@habib is our other polyglot. Welcome. You probably have many words for cow udders.

Another downside of this latest firmware I see that only 12 seconds are being played in the events even though I have a paid subscription for whatever it was the highest available and most perks option.
Yeah I see habib is polyglot alright, looks like a Canadian crapple product user so must be speaking French and fluent crapple product user 
On a serious note, itās kinda cool .
I am on the other hand want to violently destroy my work crapplephone (wasnāt my choice of a device, damn management though it was my preference, oh boy were they wrong or what), it literally tests my patience every time I have to type something on that not so user friendly keyboard. I swear next time around upgrades Iāll be a pain in everyoneās ass until I get the android work phone.

Haha. I will let @habib speak for himself. I believe he is Eastern European but I forgot where specifically. I cannot defend his use of Apple products, but he seems like a nice guy. 
Iāll attribute your forgetfulness to the
Also not a fan. The last time I consistently [had to] use[d] iOS was because of a work-supplied (read: mandated) iPhone. Iād be marginally more tolerant these days since theyāve finally supported [a version of] my preferred keyboard layout for a couple of years, but I donāt appreciate the closed and tightly-controlled ecosystem or the drink-all-the-Kool-Aid attitude that a big chunk of their userbase seem to have. (Iām not accusing @habib of this.)
Dang, brah! This is gettinā to be like a Watercooler topic, and I donāt even own a duo-cam-doorbell!

Youāre welcome. I meanā¦uhā¦thanks! I appreciate knowing that my rambling has given someone a chuckle.
Also, soz for contributing to the topic derailment. Iād say something relevant about Duo Cam Doorbell if I had less snark, but Iām still really partial to my Video Doorbell v2.

I bought the v2 doorbell at what I believe was a good price at the time, the only problem with it was to hardwire it and I had no means to do it at that time nor I had much time for allocate to it, around same time the duo was released and like an idiot I did hit that flipping but button on impulse. The included chime in the box was like another bonus that made me smash that buy now button .I was also leaving town for work for 2 weeks and it seemed like it was better option to go for by the time they shipped it and itās arrival. In the end I installed the duo and if I recall correctly it was about 50% or so for two weeks I was out of town , there was some activity recorded, but nothing out of whack crazy, as there were no constant moving objects that would trigger the camera due to wind or vehicles driving by, just occasional people walking past the door. I bought power supply and ended up drilling a small hole through the door to feed the wires to the camera and having it run on constant dc voltage. To my surprise the battery pack was required to be installed in order for it to operate.
Yeah, thatās a known issue thatās been discussed elsewhere on the Forum. Wyze mentions it in the Help Center, but, like with a lot of their documentation and public messaging, thereās plenty of room for improvement.
Itās because the wires are there only to charge the battery,
To each their own my friend, I have been a crapple product user since 1987 and when the iPhone 1 was introduced I went and bought it. It was a revolutionary device that changed the history. As for speaking French, I only know how to ask the ladies if they would like to sleep with me 
. I took French for a week in middle school, but then I switched to English and here we are decades later.
Thatās how I feel when I am around Android devices and not only about typing. We are creatures of habit and old habits are hard to break.
Thatās not what my wife says
You would be correct, I donāt drink anything that I donāt want, but as I said earlier in another thread, the choice for using Apple products was mandatory in my field of work back in the 80ās and to some degree still is.

Were you one of those people who camped out outside of AT&T stores for days before itās official release sale date? I do not recall if it was cold already at that time, but you Canadians make us south of border even northern states look like wussies when it comes to tolerating cold.
Are there alternative keyboards available for iPhones?
P.S. Dude, we totally hijacked this thread way off topic

The only places Iāve camped are campgrounds and wilderness.
Nah, not me. Canāt tolerate cold, Chose a wrong country to move to.
I have no clue 
It happens around here, the mods are tolerant as long as weāre nice to each other. Also, I got dragged by @ssummerlin and @Crease here as I donāt own any of the doorbells. So, we blame those two if things go south here

Oof. Since Iāve been tagged off topic again, Iāll wade back into the madness. 
The last time I actually used an iPhone, there were some alternatives, but they didnāt integrate into the OS like a natively-supported keyboard. They functioned like apps (which they were) and didnāt necessarily play well with other apps, meaning that I couldnāt select one to be my āeverythingā keyboard and expect it to work whenever I needed to type something in other appsāwhere iOS would just maddeningly revert back to its own keyboard. I just gave up, and I havenāt paid much attention since I left the platform (until I saw that Ars Technica article).
I feel like Android (and its Linux ancestry) are friendlier to my fingers and brain.
You have a good solution, though. Itās simple, and I like it. 
Yeah, we have an excellent moderation crew, and we can even ask them to break this out into a different topic, which actually seems like it wouldāve been appropriate ~30 posts or so.

Android is very good with (software) keyboards. Last time I checked, I saw at least 4 that can replace the stock keyboard.
Maybe Eastern European Thread?
