  The Ultimate Takeaway: Taking Back Your Phone She walked out of the Apple Store at 2:45 PM. Her wallet was exactly as full as when she walked in. Her battery was at 82%. And for the first time in six months, she didn't feel a knot in her stomach about finding a wall plug. The Situation: We almost always blame the physical battery. We think our phones are just getting old, or broken, or that we simply use them too much. We accept living in a constant state of low-battery anxiety, carrying heavy power banks and tangled white cables everywhere we go like we are carrying life support. The System Reality: When you take a brand new smartphone out of the box, it is not actually set up to serve you. It is set up by default to serve app developers, advertisers, and the parent company. It is set up to constantly pull data, refresh feeds, track your location, and report back to base. The Technical Drain: Think about it: you are spending over a thousand dollars on a device, but out of the box, that device is working a full-time, 24/7 shadow job behind your back. It is burning through its own life span and your battery percentage to do things you never even asked it to do. The Fix: Take 12 minutes today to walk through these settings. Turn off the background noise. Shut down the silent trackers. Put up boundaries. Tell your apps they are only allowed to work when you physically tap on them and ask them to work. The Result: Two weeks later, the woman went to bed at 11:00 PM. She placed her phone on her nightstand to charge for the night. The screen lit up: 34%. This is not just about saving your battery life. It is about taking back ownership of your device. It is about getting a clear peace of mind and making sure you own your phone, instead of letting your phone own you.

  So it turns out my phone charging problem is actually the charger itself, which is also my laptop charger, and then confounding factor that my car charger is also a bit dodgy in its own way bahaha so… I begrudgingly have to go to the Apple Store and buy a new one.

  @gharkekalesh If you are ready to buy iPhone for ₹1,00,000 then better buy from official Apple store or their official website. Customer service will definitely be hundred times better if any problem arises

  A Virtual card saves you from 30-50% tax in each payment.. (Yearly upto 1k$ save!!!) Here is the full view :: I've tried to buy @claudeai's max 20x plan that is for 200$ In my Android app it shows 33.75k BDT= 275$~ Reason : Gpay is legal in my country,so the govt + google play store are taking this 30%~ together In my Iphone is shows 999 AED= 271$~ Reason : Apple store taking 30% tax as per their rules, Moreover Apple Pay is not legal into my country yet, so i use UAE apple id where tax is only 5% for this, If my country govt legal this, they will surely take more 15% like gpay! So it will add more 30$+ when it become legal... At Claude website from any device it shows 200$+ Tax Here tax means it depends on which Countries Visacard you are using to pay! As virtual cards are not registered into any countries bank & as the diposite in card can be done via crypto We are safe from the Tax & etc etc issue Means fixed 200$ i have to give & a single penny wont be waste into Google pay or Apple pay or govt. Tax~ So,, use any trusted company's virtual card & Purchase from website,, Congrates , You are saving 30-50% in every usage...

  @ZunairaAi It sounds frustrating to deal with persistent storage issues despite taking all the right steps. I hope the Apple store was able to help find a solution.

  She is so distracted,******* bored actually. She wasn’t looking for trouble, yesterday. “I was just standing there,in an Apple store, USA,and got hit in the face for no reason at all .” What happened next?? Is it in social media? Public fights are normal,nowadays.Weird.

  Reclaiming Your Device The man walked out of the Apple Store that afternoon with his original battery still inside his phone and his eighty nine dollars still safely tucked into his pocket. A week later, he sent the Genius Bar worker a short message. He was finishing his entire work day with forty percent of his battery still remaining. He had not touched the Low Power Mode button a single time. We have somehow accepted a strange reality where we think our expensive modern devices just naturally degrade in a few short months. But the truth is much simpler than that. Tech companies design these phones to constantly harvest data, build their corporate networks, and serve their massive ecosystems silently in the background. They are actively using your hardware and your battery life to do their heavy lifting. Stop letting your own phone work against you. Take fifteen minutes tonight, sit down on the couch, and go through this list. You bought the phone to serve you, so make absolutely sure it actually does.

  Malko has officially been ReJECTeD by Apple Store for guideline 4.3 as spam. After going through all the five stages of grief, I did some research and realised contesting this decision will only bring flagging to my dev account. Only way forward is to change the concept of the app, perhaps turn it into something specifically for far in postpartum moms, a lot of whom have these issues. I’m currently parking this project until the vision becomes clearer to me. I will take the L. It’s a loss of a couple of months of work. I will continue working on Jodu and pick up one of my other ideas to work on for my next project.

  @Nibiru1000 I got a gas station down the street owned by Indians and I swiped my card in there one time and a few days later I had a bunch of random charges from an Apple Store, we don’t have an apple store in my area. They are lowlifes.

  PS a few days ago we actually went to Rimowa Copenhagen to fix the previous cracks (in quote tweet) They brushed us off and said they couldn't help us and we'd have to get it fixed in Lisbon where we bought it Which is funny cause if I break my MacBook Pro, I can literally bring it into any official Apple Store anywhere and they'll fix it Or if I lose my debit card, Revolut will send me a new one anywhere in the world and it'll arrive in a day or so! The point of service is especially when it's a suitcase, you're probably traveling when it breaks, and you want to either get it fixed or get a temporary replacement while yours get fixed, so you can keep traveling That's what I mean with premium luxury service that I'm happy to pay a lot for!

  Omnicris (@Omnicris) reported 46 minutes ago

  Yeah, it could, but it won't. People steal things that are locked down all the time. I mean, even the Apple Store display models get stolen all the time, and those have a special version of iOS that runs on them, so you can't do anything with them anyway; they're paperweights. My concern is the ability for Apple, or any tech company for that matter, to be able to remotely disable a device, whether you are a criminal or not.

  His iPhone battery health dropped to 78% after just 1 months of use. He took it to the Apple Store expecting a free battery replacement under warranty. The Genius Bar technician ran every diagnostic. The battery passed every test. The phone wasn't defective. Then she said something he wasn't expecting: "This battery isn't broken. It's been worn down. There are 8 default settings on your iPhone right now that are aging the battery faster than they should and they're all on by default. Apple ships every iPhone with them enabled. Most customers come in here thinking the battery is bad. It's not. The settings are." He asked the obvious question: "Why doesn't Apple turn them off by default?" She didn't answer. She just opened Settings and started walking him through them. Here's everything she showed him in the next 10 minutes. 🧵

  The uncomfortable truth: Apple's business model rewards storage anxiety. The more often customers see "Storage Almost Full," the more likely they are to: 1. Pay for iCloud subscriptions 2. Upgrade to higher-storage models 3. Buy a new iPhone entirely Every default setting on a new iPhone trends in the direction of consuming more storage, not less. The 7 fixes above take 10 minutes total. They cost nothing. They will recover an average of 40-60 GB on most iPhones over 12 months old. The Apple Store employee said one more thing before he left: "We see this every day. Most people don't even check Settings → General → iPhone Storage before they walk in. They just assume the phone is too small for them. It almost never is." RT this so more iPhone users stop spending $1,000 on a storage problem that could be solved with 7 toggles.

  A man noticed his iPhone kept showing “Storage Almost Full,” even though he barely had any photos. He deleted apps. Cleared messages. Removed downloads. But the warning kept coming back every couple of weeks. At one point, he was ready to walk into the Apple Store and buy a new iPhone. A Genius Bar employee stopped him and said: “Before you spend a thousand dollars, let me show you something.” She opened: Settings → General → iPhone Storage Then she shook her head and said: “There are 7 hidden things quietly eating your storage. They come turned on by default, and most people never notice them.” In the next few minutes, she showed him things like cached data, system files, old message attachments, background app storage, and other hidden space users don’t usually check. Within 8 minutes, everything became clear: The phone wasn’t the problem. The hidden storage usage was. And just like that… he didn’t need a new iPhone anymore.

  I don't know. I'm sure it's pretty, but this looks like an Apple Store on wheels. Where are the physical controls? I'll take real engineering that solves real problems. My two cents.

  I love when I plug my iphone in to charge on the charger I bought at the Apple Store only for my phone to tell me this charger is a slow charger
