You know what? You can keep your Spotlight, your Cut, Copy & Paste, your MMS and your landscape keyboards, your improved calendar and your Voice Memos* app. With Apple’s latest iPhone OS update, it was a much smaller new feature that made me happy.

Buried in Settings > Phone is a shiny new field: ‘My Number’. For many iPhone owners, this won’t make any odds, but I bought a Pay and Go model, and transferred a number from my old T-Mobile account. Although the transfer was eventually fine, my iPhone resolutely decided that my number (accessible via the Phone app) was the one on the iPhone SIM card, not the one that had been transferred.

As someone notoriously bad at remembering my phone number, this wasn’t great. However, the aforementioned new feature means my Swiss-Cheese memory won’t have the problem again. (And, yeah, I know many other phones have been able to do this for ages—yada yada—but my phone couldn’t.)

* In fact, you really can keep that one, Apple, because I don’t use it, and it’s getting really annoying that you can’t get rid of the default apps. Do we really need Stocks ‘forced’ on us? Gnh.

Cunning Photoshop ahoy! My actual number isn’t 07-blurry squares-blurry squares-blurry squares, etc.
