Izuma Bakumatsu (@izumabakumatsu) reportedI think it's time AT leaves Apple store cause they've always been such problems with these kinda games. That said... this has been a nice time to actually go through the archive events for once.

Hardik Guliani (@haaardddikkk) reportedMy iPad Air, bought in Feb this year, has terrible battery drain during streaming or video calls—100% to 20% in just 4 hours. I’ve visited the Apple Store and contacted Apple Support, but still no resolution. @AppleSupport @Apple, please look into this.

Thomas Rose 🍵🌹 (@thetroseshow) reported@saradietschy The only thing that a pass key has been useful for is when I had it saved in my iCloud and tried to add all my Gmail accounts to my new phone after turning over my old phone to the rep at the Apple Store. Cuz like how can you open the YouTube app on your old phone to verify a sign in for your new phone if you don’t have it! Uhh!!

Shayne (@shayne_snape) reportedMy app got rejected for a missing Terms of Use link in description.That's the Apple store Review experience. A static field. Checkable in seconds — at submission time.The automated check fired the NEXT DAY instead. Back of the queue. A weekend lost to a 10-minute fix. The tooling exists. It just runs a day late.

Prof Adebayo (@ProfAdebay) reported@dhh In case you’re wondering how he set this up: Download Tailscale: creates the secure private network between both devices. Dowload Termius on playstore or apple store: the terminal app running on the Fold. SSH: connects Termius to his remote computer or VPS. Install Codex/Claude on the server: runs on the remote machine as the coding agent. The Fold is the interface; the real development environment and computing power remain on the remote machine.

Your Tech Guy 🎖️ (@yourtechguyyy) reportedThank you bro. That 128 gb storage on 16 Pro was absolutely chaotic , so a change was necessary. I always had full storage and I was deleting and downloading the same apps every day. My Dad got an iPhone 17 in mist blue as well, , trading in my old 16 Pro at the Apple Store for $925 aud. Got the full value for it, despite having some deep scratches. iPhone 17 was $1399 aud, after the Trade In, it was $474 aud. This iPhone Air was his for the last 4 months. But now he transferred everything to that 17 , so this Air is mine. I did an iCloud backup , and have iOS 27 beta running on this iPhone Air in Sky Blue. I could have chosen the 17, but I wanted a unique iPhone, and so far I don’t really have an issue with it. I wish 0.5x camera and better battery life , but it’s amazing and beautiful iPhone. The 12 gb ram with the best Siri and expressive voices is amazing so far. It’s like my silver cellular 11 inch M5 iPad Pro with both having C1X cellular and N1 Wifi/Bluetooth/Thread chips — the phone and tablet feel like twins. For now, Air is a “temporary-relief” iPhone mainly for storage. If the iPhone 18 Pro interests me, then I might get that, and give this Air to my mom. She needs an iPhone as well. currently has Pixel 7 Or if the iPhone Air is okay, might as well wait for the 20th anniversary iPhone. Or my dad might get the foldable iPhone Ultra, and give the 17 to my mom. Time will tell. Interesting times ahead such as the new HomePod, Apple TV with AI, MacBook Pro/Ultra with OLED screen etc.

Christopher Woggon (@chrissyinspace) reportedI just poured juice into my MacBook. It wasn't a lot, but enough to worry. Dried off, tent mode. You know what's really annoying about modern MacBooks? They turn on after the slightest touch of any key. The power button is touch-sensitive (no physical "push" needed). The thing turned on 6 times on the way home. Local shop in Bangkok won't fix it (it voids warranty). Not enough time for bringing it to the Apple Store (I leave in 3 days). There's an authorized shop in Da Nang, but it takes ~3 weeks (according to reviews). I leave after 2.5. After that I'm in Korea. No issue there, but it's 3 weeks after the incident. Apparently juice is the worst (corrosion). I always drink black coffee ... the one day I don't 😣 The upside: I have AppleCare+. It's covered no matter how far the corrosion proceeds, and what breaks. Also, I have my old MacBook Air. I can keep working. Kind of weird timing after my recent posts (see quoted). It'll be fine, but damn it's stressful. It's nice to be able to scream "liquid on keyboard, new branch, push everything, quick" at your agents. They really did hurry. Now I can continue working. </life-update>

Arsalan Tayyab (@ArsalanTayyab7) reported@Camsiyonna1 Went to Apple store in the Mall and one of their female representative asked for my ID and I'm facing problems on many fronts similar to the video.....! Personal information exploitation is a very lucrative asset in malls!

Vitaliy Sokolov (@askvitaliy_) reported@lilyraynyc There are really only two reasons why people leave reviews: either they received exceptional service (or an exceptional product) that completely blew their mind, or they are super unhappy. The proof of this is very simple: look at the reviews for any Apple Store. Apple is the number one brand in the world, and people absolutely praise their products. Yet, none of their physical stores go above 3.8 stars. On Yelp, some of them don't even cross three stars, and on other apps, the ratings are even lower. Do you think all of their customers are unhappy? Of course not. But if everyone left reviews, we would see a totally different picture. The reality is that people need to be incentivized to leave reviews, because otherwise, they simply won't write them. Think about it: • If you go to your local pizzeria and have a regular slice of pizza, are you going to pull out your phone and write a review? Probably not. • But if someone doesn't like their slice, they are going to write the nastiest review in the world. Meanwhile, the hundreds of other people who eat there every day and enjoy it will write nothing. As humans, we only pull out our phones to write a review when something ridiculous happens and we want the world to know—either because the service was mind-blowing, or because we are super upset. When our expectations are simply met—like going to a hotel, having a regular stay with no problems, and getting exactly the room we expected—we don't think to do it. That is why the whole review ecosystem is broken and unfair. It only captures the people who are super happy or super unhappy, leaving almost no representation for the silent majority in the middle. If you want regular customers to write reviews, you have to incentivize them to pull out their phones. We all have busy lives, and nobody has the time to search for your business and write a review for free.

William AI (@wiliam23820a) reportedThe uncomfortable truth: Apple operates 500+ retail stores worldwide. Each one generates more revenue per square foot than any other retailer on earth. And most customers use the store for one thing: buying a product and leaving. Free workshops that teach photography, video, music, and device mastery never attended. Genius Bar diagnostics that are free on any device never requested. Trade-in valuations that take 3 minutes and apply instantly never checked. Price matching against Best Buy and Target never asked for. A 14-day return window for risk-free testing never used strategically. Free data transfer and setup declined and regretted at home. Education and military discounts worth $100-229 never mentioned. Device recycling for every old gadget in your drawer never brought in. Every service is free. Every service is available. Every service exists to make the device you already bought more useful and the next purchase more affordable. The former employee's last line: "I worked at Apple for 5 years. I sold thousands of devices. But the most rewarding part of my job was the services not the sales. Setting up an 80-year-old's first iPhone and watching her FaceTime her grandkids. Teaching a teenager iPhone photography and watching his photos improve in 90 minutes. Running diagnostics on a 'dead' MacBook and fixing it with a software reset for free. Giving a genuinely kind customer a free battery replacement that should have cost $89 because she treated me like a person, not a register. The Apple Store isn't just a store. It's a service center. A classroom. A repair shop. A trade-in counter. A recycling facility. Most customers use 10% of it. The other 90% is free and waiting." 11 secrets. Same Apple Store. Same glass doors. The products are on the tables. The services are behind the Genius Bar, inside the workshop schedule, and on the website you've never scrolled. Walk in this weekend. Not to buy something. To learn something. Fix something. Trade in something. Ask about something. The store was always more than a store. Most customers just never asked.

HyBrid LFC🛡️🔴 (@hybrid_lfc) reportedTelegram will still come back to the Apple Store. This happened around 2018 and is definitely a glitch. People will create unnecessary agendas from it right now.

stevie (@stevie_builds) reported@woocassh Man Claude’s security is a pain. Security always comes at the cost of UX, but I think they pushed that one a bit too far. Codex seems to just ask less questions and get it done. I’m literally just about to go out to the Apple Store to buy a big fat juicy MacBook. But maybe I should just rent a server instead 😵💫

LibbyAnn C (@MarineLibby) reported@OzzySkateboard Here are a few bullet points from my week/month/summer/year/decade: I got up to an iPhone 12 that I bought fresh from the Apple Store in the summer of 2022 on my way to the airport to fly for an African Safari vacation. I realized my smashed camera iPhone wasn't gonna do. Only time I ever bought fresh from the store. Four years later I bought my third third iPhone 12, second refurbished iPhone 12 best of the best and got all kinds of screwed over by Walmart and Apple and Allstate Square trade protection plan so I am now mailing in my broken iPhone iPhone 12 and this is one of the last things I will do on this phone, the top half of the touchscreen doesn't work. They are giving me almost what I paid for it only because the seventh operator I talked to acknowledge that I started to return the phone before they anomalously cancel the insurance protection plan six days later. That was a month ago apparently on the books and I've been discussing this with them for three weeks. OK that was very very in-depth and just one bullet point. The end of the bullet point is I'm going to start using an LGK 51 I have lying around and maybe just use it for a map and texting and do literally everything else on my computer if and when I want to accept YouTube I will continue to do on the television from time to time but I will become a lot more selective in the content I view and I am unsubscribing from many many many many content creators who are feeling really bad this week for Perez Hilton, thanks for telling me that y'all are tethered opposition!!!
