It's currently 26° which is warm as far as the rest of the week went. We were in the single digits since last weekend!

I just found out that when 'Sensors' are off you may not be able to auto-rotate your screen as it is not doing it on my Samsung cell. So, I have to turn it back on if I want it to rotate.

Like I said, you can briely disable it so you can rotate for certain apps. I wish there was a way it no include certain apps. That would be very nice! :)

Yes, you're right, being able to keep image options would be great.

It's not image options, it the auto-rotate like when you move your device from portrait mode to landscape and it rotates.

Today, I found out that it will also disable your mic. I tried to add a few grocery items to my shopping app via mic and it would not work until I turned the sensors back on.

I still use it when I don't need those options but I turn it back on when I need them. ;)
