    @C_inspecto @EricSpracklen @Apple I've had an iPhone 5, 6, and 7. I've also had a Galaxy S3, two S8's, and now have an S22. Hands down, Androids are far better if not only for the easy of use and the fact that they're not chained to the Play Store like iPhones are to the Apple Store.

    @apple @AppleSupport Dear Apple Support / Customer Relations, My name is Yukita, and I am contacting you on behalf of my friend in Japan regarding a serious unresolved issue with Apple Japan. My friend previously had his iPhone repaired at an Apple Store in Japan. However, the repair appears not to have been completed properly, and the iPhone later suffered water damage and is now unusable. He contacted Apple Japan regarding the issue, but he was told that he would need to travel to Tokyo so that Apple could determine whether the damage was caused by him or was related to the previous repair. He does not live in Tokyo, and traveling there would cost him more than USD 100. More importantly, he currently cannot use his iPhone at all. I have already contacted Apple Support in the United States, but I was told that they could not assist because the device and customer are located outside the United States. We understand that Apple needs to inspect the device to determine the cause of the problem. However, we do not understand why he must personally travel to Tokyo, especially when the issue may be related to an incomplete or improper repair performed by Apple. Because the phone is currently unusable, he has already suffered additional losses, including access to important photos and data, backups, and transportation-related funds stored on the device that cannot be refunded. We are therefore requesting that Apple escalate this matter and provide a practical solution that does not require him to travel to Tokyo at his own expense. For example, we would appreciate an inspection at a closer Apple Store or authorized service location, or another arrangement that allows the device to be evaluated as soon as possible. This matter is urgent because he currently has no usable phone. Please review this case and contact us as soon as possible. We would sincerely appreciate Apple’s assistance in resolving this matter fairly and promptly. Regards, Yukita

    African AI has an economy problem. We don’t have an Apple Store in Nigeria. We don’t have that kind of purchase power. Until we create proper consumer purchasing power we will just be renting ambition from foreign capital. Data is where we are and we need to do that well to get to the next level.

    Just wanted to share an update regarding this issue. I spoke with one of Apple's Senior Advisors in Indonesia, and they explained that my replacement request couldn't be approved because Indonesia doesn't have an Apple Store—only Apple Authorized Service Provider. The Apple Authorized Service Provider denies to replace my phone. They suggested that I visit an Apple Store in Singapore or Malaysia instead, as those are the closest countries to me with official Apple Stores, and they should be able to replace my phone there. Will I fly to Singapore or Malaysia just for a replacement? Definitely not. Plane tickets aren't cheap these days. I'll treat this as a lesson learned, and hopefully it can be a lesson for you guys too—especially if you live in Indonesia or another country without an Apple Store. Do I blame Apple? No. They actually offered to replace my phone from the very beginning, but I chose not to accept it. That said, I really wish Apple would open an official Apple Store here in Indonesia.

    Your iPhone has shortcuts Apple never told you about. You've owned it for years and used maybe two of them. A former Apple Store Genius who spent 5 years teaching customers how to use their phones said the same thing happened every day: a customer would come in with a problem that a built-in shortcut already solved. Editing text. Undoing mistakes. Scanning documents. Switching apps. Selecting multiple items. All solvable with a gesture nobody taught them. "Apple builds shortcuts into every corner of iOS and never puts them on the box. There's no tutorial. There's no pop-up tip. There's no guided walkthrough. You either discover them by accident, hear about them from a friend, or use your phone for 5 years without knowing your keyboard is a trackpad, your back panel is a button, and three fingers can undo anything." He said most iPhone owners interact with their phone the slow way tapping, scrolling, switching between apps one at a time when a gesture, a shortcut, or a hidden feature could do the same thing in half the time. "You're doing 40 taps a day that could be 10. The shortcuts are already on your phone. Nobody showed you." Here are the 9:

    Still struggling. I need to create releases for 3 apps on the Apple Store, fix releases on Google Play, fix the web hook for RankGoat to create posts for my business, integrate the eBay API for inventory management in CAUN, test CoinTrade, finish the TubeBinder MVP, and make 1.5B. When will I get it done if I do nothing?

    🚨 #BREAKING : The @telegram app has just been removed from the @Apple store. It had been removed because it had made "inappropriate content" available to users, founder Pavel Durov said. The removal came soon after Telegram launched an unfinished version of its "experimental" Telegram X app. Apple took down both the official messaging app and the one still being worked on.

    Bought an #iPhone17Pro from the official Apple Store, Borivali on 29 June using an HDFC credit card EMI. Two weeks later, the EMI still hasn’t been processed. HDFC says they never received the instructions. Apple Store says it’s HDFC’s issue. 1/2

    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

    I have to say, Apple's payment system has some serious issues.@AppleSupport When I tried to apply my $100 account balance to a checkout order on the Apple Store, the credit was applied correctly. I am trying to purchase four AirTags for same-day delivery, which requires me to pay an additional $15. The system gave me several payment options: Apple Card, Visa, or Apple Pay. I tried every single one of those options. Even though I correctly entered all of my personal information and billing address, I kept receiving the same error message: "Your payment authorization failed. Please verify your information and try again, or try other payment methods." Furthermore, I encountered several front-end bugs during the checkout process, such as misaligned icons. There was also an issue where the Apple Pay interface would open but remain completely blank. I would like the Apple team to look into these issues.

    @VicVijayakumar You still have to pay full price for the replacement until the broken iPhone is shipped back. I think it’s more economical to go to an Apple Store and pay $99 for a swap.

    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.
