Any good apps that share iPad screen with computer user? Basically TeamViewer that works to see iPad? Teamviewers quick support lets you send screenshots but not live feed...
As of iOS 11 you can see live feed

Word Flow from Microsoft, Swiftkey (now also acquired by Microsoft.) and Google's Gboard are popular ones. There is no "best", it depends on your own taste and feel.
The most annoying thing is that in order to access corporate email, I'm required to install Microsoft Intune and have corporate security policies on my phone. That disables access to any 3rd party keyboards to any built in apps such as mail, contacts, notes, etc. Swiftkey is my favorite keyboard due to excellent predictions. I just installed Gboard, and am playing with it a bit. Next word predictions aren't as good as Swiftkey, and interface is a drop different (switching languages on swiftkey is great). But one thing that Gboard has over the others is access to Google voice recognition, which I think is superior to all others.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Nowadays I’m using TapeACall. Been pretty happy with it so far.

Not a recommendation, but this one seems to be nice:

Quite annoying that there's no complete FREE solution, like what's available on Android. Though this one might be worth the $2.99 for premium version, as long as it allows enough customization.

Otherwise I use: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jewish-calendar-calj/id345650585?mt=8
or

Looking for an app (if there’s such a thing) that I can log into a different cell phone that i have, meaning I should be able to receive calls and text messages from my other basic phone on my smartphone.

I was recently introduced to TrueCaller. Doing a quick google search I'm a bit concerned about privacy issues...I noticed that they write "Your phonebook will NOT be publicly shared when granting Contact access. It is against Apples guidelines." Is that a new policy? Are there still other concerns?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Thanks.

Anyone got a recommendation for a shabbas alarm ( an alarm that auto shuts off after, say, a min or two)?

Echoing @AJK’s question 10+ years later… does anyone know of a good iPhone alarm app for shabbos?

Thanks! If you use it, do you happen to know if there’s a way to make it ring even if my phone is set to silent?

Just tried that out and it doesn’t seem to ring.y phone is always on silent, and I’m not sure I’ll remember to turn silent off before every shabbos.
