@AppleSupport Adobe Acrobat vs Preview difference in spacing for filling out forms: Canada government ISP-8054-USA. Note missing digits from differing width calculation

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@accuweather radar page stays blank for last 2 months. US and in UK. Problems?

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@VerizonSupport Sometimes I don't want the 'personal service' - just show me a map of current trouble reports. Maybe I want to be reassured without the psychological deflection.

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@VerizonSupport is there an outage in zip code 20855 ?

@AppleSupport Text to speech reader stutters - reading random web pages. Nice if it were smooth - like butter. M2 MacBook Air, 16 GB RAM, other stuff running, but so what. Expect audio would be top priority for compute resources - or maybe using several cores to split up load.

@311MC311 I do add manual remarks. But I can't get past the input screen if I need a 'valid address' for an open field... Give me a tick box to turn off the 'valid address' during submission. (Not just your app, also ran into this in Vancouver)

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@311MC311 online MC 311 form - add a way to skip the 'street address' part of the form. Things like drainage lakes don't have addresses. I wanted to report shopping carts in the drainage lake behind (east) Shady Grove Metro Station - visible from sidewalk

@AppleSupport iPhone 12 - gets hot installing OS update -- why? Removed case to improve cooling. It's indicating 100% after an hour of 'update apple' icon. Same last update as well

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@311MC311 Not every service request has an address, and sometimes I just want to post a photo and description and move on

@yvrairport @architecture @richpeoplesproblems why do bathroom stalls open inward? I already can’t stand there with my suitcase. How am I supposed to open/close the door past the suitcase?

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@yvrairport check and replace the charger ports - gate E76 outlet charger falling out …

@AppleSupport iPhone screen editing feels like 'drag and loose everything' - give me some stability. It's a text database somewhere- let me edit those lists

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@AppleSupport iPhone screen layout editing sucks - widgets bounce around, disappear, don't hold still when I want to stack 2 into a folder. Can't drag from back screen (#10) to front screen(#1) without everything else bouncing. Give me something static

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@AppleSupport Give us a Mac app to edit the iPhone screen layouts - app icons and widgets. Apple Configurator has these minuscule icon dots that don't show widgets.

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@googlemaps Let me search on a map, while freezing the zoom. Sometimes I just want to know where things are in the current view. Give me the 'Japanese style' fine detail map view. Let me highlight all the train lines, or bus lines - without changing the zoom or view.

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@wmata Yes, it was Silver line going NW towards IAD. A lot of bounding over the middle of the journey. Wheil or Reston maybe.

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@wmata silver line to IAD bounces, at speed. Something is irregular on the track . Car 7197

@united app is slow to update the gate display, when I'm reading boarding pass. Had to close and reopen app to get it to update. I was already at changed gate. But great flight. Thanks

[Nick_R @Nick_R]

@united app forgets current flight segment, when I reopen phone. Boarding pass I selected goes back to the default/first segment. Pain when every gate is A/B/C and trying to find gate for that segment. Be nice if it held last status when I reopen phone
