How do my wife and I set up location tracking
for each other on our iPhones? We both have the
iPhone 7S with iOS 13.
Sincerely,
Where Did You Go?
Dear Where,
First, each of you will need to turn on Location
Sharing. Go to Settings > Apple ID (your name) >
Find My and toggle on Share My Location. Next,
open the Find My app and tap on the People tab in
the lower left corner. Tap Share My Location, enter
your wife’s name or phone number, and then tap
Send. You can choose to share your location for one
hour, until the end of the day, or indefinitely. Once
your wife gets the notification that you are sharing
your location with her, she can then choose to share
hers with you too.

Since iOS 13, new sentences don’t automatically
start with an uppercase letter when typing on
my iPhone. Can you tell me how to fix that?
Sincerely,
Capitalize This!
Dear Capitalize,
Try this: In the Settings app, go to General >
Keyboard and make sure Auto-Capitalization is
toggled on. If it’s already on, toggle it off and then
back on again.
Ever since Apple introduced the Apple Watch
Series 5 with its always-on display, it has
become dramatically more difficult to get the
older versions to wake by raising one’s wrist.
Was the updated version of watchOS purpose-
fully designed to make the older watches less
responsive in order to get people to buy the
new Apple Watch?
Sincerely,
Is This a Conspiracy?
Dear Conspiracy,
In general, I have found that the usefulness and
functionality of Apple Watches hold up really well
over time compared to iPhones. Although I’m sure
Tim Cook would like us all to upgrade, I don’t think
Apple is trying to scam users into buying newer
devices.
I recommend going to the My Watch tab in the
Watch app on your iPhone and going to General >
Wake Screen and turning Wake Screen on Wrist
Raise and Wake Screen on Crown Up off and then
on again. It’s also a good practice to turn your watch
off and then on again any time you update the OS
or notice that the watch is not acting as you think
it should. If none of that helps, you can also try re-
booting your Apple Watch by simultaneously press-
ing the Crown and Side button until the Apple logo
appears on the screen and your watch restarts.
