@wallstreetjournal: Apple’s newest iPhone software has a switch turned on by default: “Discoverable by Others.” This creepy-sounding setting is leading people to think their name and location are being shared without their knowledge and consent. That’s not the case, says Apple, but you might want to turn it off anyway. Some people are worried about the setting—even enough to email our tech columnist @joannastern about it. So she asked Apple what’s up. #apple #iphone #discoverablebyothers #tech #wsj #wallstreetjournal #thewallstreetjournal

Apple always had sharing between their phones. that's why you can ping people around and send them a text without having their number

My premed DD is thrilled to be going to SCU! She selected also because of their collaborative versus competitive environment in teaching as well as lab time, etc. The networking started right away!

Tbh this feature only works with contacts and only in the journal app. Concerning but it’s an easy fix.
