Another fine video! Two questions: does one have to have wifi in order for "Translate" to work? You referred to having your "side button" triple press and do something. Where can I find out how to program the side button(s)?
Hi Gary, i installed it in my ipad. These features for ios iphone dont seem to be active on the ipad. How come?
Thanks for your response. I hesitated to install on my iphone because it seems that ios 14 on my ipad has screwed up accessing my contacts. Can i un install ios 14 on my ipad?
Marcy: Some features are, some are not. Many of these features try to help out iPhone users and their smaller screens. Uninstalling iPadOS 14 is not the answer to fixing problems. Instead, try to figure out what is going on with your contacts. In what way are they not accessible? Call Apple for support or stop by the Genius Bar if you need to.

Thanks Gary, After I watched this video I checked my phone and it hadn't updated yet. The software screen said it was updated but then I clicked check for new updates and it found 14.0.1!
Do you remember all that you have taught all of us over the years?

What happens to all the icons displaced when you put one of those giant (ugly) blocks (widgets?) on your home page? Do they get shoved to the next page and icons on every subsequent page get partially shifted too? Not good. One poster on TidBits suggested they all got deleted, and had to be re-extracted from the library. Also not good. What’s your experience?
Dana: If you think they are ugly, you don't need to use them. Icons are moved to a new page yet (not deleted!) and all other pages are intact.

I’m up to date on downloads. My default browser is “DuckDuckGo”. I don’t see “Default Browser” OK., Safari set as icon on iPhone. When I click I get my favorites no bookmarks, side bar reading lists? Is all that only for iPad iOS

Gene: Yes, of course. How would you load the web page in the first place? Even if you did, how would that page be reloaded in a translated form? The "Accessibility Shortcut" has been around for a while. I did a video on it a while back: https://macmost.com/how-to-customize-the-triple-click-iphone-accessibility-shortcut.html

Norm: Reading list in a sidebar is Mac and iPad. There's no room on an iPhone screen.
