Considering the size of the new iPhone versus the 6 series of iPhones, which is
better to negotiate as far as navigating and entering the various gestures?
Is the smaller iPhone easier or harder as a result of it’s size?

I think it depends on the size of your hands. I’m a big guy so I like the 6s+

Simon, why don’t you run a Unix variant on your servers and just be done with
it. Much greater stability, great remote access and to say it’s tested and
true for decades is an understatement.
OSX server is just Unix with a pretty wrapper.

I finally got it to work most of the time and it’s a magical gesture. I love
going from one open app to another. I’m doing it vertically which is much
easier and more reliable so thanks to whoever suggested that.

I have to correct myself on the noise cancelling bit. The Marque 2 does have
some noise cancelling or noise reduction, but not as good as the Edge has as I

Regular OSX also has all the same server capabilities but you need to
know your way around the command line to turn on Apache or MySQL. OSX
server gives you a nice interface to all the good stuff under the hood.
Probably worth the $20 but I'm already familiar enough with terminal

Good question. Software-wise, short-term I’m thinking Windows with Linux as a

Yeah, OS X Server is lots of fun from the command line, although I’d take Linux

For what it may be worth to some, I found that, the first few times I tried
this gesture I was really using only three fingers because my pinky was not
really touching the phone. Once I adjusted my hand the small amount required to
compensate for this all worked fine. HTH

For me it also worked that way, initially I was not using all 4 fingers. then I
tried the vertical gesture and even tried using my thumb instead of pinky,
which also works btw.
Finally I hit the sweet spot and now seem to have the kinaesthetic memory and
can do it easily.

FWIW, I was able in the latest OS to get the VO drag commands to move something

1. Go into system preferences- Dock and uncheck “Automatically hide and show

2. Don’t use the drag command but instead use the drag after or drag before
