t know.
I get reminded of these knowledge gaps every time I notice or hear about a setting I didn’t know and when I tell someone else about a setting they didn’t know.
These things might not bother me if the settings were not so often very useful or quite important! By the way, everything here applies equally to the Apple Watch app, which has its own, separate settings!
