Eric Smith (@Eric_Smith08) reportedHere'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.

Acarria White (@AcarriaW) reported@Sweetly_Shar @DemzDeliver Incorrect. When in poverty, you don't go to an Apple store and start stealing ****. You go for food. I've been homeless for 3 years in my life, homeless. I never stole, never needed to and neither does a single other person in this country. Every single one of them can very easily get help when and if needed. Doing otherwise is a CHOICE, a terrible one too. No, they steal and break into places to steal the most expensive **** they can so they can sell it online for drug money, clothes to make themselves look rich, or to buy things they don't NEED because they feel it's owed to them. There's a sickness with those cultures and it stems in self entitlement. Also affordability...in NYC? LMAO hahahahaha oh that has been in the gutter since that man took power, even before him it was bad, but it's worse now. Also you don't know the term Bum. I work for everything I get...as a ******* MUTE. I put in all the work myself and work hard, unlike thieves and ****** people who think everything should be given to them.

Boon Tee (@BoonTeeEng) reportedIf you bought an iPhone and think paying extra for AppleCare means @Apple will take care of you when the battery becomes practically unusable, think again. Apple’s position is simple: if your battery capacity has not dropped below 80%, they will not cover the battery replacement under AppleCare. My own experience has been extremely disappointing. After almost two years of using my iPhone, the battery has degraded so badly that it can no longer last a full day outside under normal usage. When the phone was new, the same kind of usage could easily last me around two days. I went to the Apple Store. I raised the issue with Apple Support. I formally complained and escalated the case. In the end, the answer was still the same: policy is policy. If the battery is above 80%, replacement is out of pocket. What frustrates me most is the complete lack of regard for the actual user experience. Apparently, it does not matter how badly the battery performs in real life. It does not matter how much the battery has deteriorated. As long as that number on the screen has not crossed Apple’s magic 80% line, the answer is no. So much for paying for AppleCare and expecting meaningful support when the product has clearly degraded. Very disappointed with Apple. @tim_cook

Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter (@AbeLincolnlives) reported@EduMock I’ve been trying to make this app for myself but am not a good enough coder. Great stuff ! This app will be huge if Apple Store buys it. My apps problems have been consistently scanning and pulling up the right card.

Ryan (@SuperNetzel) reported@badlyer123 @grok I don’t use a case. Anytime my phone has been damaged, in the rare case that happens I go to the Apple Store and they fix it and I leave.

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:

Macrodosing Plastic (@RumIsGoodBoy) reportedCouldn't cancel my Apple subscriptions because i dont have my phone anymore. Wanted me to go to an apple store to deal with it. I put a block payment on them and now theyre emailing me saying I got payment problems #GetFucked

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.

Roger (@rgrfoss) reportedApple store connect review process is broken. Takes over a week to review an app.

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.

critical_thinker (@hypos0v) reported@realMAG1775 Kids each have a Neo. Yes, you pay the "Apple Tax" premium but the **** just works.... I don't need to play IT guy.... If they do have issues they go into the nearest Apple Store and it's promptly taken care of. With my Dell it's endless cycles with Indian support idiots who can't even spell DELL.

John Strom (@JohnStrom64) reported@ValerieAnne1970 Yep. My iPhone 11 suddenly started having issues typing messages. Never damaged or wet. Just one day, started acting up. I took it into an Apple Store and was told that it would cost more to ‘fix’ it than to get a new one and they wouldn’t guarantee they could even fix it.

Adib Hanna (@adibhanna) reported[Please share this for visibility] So Apple locked me out of my Apple Store account (for Lumary) because they need even more documentation! I already gave them my Green Card, my TN ID, and everything they asked for. Terrible user experience, Apple.

Traction Avant (@citroenista) reported@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.

PaoloG 🏦 🇮🇹 (@Paul250889) reportedMost people in crypto are still chasing the next 10x narrative while completely missing what’s actually being built right now. $GARLY is building something unique and new. 99% of crypto projects that are born are larps/farms and often copy and paste just to farm and that’s it. Pure crap. People buy in FOMO projects that are only pump and dump — as we just saw with solana:HmTi3CQfKfXWbn1tNoiAxH7GzMV7L3tDAmPWabZEBAGS , which went from 4 million market cap down to 200k in just 3/4 days. Meanwhile it fades solid projects with legit teams that are developing something unique like $GARLY. $GARLY isn’t another recycled narrative. It’s the first real AI personal safety companion in crypto — privacy-first, proactive, and designed for the exact moment you can’t press a button. No other crypto project is doing this. The only real competitors are traditional companies already valued in the billions. Meanwhile the problem @appGarly is solving affects billions of people worldwide. Holders are growing every single day. The team is shipping real updates almost daily: • App submitted for final Google Play review • Apple Store (iOS) setup starting now • Jupiter verification submitted (likes needed to fast-track) • Premium version coming soon (name chosen by the community) • 30 automated test suites + 1532 checks, zero failures This is what an actual category-defining project looks like when it’s still early. Don’t sleep on it at just ~150k Mcap now. Millions are coming. $Garly 🧄💎

Jack (@jackcoder0) reportedIf this changes how you use the Apple Store or saves you $229 with an education discount you didn't know existed one ask: Repost the first post so the next person buying a MacBook at full price sees the price match, the trade-in, the free workshops, and the discount they qualify for. Follow [ @jackcoder0 ] I break down the hidden services, retail secrets, and money-saving strategies that companies bank on you not asking about. Next thread: the AppleCare+ honest math when it saves you $300 and when it wastes $269. The decision framework every Apple buyer needs before checkout.

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.
