Anthony Woolf (@anthonywoolf) reportedIs it possible we are at the beginning of the end of the smartphone era? If AI is as big as it appears to be, computer and memory will flow to its applications (from datacenter to edge). This will cause price inflation for smartphones, including and perhaps especially Apple ones because Apple's edge has been ever more advanced compute (and better cameras), alongside of course amazing software. So iPhones go up in price, margins go down, and people upgrade less. Apple's strategy of on-device AI exacerbates the problem because it adds cost, but not much functionality. On device Apple models sound like the elegant and profitable way to avoid the capex-AI investment cycle bedeviling Wall Street, but it instead pushes Apple headlong into a high price, low margin winter of expensive on device AI combined with an awkward partnership with its primary competitor, Google (who seems to be losing its AI mojo as we speak). And as an aside, I had the unusual experience at the Apple Store yesterday of being upsold aggressively on Apple News+ and some business service thing I didn't want. Apple service revenue is important, but it's very tied to Apple devices (especially Apple Care). Anyways, just a thought. Not bagging on Apple, but the thought occured to me that if the competition for scarce computer and memory doesn't let up, Apple's salad days of ever more powerful iPhones at a reasonable cost may be over.

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!

rohan sogani (@rohansogani) reported@tibor_tee Although I have subscribed to grok bot, I have not been able to use it due to certain technical glitches. I subscribed to it through my iPhone Apple Store in India, as there were certain issues while subscribing through the website. Still no response from your team. Please look into it. I am so excited to use clawdbot but am not able to do it, writing from India.

Broden 🇬🇧♿✝️ (@Gavtaraysin) reported@CovidSolidarit1 Sometimes we have to tune issues out. If you can stand the audio I sometimes listen to audiobooks on either YouTube, Spotify, and BBC Sounds. I'd imagine the Apple store has audiobooks too. I just like to get my head in another world for a while 🙏

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 🧄💎

Zee Hamid (@zeeinmilton) reported@GergelyOrosz Getting Samsung to honour my warranty on my Android phone and an issue with my Lenovo laptop were both painful to get fixed. With Apple I just walk to the Apple Store. Once you start going down the Apple path, they do a really good job pulling you into the ecosystem.

JMJ333 (@sprrch) reported@Frost7 @kinocopter What? He spoke to them no problem and it wasn’t an Apple Store. Congrats you blindly believed a tweet and didn’t even listen to the audio

Jack (@jackcoder0) 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.

Makaveli (@Makaveli_14725) reported@bahatidaddy Where is the tikwallet, is it In play store or apple store... The ones we downloaded are they working fine, is there any activity going on inside there, is there any p2p with verified merchants or escrow inside there.. Bro shut ******** up and sit down

The Dealmaker (@harboreric) reported@TrungTPhan I remember walking into an Apple Store for the first time. It felt even emptier and more barren than this video. The staff looked almost as puzzled as the customers. Without Steve Jobs, most of us would have looked around, walked out, and called it a terrible retail concept. Vision sometimes looks ridiculous before it looks obvious.

RaymondMagoo2 (@RaymondMagoo2) reported@bertram_the_mom Right. Seems that way. My iPhone I had 6 years ago died maybe 1 month after paid off. Apple Store said no way to fix it!

John Saboe’s Far East Travels (@FarEast_Travels) reportedIt’s true, Tim Cook read my email in 2018 and within 24 hours directed the local Apple Store to replace my logic board. Where’s the real person to solve my issue Team?

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.
-
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.

William AI (@wiliam23820a) 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.

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.

Laura (@LauraPrince9122) reported@Ahmadansari2233 @L1enthusiast How did you get one? Are they any good my iPhone 16 pro max from the Apple Store in Liverpool has just about lasted nearly 2 years…. Front screen broken back glass smashed not worth investing in fixing again….. don’t want the ultra but is it better than pixiel fold hmm 🤔

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.
-
Mostafa Ezzat (@mostafaezztaman) reported@Apple @AppStore @AppleSupport I don't think it's professional that waiting 3 days to get a response on Apple Store Connect. This's doesn't fit Apple so far! The iOS app has been in review for almost a week and I'm keep messaging back and forth about changes has been done and still getting some issues from no where. The team reaches out ever 3 days!!! So I need someone from Apple Store Management to get this through.

Jane Slavin (@JaneSlavin) reportedThe @Apple store on regent st ‘repaired’ my daughter’s phone when she took it for a battery replacement and they BROKE it. It’s literally cracked and hot and keeps shutting down. They have offered her a new phone but only if she BUYS one. Wtf?

Eric Smith (@Eric_Smith08) reported9. He replaced the battery himself in 30 seconds — and learned the AirTag is designed to last forever. The AirTag uses a standard CR2032 coin cell battery — the same battery in most watches, calculators, and garage door remotes. Available at any pharmacy, grocery store, or gas station for $3-$5. Battery life: approximately 1 year under normal use. How to replace it: Press down on the stainless steel back of the AirTag and twist counterclockwise. The back pops off. Remove the old battery. Drop in a new CR2032 (positive side up). Twist the back on. Done. 30 seconds. No charging cable. No charging pad. No proprietary battery. No trip to the Apple Store. No subscription renewal. A $3 battery swap once a year — and the AirTag runs for another 12 months. He set a calendar reminder: "Replace AirTag batteries" once a year in January. He buys a 10-pack of CR2032 batteries for $8. He replaces all 7 AirTags in under 4 minutes. Annual maintenance cost for his entire AirTag system: $8. Compare this to competitors: Tile trackers: some models have non-replaceable batteries. When the battery dies (1-3 years), you buy a new tracker. Tile's subscription service ($3/month) adds premium features that AirTags include for free. Samsung SmartTag: replaceable battery, but runs on Samsung's Find network — roughly 200 million devices versus Apple's 2 billion. Smaller network means less accurate and less frequent location updates. Apple AirTag: $29 upfront. $3/year in batteries. $0 subscription. Access to a 2-billion-device tracking network. No expiration date. The same AirTag you buy today works in 2030, 2035, and beyond — as long as you swap a $3 battery once a year. "The AirTag doesn't expire. It doesn't need upgrading. It doesn't have a subscription. You buy it once, replace a $3 battery every January, and it protects everything you own — forever."

Anubhav (@Anubhavhing) reportedOkay this is weird. But I don't know why Apple review team is facing Purchase issue during the review. Like I have 11 testers for this app in testflight, none of them ever faced this. After I got this notif, I checked it myself again, worked flawlessly. Anyone has any ideas ?? What to check ?? I have covered the basics like rev cat config, apple store subs etc etc. But its working for everyone, all the internal and external testers. How is this possible ?

HansFritz (@Max85690) reported@Rezor_Official I downloaded the app from the Apple Store and it’s not working properly. When is the app going to be working on iOS?
