![]() After looking at Air Radar I determined that a lot of people around me were on the same channels for the 2.4 and 5 GHz networks. I use an Airport Extreme as my router (turned off the router of my cable company's modem, which is what most everyone around me has) and it was set to select the channel automatically. I was wondering if the battery drain might be due to WiFi interference, so I used a program called Air Radar to look at the WiFi signals in my area and see what channels they were on and what the signal interference was like. ![]() Everyone and their cat (no dog building) has a WiFi router running. The list of WiFi signals I pick up at home is very long. I live in a large apartment building in NYC. I only pick up 2-3 other WiFi signals from neighbors. I was at my Mon's house for the weekend and noticed that my 10.5 iPad Pro hardly drained in standby. The guy at the store said that he had never seen that before. They ran a battery diagnostic, and the result was that the capacity was 115%. In the Fall of 2017, I took it to an official apple repair shop. The battery has bothered me since the beginning. ![]() I have had the device since late June 2017. I simply refuse to believe that is possible. The result was that my battery capacity was still at 100%. anyway, I got to talk to a more knowledgeable person who was very helpful and really did her best to help me. I had to tell her that that is only available on iPhone. The first person I talked to asked me to check battery health in settings. I was on the phone with Apple for 45 minutes this past Saturday. It usually looses 10-12%, while I am away for work during the day (10 hours).Ĭoconut battery says 81 cycles and 91% capacity. Sometimes it will lose 3% just by browsing for 15 minutes in Safari. It seems to drain faster than any iPad I have ever had (I’ve had 1, 2, 3, Air, Air 2, mini 2, 12.9 Gen 1 and now 10.5). My iPad Pro 10.5 also seems to have poor battery. ![]() I am glad this issue has been brought up again. Maybe someone out there can help us poor souls! Thanks for starting this thread! I was thinking about starting one here too to see if anyone could give some advice. I have Apple Care and it doesn't expire until June 2019 so I will be monitoring battery condition via coconutBattery and if it falls below 80% I will be taking it in for replacement. I also feel like it is draining quicker during normal use than it used to also. This is the first Apple device I have ever had a battery issue with. So based on the above, I am leaning toward the culprit being the Exchange account, which is a push account and therefore i assume is checking constantly for new emails, calendar events, notes etc.ĭo you have an exchange account configured on you iPad Pro?

![]() Latency is a term that is commonly used in online gaming. The more responsive and 'twitchy' the game mechanic, the more critical it is to make sure your connection is both optimized AND smooth.

Although apparently there is nothing spectacular here, this menu is incredibly useful. Furthermore, whenever you change Folder sets it will automatically update the Finder favorites.Īs you might expect, here you can find all the folders that were recently visited.

Hi, I have recently reduced ad frequency (and will keep reducing it in upcoming updates). I wish there were more elegant, ad-free versions of older games.

The gameplay is about the same as the WIN95 version (down to the pixely numbers in WinOS font), but the ads don’t respect your sound settings and a lot of the board in landscape mode is too big - it gets hidden offscreen and needs to be scrolled-to.

And because there are so many dogs in shelters, and only so much room to accommodate them, adopting a dog means that you're potentially saving one dog's life and making room for another dog to move in to the shelter. ![]() That’s a lot of dogs-and a lot of dogs in need of forever homes! And there are plenty of benefits to adopting a dog versus purchasing one: first, adopting a dog is almost always cheaper than purchasing one from a (reputable) breeder. With so many different types of dog breeds, what are the benefits of adopting a mutt? According to the dog lovers behind National Mutt Day, approximately 80 percent of all shelter dogs are mixed breeds. Ladies Morgan and Mathilda Wood-Menzies / Erin McCarthy While the American Kennel Club (AKC) does offer some activities for mixed-breed dogs to take part in, the organization only formally recognizes purebred dogs on its official registry (sorry Puggle lovers). Though designer dogs are extremely popular, they're essentially just fancy mutts. Where it gets a little confusing is when you come to designer or hybrid dogs, where two specific breeds are intentionally cross-bred in order to create a sort of sub-breed that mixes the best traits of both pups (like mating a poodle with a Labrador to get a Labradoodle). Whereas purebred dogs have registration papers that confirm the dog's single-breed pedigree, mutts aren't registered and each of their parents could be a mix of several breeds themselves. Meaning that, as the latter name suggests, they are made up of more than one breed of dog. But what exactly is a mutt? Is it the same as a mixed-breed dog? And how does it differ from other dog breeds?įirst off: The fact that National Mutt Day is also referred to as National Mixed Breed Dog Day should tell you something-namely, that mutts and mixed-breeds are basically the same thing. In 2005, animal welfare advocate Colleen Paige created the day, which is acknowledged once again on December 2 (because all those good boys and girls deserve two days of nonstop treats and belly rubs). July 31 is National Mutt Day, a day to celebrate everything great about mutts. |
