There’s a “make default at Apple” button in the card settings that I was able to use to accomplish that without copy/pasting. Weird they didn’t just ask during the setup process.
You change the setting in the Wallet app. Tap your Apple Card, then tap the 3 dots in the top right corner. Press the button labeled “Make Default at Apple”.
I looked there. I really don’t have that button. At this point I’ve manually copied the card info for both my Apple IDs but I don’t think I had that button at any point. Maybe it’s because I have separate IDs for iCloud and iTunes.
If you’re on T-Mobile, dial (not text) #662#. It will turn on scam block [1] which stops all calls that T-Mobile identifies as scams from making it to your phone or voicemail.
Looking at the marketing material, it’s clear Amazon is trying to make people think this and hope they’re not disappointed when they find out that, yes, they still have to plug it into the wall.
There’s only one tiny image on the product page [1] that shows the power cord coming out. Every other image is very careful to show it from an angle that makes it seem like the HDMI cable is the only cable.
There is text that mentions the power cable, but you have to scroll down pretty far (about 60% of the way down) before you’ll see it.
You're thinking of two-step verification [1]. I believe getting rid of the recovery key is part of the "more streamlined user experience" offered by two-factor authentication.
My mortgage has been sold at least 4 times since I got it about 3 years ago. Each time, I get a letter from the old company and the new company. Hopefully, that's what happened here.
