Taras Kindrat | anothervision.xyz (@kindrat_taras) reportedThe service checked it and said the machine is dead due to a technical issue. Since it wasn’t bought from an official Apple Store, the warranty coverage is only 1 year, and local regulations don’t seem to cover premium devices beyond that. Any ideas who I should contact?

🪽𝔼𝕧𝕖 🪽 (@wonderful_eve) reported@susuremaseduh Yes I’m really disappointed to still see it at 4.6 stars in the Apple Store.. people need to not only email them and respond to their satisfaction survey but bomb them with negative reviews to tell other people not to download until they fix things and to get NE’s attention.

Scott Morris (@RobinRedFox) reported@learning_yohei Speaking for myself, I prefer Android phones. I had Apple for a few years and when it came time to get a new phone, I had gotten tired of them breaking down all the time. Because if they broke down, you could only get it fixed at an Apple store..

Caleb Hull (@CalebJHull) reportedThe Apple store used to be all nerds that could fix any problem you could ever have in a heartbeat. What happened? It’s all clueless retail employees now.

elev8tor guy (@Elev8torG68249) reported@DecodingPoliti2 @nypost Yup. The finger is pointed at everyone but the true problem. They blame the union for the apple store leaving. They blame Amazon on the mall closing. They blame white people for their neighborhoods and personal residence being in shambles. Everyone else. Its our fault

Smoke Showing (@StrikeAnother1) reportedI’ve been dealing with an iPhone issue on my daughter’s phone for months, including multiple attempts through their customer service and multiple visits to the @Apple store. I’ve just been sent on circles over and over and over. I’m currently sitting here in the Apple Store (for the third time) in as many months and have basically been abandoned while they help someone else. Their customer service has been horrendous and I am so frustrated!

As a further courtesy, I'll give you one week from tomorrow (Which will be 5/8/26) to issue a refund to me and properly label the items in your app's store. After that, I will report the violating lootbox mechanics on both the Play store and the Apple store. 8/8

Ayushi Thoughts (@CleverlyChic) reportedAs a non Apple fan, I’m generally against using Apple products but I love them for this. When Apple created their in-store tech support, they had the option to call it anything like tech support, customer service or help desk. But they chose to call it the Genius Bar and the people who work there are considered geniuses. Most people think it’s just a marketing tactic but watch what happens when you call someone a genius. They start acting like one. When you walk into an Apple Store, they don’t just try to fix your phone. They solve your problem. They care about your experience. Words don’t describe people, they define them. 🙌

aviral10𝕏 (@aviral10x) reportedIn 2017, I walked into an Apple Store with my cousins to see the iPhone X. I was 14. My sister was 12. My brother was 10. The guard stopped us at the door. Looked us up and down. Told us to come back with our parents. We walked away. Three kids, heads down, through that long mall corridor. That night I couldn’t sleep. Not because I was angry but because I made a promise to myself. Over the next few years, I taught myself to code. Started trading. Entered hackathons and won them. Landed internships. Built a public profile. All of this without even finishing college. I eventually dropped out because the real world was teaching me faster. I traveled to 6 countries. Worked with people I once only followed online. And one by one, I bought every Apple product I once dreamed of holding. From the same store that wouldn’t let me in. But here’s the part nobody talks about, after getting everything I wanted, I sat at my desk surrounded by all of it, and something still felt missing. The hunger that started in that mall corridor? It never leaves. The devices were never the destination. They were just proof that the kid who got turned away kept walking forward. Still walking. Still hungry.
