Passwords & Account Recovery @marth_setup 1 week ago

My elderly dad keeps getting locked out because the codes go to an old iPad he never uses. I'd like to switch two factor off for his account, or at least move the codes to his phone. Options?

Phone stays at home on a stand most of the time and I'm tired of swiping up and typing a code. Is turning the passcode off the only option, and what do I lose if I do that (Apple Pay etc)?

Found my old iPod in a drawer and charged it up. There's no obvious power off option, holding play just pauses. Does it ever fully turn off or does it just sleep until the battery dies?

Bank site needs pop ups for statements and the browser blocks them. Don't want to switch it off for everything, just this one.

My Safari is stuck dark and every tab is private. Tapping Private in the tab view doesn't seem to switch it back. Is there a restriction stopping it?

Gmail now shows an AI summary box above some emails. I don't want it, but I also don't want to switch off every smart feature like spam filtering and categories. Is there a separate toggle?

I'm moving my photos to another storage service and want to switch iCloud off on my iPhone and Mac. Worried it'll delete my photos or contacts from the devices. Which way round is safe?

Holding the side button on my new Android just opens Google Assistant. I actually want to turn the phone off. Where is the power off option now?

My iPhone 17 died overnight. Black screen, no logo, nothing when I plug it in. It was at about 40% when I went to bed. Is there a reset combo I should try before taking it in?
