Is your name Casey?

There’s a couple notification settings that you can toggle on/off for iMessage. One of those settings is a specific notification if someone mentions your name.

This is helpful for a like a group text that you have muted, for example. You would get notified if someone said your name in there even though the chat is silenced.

When your mom typed "Casey", she has tapped on the contact displayed in the suggested word bar which highlights it in blue like this.

It means you’re saved as a contact in their iPhone.

that's just the @ mention in iMessage. You can get it by typing @<your-contact-name>

massages from outside the matrix are either imessage nor SMS, they're native quantum and therefore in grey. (names get resolved via dna to the host and therefore are hyperlinked)

Blue letters/grey bubble means a contact was mentioned.

Also you need to pay one of those chicks who do beat producer tags to say “WAKE UP C4SEY” now…

You are correct! This feature was added alongside the focus mode features and was poised as a way to take break and tailor you phone to certain times of the day but also still be reachable in cases of emergencies (via tagging in iMessage)

Hold up, you’re telling me my name will turn blue if it’s typed?

stevrevv59 t1_iya07t3 wrote

You can do it too! As long as they’re saved in your contacts and you are messaging them directly or in a group chat. It’s kind of like tagging them if you’ve ever worked with MS Teams or similar.

If you're reading this, you've been in a coma for almost 20 years because of a car accident. We're trying a new technique. We don't know where this message will end up in your dream, but we hope we're getting through. Please wake up, Casey.

If you write your contacts name and then hold it and let go you’ll be able to do the same. If your contact is John smith, write John, hold it and let go, then you’ll be able to do it

What is the point of it though? I saw someone else say it’s like tagging someone. But if you’re already texting them, they’re tagged, are they not? Group text could be useful if it notifies that person and that person alone, but you could just send a regular text at that point.

Replying to Viicafc (#775,655)

In a group chat? Is the initial notification not good enough anymore? Like sending a text to someone is the ultimate “@“.. I can’t seem to find any functional use with it, but I’ve only tried it texting with my SO.

@[name] automatically bolds it. Just typing in the name of the recipient, your phone would prompt you if you wanna bold it (for pinging). You can try it right now on iMessage

They mentioned you. When the letters are Bildes it means someone mentioned someone they did @Casey and it did it.

My weird tech-phobe husband discovered this by accident and I couldn’t figure out why the hell his messages were being sent quietly and loudly (and of course he certainly didn’t know). The bubbles were also hilarious. For a while there he was an imessage version of boomer facebook.

You can control to focus distance of Portrait mode in the camera app using the circle "f" button that appears in the upper righthand corner of the app.

Go to settings -> messages and scroll to the bottom of the page. There’s a setting called Notify Me, you have that enabled if your name in your phone is Casey

Hey can I ask a quick question? I only ask because I know also of someone who wakes up very late in the afternoon (like no amount of alarms can wake them up). Or is it one type of thing? I tried all sorts of things for them, but they need at least 12 hours at night and then can even fall asleep in the evening as well. Meanwhile I can wake up from my neighbor sneezing.
