    4/ The Apple Store vs Microsoft Store hiring hack Head of retail comes in proud: "I'm hiring a lot of Apple Store people." Jon stopped him immediately. "Go two doors down. Hire the people from the Microsoft store. They're selling a Surface next to a MacBook Air and they're not starving. Those people know how to sell." The fish were jumping into Apple's boat. You want the fisherman who had to work for it.

    Crazy, I was searching the Apple Store for an app like the one I'm building with 0 results, and just today - 2 popped up. 1 with the exact name I was going with... Atleast I got the .app domain name It's going to come down to distribution once I release

    Anybody else having trouble with their Apple phones?. mine stopped recognizing me, and the only way to repair it is to drive two hours to the city to an Apple Store ! I guess it’s time to order a new phone! I’m not spending $1.82 a liter to drive two hours

    I've been buying Apple products for 20 years—iPhones, iPads, Macs, smartwatches, Apple TVs, etc. Yesterday, I had a terrible experience at the #Apple Store in #Valencia: awful advice and service. Time to switch to Android?

    @TolkienCrafts @AnthonyZ_GTS @D162Michele Yes we need to have VPN to access Internet in China and had to setup an Apple Store abroad as most the app are censored in China . It’s terrible that most of people have no idea about the level of censor in China government do not allow us to see what we want they think we are idiot so we have some people at the top who decides what we have the right to see if you live in China you will understand the misery and suffer we have to endure

    @MichaelJBrewis I think one of the biggest issues is how hard it is to demo. Can’t let others try it out. The Apple Store demo is also horrendous. Way too high friction for such a novel device.

    Bought an iPhone 17 Air on April 27 from Dubai. Facing continuous bugs/issues from day one. Visited Apple Store in India, all updates/checks done, but issue still persists. Need proper support and resolution.@Apple @AppleSupport

    @Juggalotus209 Working at the Apple Store, we would get them all the time. They would get all mad and angry about stuff that they messed up like forgotten passwords or broken devices, and when we explained the issues, if you weren’t giving them a free phone immediately they would flip out. No sense of responsibility.

    @chiragbarjatya The charger… its not original… dont blame iphone for your fault man.. own it up.. using it pro max without any issue .. either get it checked in apple store or get it replaced under warranty … but first use original charger…

    @ravikiran_dev7 Take it to the Apple store, ask them to diagnose an issue that doesn't exist. They will return it to you completely spotless.

    @YoBoiiCrow I dont care much, its their problem if they sell it cheaper. All I can say is that they are legit, its like Apple store would not scam you. And I dont need to preorder this game lol

    Going to the Apple Store for this broke iPhone 17 pro camera. Idk if it’s a LiDAR issue but you can see the low fidelity of zooming all the way in…it’s not switching to the 4x lens but just digital zooming completely on the 1x lens. Sometimes the 1x lens will not focus when the 4x does.

    @orthokotan He really was, he went through a lot really, firstly he hates going in the car, then he was walked through a couple of department stores and the Apple Store, all new to him, it was a useful experience but he rated it 1/10! Once he was home and the adrenaline went down he slumped!

    Apple care is ******* useless. It’s been damn near a month bc Apple is “waiting for my phone to be in stock” and that’s after the whole fiasco of driving 3hrs to an Apple Store twice when they were going to “fix” it.

    2/ Went to Apple Store Saket on May 10. Made to wait 3 HOURS to prove the issue despite video proof. Device taken again. Now told I’ll only get it in the FOURTH WEEK OF MAY.

    @wholemars My iPhone 17 PM was faulty and I literally asked Apple if they could fix the device without giving me a new one. They tried their best and failed. I sat in the Apple Store for 4+ hours setting up the replacement phone.

    @Aevmorfop That's a good POV Personally I'm thinkin more about the kind of time when ai gets so good that it can oneshot apps in 2-3 minutes with minimal prompting and no errors When you think about it this way, it gets even faster than searching on apple store or something Obviously, stuff that required servers and so on will still require real apps, so this is more for the small apps like calorie tracking and todo lists and so on

    @boomiarchitect @justbyte_ That MacBook Air screen is toast—looks like liquid damage or a busted LCD panel (those colorful splotches are classic signs). Hardware failure, so no software fix. Restart/SMC/PRAM reset won't help. Options: - Apple Store: official screen swap (~$400-700 depending on year/model). - Authorized repair or reputable shop for cheaper parts. Backup data first if it still boots. What's the model/year?

    @Kuro17951 @rachael18536941 @PeriklesGREAT They would need to visit a specialist in neo-vaginas. Perhaps whoever created it. You can't take a Samsung into an Apple Store and expect them to fix it.

    @GenXDutchess2 @RadioWatermelon I mean, that’s how I downloaded discord many many years ago. Someone sent me a link to a discord server. I didn’t have a discord account at that time. And when I click on the link, a menu popped up asking me whether I want to download discord and it took me to Apple Store to download discord.

    @rose_stabler How did it end up? Most people who go to the Apple Store are there to make a purchase. Whereas the people there to take care of a problem concerning their device are handled by the technical staff.

    @CloudAce137 Idk it just refused to charge It’s not a cord issue either bc I have 2 phones and the other phone was charging just fine Had to go to the Apple Store and it wouldn’t charge there either They had to use a wireless charger and then it was working fine
