  @Svntvmvriv Fix the bugs on the app in the Apple Store. It messes up every time you switch between watching streamers or if you click out of the app you lose the emotes and have to close and reopen it.

  Apple is not doing well at all, what the actual hell? Bought three MacBook Airs a week ago for my team members and almost forgot about it. Why did we unbox them like a kid on Christmas day, only to discover that two of them straight up had NO power adapters in the box. Just the laptop sitting there looking pretty and completely useless. I called the supplier and he's telling me two must be EU/UK and they don't ship with chargers, only US ship with adapters. Werey even sent me bill for two chargers immediately. What is all the nonsense “in the name of compliance” or whatever eco-friendly PR stunt? Where exactly do you expect me to magically pull chargers from @AppleSupport ? Thin air? The nearest Apple Store at 2 a.m.? Or My neighbor’s junk drawer? This is such a **** move. Paying full price for three machines and you’re making me run around hunting for bricks like it’s 2010. Ship every ******* box with adapter or fix your packaging and least slap a warning on the box. Ridiculous.

  @amazon 5/This isn't my first Apple purchase on Amazon. I've bought NEW (not refurbished) Apple devices directly from Amazon's official Apple store before, with zero issues — proof that my account, my card, and my buying history are completely legitimate.

  Here's what she told me at the end: Apple operates over 500 retail stores in 26 countries. They generate more revenue per square foot than any other retailer in the world. But the money isn't what makes them different. It's what happens inside them that most customers never experience. Free diagnostics that catch $99 problems before they become $2,000 replacements. Free workshops that teach photography, video, music, and coding every day, in every store. A trade-in program that turns old devices in any condition into instant credit. Education pricing that saves students and teachers hundreds of dollars. Personal Shopping Sessions that build your perfect setup with zero pressure. A Small Business Team that configures, deploys, and manages devices for companies. A Self Service Repair program that ships genuine parts and professional tools to your home. An app with AR shopping, video consultations, and express checkout. And a 14-day return policy that lets you live with a product risk-free. Most customers walk in, buy something, and walk out. They never book a workshop. They never schedule a diagnostic. They never check their trade-in value. They never ask for education pricing. They never meet the Business Team. They never know about Self Service Repair. They never try the return policy on a purchase they're unsure about. "Apple built the highest-revenue retail stores on earth not by selling harder, but by offering more. The selling happens because the services build trust. Most customers access 10% of what the store offers. The other 90% is sitting there free, available, and waiting for someone to walk up and ask." She said the 9 services above are available right now at your nearest Apple Store. Most of them require nothing more than walking in and asking. Some require a quick online booking. None of them cost anything beyond the products themselves. The store didn't change. What you know about it did. And that's the difference between someone who buys from Apple and someone who actually uses an Apple Store.

  @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.

  @SusanDReynolds Need a cop? All you need to find is an Apple Store and there will be at least one cop out front courtesy of Apple,,, no Apple Store nearby, if you’re a sailor, no- your assailant has a gun be absolutely sure to mention that to the police when you call, it makes a difference. During those 20 years, we were consistently the only house on the entire block to display lights out front at Halloween and Christmas. We gave out a **** ton of candy. I saw some guys Tazed out my living room window , once my wife saw a stabbing across the street where, after the cops showed up, everyone left OK. five police in riot gear with ARs arrested a guy down the street, in his apartment . I was mugged a block away, identified who did it. The cops assured me that the bad weekend he was about to have was probably going to be the only punishment he got and they were right thanks. I watched thousands of dollars of groceries walk out the Safeway door at seventh and Cabrillo. My fondest memory was watching a Young partier with crazy hair run out the front door with a 12 pack and a chicken and hop on his skateboard which he had deftly positioned across the street. He was down to Balboa, dragging the tail to maintain his speed it was quite awesome.

  @apple, I am waiting for my refund check for the products I’ve paid inflated prices as you passed those tariffs down to your customers. Fortunately, I bought everything through the Apple Store and all the applicable transaction details should be on my account.

  I hate scammers who use "crypto" as an excuse, they give everyone and all legitimate businesses a bad name I have been following this scam "Crypto" company for a long time. They even had the audacity to open 4 shops in Malta promoting their scam to innocent people in person. They are called DistributeX and have also been organising cult-like "community events" to recruit victims They promise easy money for simple daily tasks (clicking green crypto icons on their app) + big returns on deposits starting from €140. Higher tiers require thousands of euros with massive claimed payouts. 180-day lock-in, referral bonuses, luxury rewards… the classic Scammer's pitch. I have since discovered they have: - NO clear registered company in Malta - No verifiable withdrawals (180-day rule + daily task requirement) - Physical “community centres” that feel like recruitment offices - Targeting mostly immigrant foreigners and using dodgy testimonials - App not on Apple Store but they are on Google Play! I have found warnings and court cases in other countries for this eg. Mauritius FSC alert I NEED YOUR HELP TO HELP DELETE THEIR APP ON GOOGLE PLAY This app should NOT be on Google Play. Apple already rejected or removed it, Google needs to do the same. Please report the DistributeX app on Google Play as a scam / fraudulent app. Spread awareness so more people don’t lose their money. Let’s shut this down before more people fall victims. I will keep you posted with updates and more info very soon. They have almost no official social media presence. Instead, only their “employees” and recruiters promote the scheme on personal profiles. I strongly suspect many of these recruiters are victims themselves, caught in the same trap and incentivised to bring in more people to keep the cycle going. When this inevitably collapses, they’ll likely be left holding the bag. @GooglePlay @Android

  Apple Is Testing AI Powered 'Live Notes' to Streamline Genius Bar Appointments. Apple is testing a new artificial intelligence feature called Live Notes, designed to make Genius Bar appointments more efficient for both customers and Apple Store employees. Instead of a Genius Bar employee manually writing down everything discussed during a repair appointment, Live Notes uses AI to listen to the conversation and generate a transcript in real time. The feature only works if both the customer and the employee give their consent, making it an opt-in system rather than something that's enabled automatically. Once the conversation is finished, the AI generated transcript is saved directly to the employee's iPad and becomes part of the repair record. This creates a detailed log of what was discussed, including the customer's description of the issue, troubleshooting steps, recommendations, and any repair decisions made during the appointment. The biggest advantage is that employees can spend more time interacting with customers instead of constantly typing or taking handwritten notes. Rather than dividing their attention between the customer and their iPad, they can focus on diagnosing the problem, answering questions, and explaining repair options while the AI handles the documentation in the background. For customers, this could also lead to more accurate repair records. Important details are less likely to be forgotten or recorded incorrectly, which can help if a customer returns for a follow-up visit or if another Apple technician needs to continue the repair later. Having a complete transcript ensures everyone has access to the same information. The feature also has the potential to improve efficiency across Apple's retail stores. By automating notetaking, Genius Bar appointments may move faster, employees could handle more customers throughout the day, and the quality of documentation could become more consistent across different locations. Although Apple is currently testing Live Notes in only some stores, it reflects the company's broader strategy of integrating AI into everyday services. Rather than using AI only for consumer-facing features, Apple is also exploring ways it can streamline internal workflows and improve the overall customer experience. If the trial proves successful, Live Notes could eventually become a standard feature at Genius Bars worldwide.

  @fwaevon I recently went through this. The smiling kid at the mall kiosk offered to fix my cracked screen for $60 but had to disclose it would void my warranty with Apple. So I went to the Apple store and paid their price. I guess I passed the loyalty test, at least this time.
