I can't see myself buying an iPod Touch ever again given how long they last, but get dumped for software support so quickly, more from Apple apps than 3rd party even.Resolve If Airport Utility Not Finding Airport Extreme: Apple makes it too difficult to report problems these days, probably because they don't want to hear about them. I tried to report this to Apple, but it wanted to install a support app instead first, which is ridiculous just to send a text message to support and probably won't work on this iPod Touch anyway.
There's nothing this app does that should need an OS update IMO and I'm not going to just toss it on the trash when it still works, but at the very least Apple could do a version check BEFORE telling me there's an update available!!! There is no way to clear this off the update list! It keeps telling me there's a newer version available, but gives then says it doesn't work on this iPod Touch.
Finally, when we are using access restrictions for one or two devices, it somehow seems to gum up the works for every other device in the house as well.Īt some point a few versions ago, this app started telling me it no longer works with my iPod Touch 5th generation, presumably because iOS won't update. This app does not provide anything even close that sort of immediacy. I also would like to be able to have a quick way to force wifi off for my kid's tech quickly and easily, like "stop access now and for the next x hours, just this one time" or similar. One must program 10p-11:59 then 12am to 7am on a separate "restriction." Some better, more visually intuitive examples of setting up access restrictions and permissions exist in other areas - this piece needs work. Also, it is set on a 24 hour day, so there is not one easy way to say no wifi all night, starting at 10pm on one day and going till 7am the next.
Once one gets to the point of programming the access restriction, it is actually a bit confusing whether one is delineating times wifi is allowed or not allowed. This is possible but awkward, requiring many clicks. I want to program in when my kid can't get wifi on their phone and laptop. However, the interface is not especially intuitive and this really shows up in the design/setup for limiting wifi access. This app allows interfacing with the AirPort, which is helpful.
