Litsy

iPad: The Missing Manual | J.D. Biersdorfer

I just upgraded my IPad to iOS 18.4.1, and now Litsy isn‘t working right. I can‘t like posts, and it won‘t let me add an image to this post. Anyone else having similar problems?

LeahBergen Eek! I haven‘t upgraded to that one yet. 6h

TheBookHippie Ack. I didn‘t update yet. It is my fear as Litsy just gets managed not updated. 5h

rubyslippersreads @LeahBergen @TheBookHippie Strangely enough, I updated my iPhone to the same iOS with no problems. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 4h

willaful oh no... 4h

dabbe Probably a dumb question on my part, but did you delete the Litsy app, then put it back on there, and then restart your iPad? That might help. I'm scared to offer advice, though, because Litsy is such a dinosaur app. C'mon, Tim @ LibraryThing; update this app! 3h

rubyslippersreads @dabbe Not yet. I‘ll try that next. 2h

1. I feel okay today. Exercise class was fun, and we got some much needed rain.
2. Yes. It‘s how I stay in touch with some of my friends and get some (but not all) of my news. On the other hand, it can also be frivolous at best and mean spirited. I make a point not to argue with strangers, as tempting as it may be.
3. When I shut it down a couple hours before bedtime (except for Litsy of course), I‘ve found that helps.

Kerrbearlib Glad you had fun at exercise class! I have also found that logging off before bed helps. I try to log out between 9 pm and 10 pm every night and then give my electronics to my husband to hide. It‘s helped me sleep better. (edited) 4w

Susanita @Kerrbearlib That‘s a good idea. Unfortunately I have to use my phone to play music that will blot out the faux news in the other room, but I‘m getting better at doing that only and not going off on social media tangents. 4w

thecheckoutstack Thanks so much for listening @BookmarkTavern! 5mo

Chelsea.Poole Just finished the episode. Really enjoyed hearing @monalyisha and all the recs. This may just be my favorite new podcast!?! (I don‘t listen to podcasts but maybe I do now!) 5mo

monalyisha Aww, thanks @Chelsea.Poole & @BookmarkTavern! I don‘t typically listen to podcasts either but you know I think this topic is worth it…and I love Maria‘s passion! I *do* listen to Katherine May‘s podcast occasionally (because of course I do). And I managed to get into “60 Songs That Explain the 90‘s” for a while (the episode about Mazzy Star was my personal fave). 5mo
