For the vast majority of the time, iOS just works.Massive difference just seeing how many people chat in the Android discussion compared to the iOS one.
I launched up Sharkey earlier in a Windows XP VM and someone replied who browses the web on an iOS 15 device which already doesn't have support to open it apparently

Google may have accidentally revealed when Apple will add RCS to iPhones
Google shared, then pulled back, a section in the Google Messages landing page after leaking Apple's timeline for RCS.www.androidcentral.com

Yes I'm the same garetc, I think the whole world and their dog use WhatsApp for messaging now.I think this is a bigger deal in the US?
most of my UK friends use WhatsApp my family and friends in the Canada/US all use iMessage.
Honestly can’t remember the last time I sent a real SMS to a person!
Only had it happen the once or twice on my 15 Pro when I banked with First Direct a few months back but now with Bank of Scotland and never had it happen againAny other 15Pro users here? Do you guys have issues with Apple Pay?
I only got the phone a few weeks ago, and frequently here and in the Netherlands my phone will display “Hold Near Reader” and just fail to work. Not just with payment terminals but also a gym pass I use.
It just happened again in Tesco, I took my case off and tried again, multiple times and there was no gap in between the reader and my phone. Then I tried my nationwide card and it said “Payment card not supported”. Waited for a few seconds and tried nationwide again and it worked, then less than a minute later I tried again and Apple Pay worked. It’s like when I try Apple Pay it bricks the card reader for 30 seconds. This exact thing happened to me a lot in NL, and the physical card doesn’t work for a period of time after I try Apple Pay, whether it’s nationwide, Santander, aqua etc
Extremely annoying and im outside of my return window
I'd be looking at pushing for a warranty replacement. Sounds like an NFC antenna issue perhaps?Any other 15Pro users here? Do you guys have issues with Apple Pay?

I read some posts on macrumours and Reddit of people who got replacements, so i'll try contacting supportI'd be looking at pushing for a warranty replacement. Sounds like an NFC antenna issue perhaps?
Ah okay, not sure it's bank related. I tried with Monzo and a few different banks today and had no luckOnly had it happen the once or twice on my 15 Pro when I banked with First Direct a few months back but now with Bank of Scotland and never had it happen again
My watch does it, can't stand it. My phone always works but what i did notice is that card terminals are much quicker to approve my Visa cards vs my MasterCard ones. Not an issue, just something i noticed.Any other 15Pro users here? Do you guys have issues with Apple Pay?

My issue is the display on my phone says “Hold near reader” and the card reader acts like nothing is being tapped against it, like it doesn’t even acknowledge my phone is thereMy watch does it, can't stand it.

Yeah my watch does that too. I look like a right n0b when it happens lolMy issue is the display on my phone says “Hold near reader” and the card reader acts like nothing is being tapped against it, like it doesn’t even acknowledge my phone is there
I’m sure my iPhone is some how disabling the card reader for a few seconds, this was very annoying in NL on self serve machines where it would time out after 2 minutes of me holding different physical cards in front of the reader after attempting Apple PayYeah my watch does that too.

Ive started keeping my monzo card in my phone case again as google pay was much more reliable.I’m sure my iPhone is some how disabling the card reader for a few seconds, this was very annoying in NL on self serve machines where it would time out after 2 minutes of me holding different physical cards in front of the reader after attempting Apple Pay
But all the people in Tesco behind me trying to buy lamb or whatever else for Easter did not appreciate this today
I’ve been using Apple Pay exclusively for nearly 5 years, google pay for a few before that. I travelled abroad many times without ever taking my cards with me. (Looking back that was stupid regardless)Ive started keeping my monzo card in my phone case again as google pay was much more reliable.
