Sarah Halsted (@SarahH255030) reportedI think my iPhone is defective. My texts won't send so I was forced to phone someone at 8:45 am, yuck, and they told me it said "Unknown Caller". And I am having trouble getting the phone to turn off. I guess I'll have to visit the Apple Store again and try to get a new phone... @Apple

Tech CPA (@hugenpb) reported@farmersbnkgroup is going through an internet banking upgrade. These are tough and impactful. I’ve done two in my prior days as a bank CIO. This one is a challenge. 👉 social media refers to a guide to download to prepare. But provides no link, and their website search provide provides no guide. 👉 their new mobile app cannot be found on the Apple Store 👉 their website, banner noting people need to click on their new link in order to re-enroll, doesn’t change the user experience on the webpage and users are unaware that they have to scroll all the way down to the bottom in order to find the new app 👉 the customer support line is a hybrid of AI and people. This is extremely frustrating for folks who need to navigate through the new experience and are simply looking for help. A computer program that simply responds OK and doesn’t provide any information and awaits the next prompt, is a customer service failure. 👉 this morning, as my wife tried for 40 minutes to get into her Internet banking, and ultimately ended up, waiting on hold for somebody to answer her, we explained these problems to the person who eventually did speak to us, and they threatened to hang up the phone when we passed on these concerns. They treated us like a child that she was not aware that she needed to scroll to the bottom. “I’m sorry the instructions didn’t say scroll, but it’s there isn’t it and you found it.” Ouch. 👉 it is amazing how one moment to pour customer service can outdo all of the hard work and effort that people behind the scenes put in to making some of these technical transitions go smoothly.

Anubhav (@Anubhavhing) reportedFor Real Apple really needs to level up there Apple Store Connect platform. Everyday something is broken. I have been trying to get into the Integration page for a day now, it just shows that there is a error and the whole page reloads.

Cheap Jibes 🏴☠️ (@AbsenceMalice) reportedI actually took a 24” iMac to the ‘genius’ people in an Apple Store as I had 97gb system data. They pretended they didn’t know how to whittle it down.

🐍Cherry's Savage Garden🐍 (@Cherry0Reese) reportedBTW, a release of a myth banner is actually a great time to **** up a game's reach on the appstore by giving scathing 1 star reviews on Apple Store/Google Play. Logging in shows there's want for the game but bad reviews shows that there's game management issues. #NoValkoNoMoney

Kamsiob (@Kamsiob) reported@DylanMcD8 I remember the first time I saw this phone. Wasn't convinced to get it until I saw a friend who had it face down on a table and asked him what that was. Within an hour I was at the Apple store getting ready to shelf my Palm Treo which I had just recently switched to from a BB.

Darius the TRUE Starborn (@goneguy25) reportedLet’s see: -zero real innovations -losing ground to Android -lying about caring about the environment -sucking up to the government to keep your H-1B hires -iOS getting more bloated and less efficient -iPadOS not living up to the promises -Apple Vision Pro -ditching SIM cards -turning MacOS into basically iOS with extra steps -shutting down an Apple Store in Maryland JUST because they wanted to unionize -Apple Vision Pro -abandoning the Mac Pro for the Mac Studio -abandoning the iMac Pro -APPLE VISION PRO I don’t think so, Tim. 👋

x (@toiletduck23) reported@UU_Ess_Pee @deandunham I haven’t yet had a problem. But it is misleading. Even if you buy a film on the Apple Store, it says ‘buy’. Unfortunately it’s a consumer misconception that the hand over of payment for a digital item is yours. When ‘digital’ is concerned, it’s not.

Theron (@theron_chase) reportedNone of this requires spending $249 on a new pair right away. It's three things: check real charging habits, turn off features you don't need, and ask about the $49–$69 official battery replacement before assuming a full replacement is the only option. Go check your AirPods settings right now. If this was useful, RT the first tweet so someone else saves $200 before their next Apple Store visit. And if you've got a specific AirPods battery or connection question, reply and I'll help you track it down.

Eric Pate (@Eric_P8) reported@agupta @1776pax Respectfully Ankit that is not true. Disparate impact means that in practice even a 100% fair colorblind process is *defacto* illegal if it results in a non representative sample of hires. This of course is selectively enforced (big problem), but this means companies have to create explicit goals of hiring people solely for their immutable traits to defend against the EEOC. This isn't just big corporate, when I was a kid and worked Apple retail they had special bonuses for line level managers. I specifically recall Apple Store managers discussing the need to find "Pacific Islander" employees (which was hard in my area of Atlanta at the time) for $15/hr associate roles to get bonuses and promotions. It has been this way my entire life and is clearly anti-merit.

Zhmana hakimi. (ژمنه حکیمی) (@zhamanahakimii) reportedToday wasn’t a good day. I was already dealing with a lot and on top of everything, it was August 15th a date that carries so much pain for so many of us. Later there was an issue with my phone and I had to leave it at the Apple Store for about four hours .So I found a quiet corner and started reading with no phone I ended up reading for hours, until I fell asleep. When I woke up, I genuinely felt like a completely different person. And that’s when it hit me. Something as simple as reading, learning, escaping into a book, and understanding the words in front of you is a privilege that millions of Afghan girls have been denied for five years. Now imagine being told you cannot learn. That you don’t have the right to read or write. You might think, who would be crazy enough to say that? But yes this is the reality for girls and women in Afghanistan in 2026. Five years later, they are still being denied one of the most basic human rights: the right to learn.

The Augmented Path (@AugmentedPath) reportedTried Apple’s new hardware leasing option and got sent through @Klarna. Rejected with no explanation, then dumped back to the Apple Store home screen with an empty cart. Apparently Klarna wants you to build a purchase history with them before they’ll “trust” you. If they actually checked my credit history, approval wouldn’t be an issue. Really disappointing to see @Apple outsource financing to a company with a model like this.

William Rutherford (@WDRutherfordII) reported@AppleSupport need massive help fixing an error from Apple Store…your people simply told me to contact legal? They were rude, and I will if this is the only way…but this just seems like bad business…

Carl (@Gladvillain) reported@13_T_C It uses the xpub so we shouldn’t have any problems. But who knows really. Make sure you use the right one and not a scam. A guy last year lost 6 Bitcoin because he downloaded a fake sparrow app from the Apple Store. They have no app.

Ratep Leflore (@ratep_leflore) reported@tminnzy @ijustine @Apple see what I’m saying. You making him CEO like I wasn’t in the Apple Store looking up the material to make a better battery. Now you all made a big mistake. Don’t worry fuel to the flame inside me. I will make my battery and take out the problem child and put mine in.

Oscar (@HeyOscarx) reportedA woman spent 5 years as an Apple Store Genius. She repaired, troubleshot, and configured over 10,000 iPhones. She now runs an IT consulting firm. She told me: "Every iPhone owner walks around with a supercomputer in their pocket that's configured against them. The default settings drain your battery faster than necessary, share your location with apps that don't need it, let advertisers track you across the internet, send your typing data to third-party servers, keep a detailed diary of everywhere you've ever been, and let strangers ring your phone 15 times a day with spam calls you could silence with one toggle." "I picked up my mom's iPhone last Thanksgiving and found 11 problems in 3 minutes. Her battery was dying by 2 PM because 47 apps were refreshing in the background. Her location was being shared with apps she deleted 2 years ago. Her photos were accessible to 23 apps that only needed the camera. Her storage was full of files she couldn't see. And her Lock Screen was showing message previews to anyone who picked up the phone." "She'd owned the iPhone for 3 years. She'd never opened the Settings app beyond changing her wallpaper." "The iPhone ships with over 200 configurable settings. Most people have changed 3: the wallpaper, the ringtone, and the Wi-Fi password. The other 197 are running on defaults Apple chose and not all of them were chosen for you." Here are 11 iPhone settings most people have never changed and exactly how to change each one: 🧵

Peter C.B.A. (Just Drink Rioja) 🇬🇧 (@The_Baron_X150) reported@jonhoneyball @dhh Give me the Mac any day. Just had my M1 MPB Max back from the Apple Store repair (£125) and I couldn’t be happier. No interest in Windoze and its endless problems. 🙄 That’s safely confined to a VM.

SaMi (@info_with_ai) reported🚨 BREAKING: A former Apple Store employee revealed what they say customers rarely hear at the Genius Bar. If your battery health is still above 80%, you may be pushed toward a new iPhone when a battery replacement could solve the problem. Before your next Genius Bar visit, here are 5 things Apple employees may not tell you—according to someone who worked behind the bar:

Amy Dammit (@AmyDammit) reported@ssgtwrightusmc @Verizon We have had AT&T for over 20 years. I used to visit stores when I needed help, now I use the chat feature on their website. Have never had an issue, good results and I print off a transcript of the conversation. We have all Apple products and upgrade through the Apple Store.

Omkaar🔆 (@buildwithomkar) reportedFaced a similar issue at the Apple Store recently. Opted for credit card EMI on a MacBook, but the entire amount was billed upfront in one go. The store blamed it on the bank rejecting the backend EMI conversion. Credit card EMI processing in retail is notoriously messy.
