Hi, I’m Isaac Smith, the founder and editor of PC Glance, a website dedicated to all things related to computers, laptops, and technology. Ever since I was a kid, I was fascinated by how these machines work and what they can do.
I spent countless hours playing around with my laptop, researching solutions to problems, and discovering new software and gadgets. Following my passion for computer and technology I did my degree in computer science and I’ve been writing about technology since 2020, now I am a full time tech blogger.
On PC Glance, I share my passion and expertise with you through helpful tips, honest reviews, and comprehensive guides. My goal is to help you make the best choices for your needs and preferences, and to keep you updated on the latest innovations and trends in the tech industry. I love learning new things and sharing them with you.
When I’m not writing or testing new gadgets, I enjoy playing video games, watching movies, and reading books. I also like to travel and meet new people.
Photo Shuffle gets the blame everywhere, and it is something you have to pick. A Focus swaps the entire Lock Screen instead, and it can fire when you arrive somewhere or open one particular app.
Swiping the card off your Lock Screen does not hide it, it ends it, and only the app can start another. Apple publishes no troubleshooting page for this, so the rules live in its developer documentation.
The controls that can silence a single person are not in the Notifications screen, and Apple documents them across four separate pages. One of them tells the sender. One of them cannot be detected at all.
Vibrate on Ring and Vibrate on Silent were replaced by one Haptics picker holding two options that are a single word apart. A switch in Accessibility overrides the lot, and Apple says it silences earthquake and tsunami alerts too.
How much went is the fastest clue you have, and some of what looks missing has only moved. Apple’s own sync fix says to move one setting whichever way it is not already set.
Almost every fix lives on one Settings screen, and Apple’s own turn-on step has a second tap that people miss. Plus what the connection advice everywhere else gets wrong.
Most of them were never closed. Safari keeps separate tabs for each profile, each Tab Group and Private Browsing, and one timer Apple does not document closes the rest.
Almost nothing is actually being deleted. iOS offloads, moves, hides or blocks apps, and each of those is undone in seconds once you know which one you are looking at.
Auto-Brightness is only one of several ceilings on the screen, and the newest one arrived with iOS 26 switched on. Here is what lowers it and what lets it back up.
A keyboard you are not looking at is usually the reason, and Apple puts its range at about 33 feet. Plus the one key that brings the onscreen keyboard straight back.
