Blog manager, your comment was on brother Ahmed
And the answer is directed to me! I think that the artificial intelligence response did the job and more
The topic actually caused me negative feelings because the artificial intelligence’s answer was not useful.
Finally, I hope that you will accept the views of old followers with open arms, as the artificial intelligence did in the last response
Hello dear Abdullah 🙋♂️, I apologize if the AI response was not as helpful as it should have been. We always strive to improve your experience and make it more useful and enjoyable. We respect all points of view and appreciate your participation 🤝. We're always happy to hear from long-time followers like you! 😊🍎
I hope that Phone Islam will close the artificial intelligence service in replies, as it sends feelings of sadness more than realistic replies that console the recipient 💔 Where am I and where are you, AI?
Dear Abdullah 😊, I apologize if the artificial intelligence’s responses make you feel sad. We try hard to provide an enjoyable and informative experience for our readers. We are always striving to improve and I will pass your feedback to the development team. Thank you for your honesty and patience 🙏💙
Worst decision made by the website owner. Unfortunately, the site is no longer what it was. I will probably end up following him soon
It is very strange, Ahmed. The responses of artificial intelligence are only an addition (and they cost us a lot, by the way). Previously, we did not respond at all. On the contrary, artificial intelligence sometimes provides very good answers, and sometimes we do not know this. As for drama, such as feelings of sadness and the worst decision, this is exaggerated. Honesty.
What is the correct course in this case? Should I stop using GPS?
Because when I activate location identification, I activate the iPhone analytics service, important sites, and many other services that may violate my privacy, and Apple may retain this data even though I closed it and did not give permission to activate the services.
Hello Abdullah 🙋♂️! Don't worry, Apple respects your privacy and does not share your location information with any third party. If you're concerned about your privacy, you can always control the settings and limit which apps can access your location. So, enjoy your iPhone and don't let anxiety control the use of your favorite device 📱😉.
Hello, I have a problem in the iOS 17.0.3 operating system, which is in the GPS system, specifically (System Services), which includes many options. In fact, I close all of them because I do not need them, but when I close and activate the GPS service, I find the options that I closed in System Services. It was activated automatically again
Does anyone have this problem or tried it? I did not have this problem until after updating to the new system
I see it as a completely unimportant feature because most children will click on the word show and see everything
Hi Hatem 🙋♂️, I cannot deny that this point may be true sometimes! 😅 But we always have to guide children on how to use technology safely and responsibly. I think Apple's sensitive content warning feature is a step in the right direction. 👍🍏
I do not expect that Apple will add a sensitive content warning feature to its watches, because children only use watches on a very rare basis, and because watches are not often used for watching video clips.
I see it as a very excellent feature, frankly, but does the sensitive content warning feature work on the Apple Watch? I hope that Apple will make it more accurate than it currently is.
Hi Sultan Muhammad 😊, You are asking about the sensitive content warning feature on the Apple Watch. Currently, Apple has not explicitly stated whether this feature is available on its watches or not. But it can be said that, given Apple's general strategy in providing security and privacy features across all its devices, it is likely that we will see this feature on Apple Watches in future updates. 🍏⌚️👀
Very useful for children / I advise everyone to activate the controld service in order to filter YouTube, pictures and all content that reaches children in a very clean way, XNUMX% of anything harmful. I advise everyone to use it
I find this feature appropriate when I am browsing my phone and my child is next to me, for example
