Hey Sarah,
How can I view more than the current month on my Apple Watch?
Sincerely,
Outdated
Dear Outdated,
You are far from the only person who wants to be able to see upcoming months on their Apple Watch. However, while the Today view in the Apple Watch Calendar app will show you appointments for the next week, even if a new month starts during that week, the Month view will only show the current month—even if it’s the last day of that month. Apple needs to add this feature, stat! The only thing I can recommend at this point is requesting this feature from Apple: Apple.com/Feedback/.
Hey Sarah,
How do I change the default Voicemail greeting on my iPhone 8 Plus?
Sincerely,
Leave a Message
Dear Leave a Message,
You can record a new voicemail message to replace the default one by going to the Phone app and then navigating to the Voicemail tab. Tap Greeting > Custom > Record, and then begin recording your new greeting. Tap Stop when you are finished or Play to listen to your recording. If you don’t like the message, you can repeat the steps to record a new message. When you have recorded a voicemail greeting you like, just tap Save.
Hey Sarah,
How do I alphabetize my Notes app? Right now it’s chronological.
Sincerely,
ABC
Dear ABC,
You can alphabetize your Notes app in Settings. Simply go to Settings > Notes and then under Viewing you will see the option Sort Notes By. Tap on that and select Title. Your notes should now be listed in alphabetic order.
