    Tips

    Changing your photo default settings from HEIC to most compatible. Settings > Camera > Formats. Set it to Most Compatible to favor .jpg files. Set it to High Efficiency to favor .heic files. .heic is a new file format for images that is much better in every way than the old .jpg format: it's smaller, and produces better compression with fewer artifacts. The only reason you might not want to use it is that it hasn't been implemented by every single service yet, so some places don't like it and when you find such a place and want to upload a photo there, you'll have to convert the .heic to a .jpg before you upload.

    Dave reviews the GoDonut universal stands for any tablet or smartphone. It works really well with the iPhone and iPad in different positions keeps it upright depending on your needs and gives you a great way to view your device on a desk or any table or maybe while you are cooking. It comes in fun colors and also they offer a 360 degree model that lets you spin in 360 for different positions. It doesn't support the larger iPad Pro 12.9 model but supports the smaller 11" and smaller models as its not stable with the larger sizes. Although you can use 2 GoDonuts to stand it up. Here are some photos.

    Dave also reviews the Ampridge Bluetooth MightyMic for iPhone or iPad. It has Bluetooth 5.0 support and is the size of a thumb drive. I played a demo recording I thought the sound was good. It also supports external mics I tested it with a lapel mic and works really well. The only negative is you cannot use it with the core apps like camera and audio recording but does work as a mic of the phone. The video app Filmic Pro works very well with this mic.
