While some data you back up to iCloud was end-to-end encrypted, like Health data, Apple held the decryption keys to other data, like iMessages, photos, and notes. The benefit there was Apple could help you retrieve much of your important data if you lost your Apple ID login, but Apple having the theoretical power to read our messages didn’t sit well with many people. Advanced Data Protection for iCloud fixes the issue (for the most part). With it, the number of data types end-to-end encrypted in iCloud backups jumps to 23. Mail, Contacts, and Calendar are the big three that aren’t E2EE, but at least now, Apple doesn’t have the keys to the rest of your data.

Of course, they have the same power, too. https://www.tausiinsider.com/45-of-tausiinsiders-favorite-iphone-hacks-of-2022/?feed_id=327058&_unique_id=6410f00c74c23

If you’ve recently switched to a larger iPhone and are struggling to adapt to its size, t here are some steps you can take to make your new phone easier to use. Change how you hold your iPhone Smaller iPhones are far better suited to one-handed use than their larger counterparts. If you’re used to gripping your iPhone with one hand, the sad fact is you’ll likely enjoy your phone more if you switch to a two-handed grip for more tasks. If you can’t kick the one-handed habit, though, here’s what to try next. Take advantage of Siri more often Rather than attempt to stretch your fingers for every task on your iPhone, delegate some of them to Siri.
