Ling Qing Meng (@LingqingM) reportedJust got an official Apple Store Keyboard with the fingerprint reader. The thing with Macbooks is that the moment you lose AppleCare for them and the keyboard breaks, there is ZERO way to fix said keyboard. (Hidden secret of Macbook keyboard explaining why in comments) So when at home use your peripherals you extend the life of your on-laptop keyboard when you obviously have to use it when traveling.

G-Lanser (@G_Lanser) reported@Clintwestwood97 @mrpyo1 That’s not a Sony problem necessarily. It’s how things have evolved (e.g. some games are no longer available on the Apple Store). There may be a happy middle solution. I have 100s of physical games. And I’m kind of over it. Too much space. Im a little relieved to be honest.

EMZY GADGETS 📱 💻 🔌 (@EmzyGadgets) reportedNo be you go teach me phone business or talking about 13 pro max because you be dealer too. Which one is I don’t import the ones with original screen ? If you like buy 13 pro max from Apple Store by yourself, it’ll still hit the green screen if it’ll do. This is the general issue about the iPhone 13 Pro Max globally. This has nothing to do with refurbished or original stock. You’re the one probably buying a refurbished phone. I import my stock from Canada and USA directly from legit suppliers. Like I’ve said before, it is not all 13 pro max that do comes with the screen issue, because even the ones I sold from last 2 years to last year. The earliest complain I received from someone is after 8 months of usage. 13 pro also has screen issues, but the ones I sold to customers from my stocks has never had any screen issue up to date, but does that mean 13 pro also does not have screen issue? I don’t like it when vendors comes to manage and spit trash. Go and post it on your own page that iPhone 13 Pro Max doesn’t have screen issue at all then sell it out all.

GazaEnterprise (@GazaEnterprise) reportedApple Is Testing AI Powered 'Live Notes' to Streamline Genius Bar Appointments. Apple is testing a new artificial intelligence feature called Live Notes, designed to make Genius Bar appointments more efficient for both customers and Apple Store employees. Instead of a Genius Bar employee manually writing down everything discussed during a repair appointment, Live Notes uses AI to listen to the conversation and generate a transcript in real time. The feature only works if both the customer and the employee give their consent, making it an opt-in system rather than something that's enabled automatically. Once the conversation is finished, the AI generated transcript is saved directly to the employee's iPad and becomes part of the repair record. This creates a detailed log of what was discussed, including the customer's description of the issue, troubleshooting steps, recommendations, and any repair decisions made during the appointment. The biggest advantage is that employees can spend more time interacting with customers instead of constantly typing or taking handwritten notes. Rather than dividing their attention between the customer and their iPad, they can focus on diagnosing the problem, answering questions, and explaining repair options while the AI handles the documentation in the background. For customers, this could also lead to more accurate repair records. Important details are less likely to be forgotten or recorded incorrectly, which can help if a customer returns for a follow-up visit or if another Apple technician needs to continue the repair later. Having a complete transcript ensures everyone has access to the same information. The feature also has the potential to improve efficiency across Apple's retail stores. By automating notetaking, Genius Bar appointments may move faster, employees could handle more customers throughout the day, and the quality of documentation could become more consistent across different locations. Although Apple is currently testing Live Notes in only some stores, it reflects the company's broader strategy of integrating AI into everyday services. Rather than using AI only for consumer-facing features, Apple is also exploring ways it can streamline internal workflows and improve the overall customer experience. If the trial proves successful, Live Notes could eventually become a standard feature at Genius Bars worldwide.

Virtually Fun (@virtuallyfun) reported@JMW_BOYZ The problem is that in places like here we have voices and the absolute fraction of us that comment seem to think in one certain way. I love going to CeX and buying bags full of DvD's for a buck a pop. I picked up a PS1/PS3/XboxOG and have a mountain of old games that I used to play or want to play for mere fraction of the price. But those are brick and mortar with things like rent/employees/insurance/utilities. Massive overhead. The real truth is that it's pretty clear CeX gets the majority of their stuff for nothing or close to it, with a lot of 'new' stuff being overstock/damage from high street retail. Physical media has been dying for ages, and I get it. I have a massive amount in steam. When I had lost everything I physically owned it was so nice to login to steam, and still retain everything. The larger issue is that Valve is the outlyer, I don't think people would mind so much if it wasn't for megacorps like SONY who treat a 'sale' more like a decade rental. Even my Apple store stuff is mostly all gone now. Funny how people don't cry about that one.

Steve Jabs (@SteveJabs) reported@DisneyScoopGuy Honestly the hourly call center support dude (or dudette) doesn’t know **** all. Ask for a higher tier of support and that you’re willing to wait for a call back or go through email if need be. Also a good time to visit an Apple Store as someone there will have incentive to fix it for you and not just get you off the phone.

Georgi (@GotinGeorgiG) reported@seckincreatives @aandreug @framer But why's that a problem, see the Apple Store for instance - it's the absolutely same system, there are millions of apps, most of them are buried and nobody cares for them, let the market decide what works and why. We're in 2026 and marketing and product go hand in hand, there's no way around that, the old way was outdated, so they changed it, my templates are buried as well, but that's no reason to cry just work harder and adapt to what's new.

Kossiso Udodi Royce (@kossisoroyce) reportedAfrican 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.

ThatMedChidi👩🏽⚕️🩺💓 (@chidi_jenny) reportedWent to @Apple store in Arndale to diagnose/fix my screen that’s been going dark & they told me the screen & battery were done for & it’ll cost like 600 quid to fix; advised me to get a new one instead 😩. In the meantime I’ll just keep connecting it to my TV w/ HDMI 😩😭😭😭.

Cameron Hogan (@thecameronhogan) reportedMost customer service conversations were never actually about the problem. A surprising number happen for one reason. People are lonely. We have all felt the edge of this. A stretch of days without real connection… And suddenly the cashier, the barista, the receptionist, the person on the help line… Feel strangely important. In 2020, a grocery run became the highlight of the week. A few words with a stranger landed like a feast. We were not shopping. We were starving for contact. Now carry that same hunger into ordinary life. The answer is on Google. The fix takes thirty seconds. The issue is small enough to solve alone. And still… We call. We wait on hold. We drive there in person. Because the problem was never really the problem. The contact was. I saw this clearly standing in an Apple store one afternoon. A man frustrated that his seven-year-old phone was not as loud as it used to be. Around him… A dozen more carrying problems just as small. Tiny inconveniences held up like emergencies. Each one quietly purchasing a few minutes near another human being. Those were not technology problems. They were connection problems. People reaching for human contact… Using the only doorway that felt socially acceptable. A broken phone gives us permission to be cared for. Loneliness does not. And this is what happens when a need goes unmet for too long. It starts disguising itself. Not manipulation. Not selfishness. Just an unmet human need… Looking for the nearest warm signal the only way it knows how. And it usually lands on whoever is paid to stay patient. Service workers absorb this all day. Hours of other people's quiet loneliness… Arriving disguised as complaints they cannot actually solve. Because the real ache was never on the work order. Which means much of what we call customer service… Is not actually a customer service problem. It is loneliness… Quietly rerouted through the one interaction people could justify having. So the real fix was never better support. Or shorter wait times. Or more efficient systems. It is connection… That does not have to be manufactured. Because when people feel genuinely seen in everyday life… A thousand invented problems quietly disappear. Along with the weight they place on everyone paid to carry them.

mkb (@mkbraudaway) reported@FloreFlos Smart move. I had an issue w/cell service. Went to get it resolved & the employee literally referred me to the Apple Store to fix an issue THEY created. 🤯I went back on a diff day & told the manager. Said I was in cust serv for a very long time & I was mortified. He was too.

Rafael Torres ᯅ (@mundoxrbrasil) reported@JonOrcera I’d recommend taking it to an Apple Store. Remote support usually isn’t very helpful with this kind of issue. This comes up fairly often on Reddit. Mine had wear on both the battery side and the Vision Pro connector, and Apple ended up replacing the cable. Now I’m just waiting for my next trip so I can use AppleCare for the front glass crack on my Vision Pro, even though it’s never been dropped. 🥹

jabbermay (@jabbermay) reported@keepindeepspace 2024 & 2025 VIP as well and I'll be sending a similar message tomorrow. I've already begun the refund process through Google Play Store and they said they're collecting data on developer issues like this, so I encourage you to reach out to them (or Apple Store) as well.
