  A woman worked as an Apple Store employee for 6 years first as a Specialist on the sales floor, then as a Genius at the Genius Bar, then as a Creative leading workshops. She's helped over 20,000 customers. She said the same pattern played out every single day: a customer would walk in, buy a product, and leave. Or they'd come in with a problem, get it fixed, and leave. That was the entire interaction. In and out. "The Apple Store has free workshops that teach you photography, video editing, music production, and coding taught by trained professionals on the equipment you already own. It has a Genius Bar that runs free diagnostics, replaces batteries same-day, and fixes screens in an hour. It has a trade-in program that gives you instant credit toward a new device for phones, tablets, laptops, and watches in any condition, even broken ones. It has education pricing that saves students hundreds of dollars. It has a small business team that most business owners have never heard of. It has personal shopping appointments where a specialist builds your entire setup with you. And it has a Self Service Repair program that ships you the exact same tools Apple's own technicians use. Most customers walk in, buy AirPods, and walk out. They're treating a technology learning center like a vending machine." She said Apple Stores are the highest-revenue retail spaces per square foot in the world not because they sell expensive products, but because most customers never discover the 9 services that would make them come back every month. Here are the 9 things she wishes every Apple customer knew:

  Detroit believed a viable electric car was impossible. Elon Musk believed Tesla had to prove the industry wrong. This clip is from 2007, when Tesla was still imagining service centers that felt closer to an Apple Store than a traditional dealership. The larger goal was not simply to sell Roadsters. Musk wanted Tesla to become evidence. The technology could work. People would buy it. Electric cars could be desirable instead of feeling like a compromise. He also explains why selling Tesla to an established automaker would have slowed the mission down. Incumbents usually ask whether a strange new product fits the existing business. Startups can ask whether the existing business deserves to survive.

  @DylanMcD8 I remember the first time I saw this phone. Wasn't convinced to get it until I saw a friend who had it face down on a table and asked him what that was. Within an hour I was at the Apple store getting ready to shelf my Palm Treo which I had just recently switched to from a BB.

  As great as the iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 betas have been, the watchOS 27 beta is atrocious. Siri doesn’t work for HoneKit controls and it’s super slow for checking weather and other things compared to iOS and iPadOS 27. I might have to take a trip to the Apple Store to revert my watch back.

  @IrrelevantNerd @beautyskillz Digital movies are very different so no, it's not the same. This is long but it'll help people understand. There's two different versions of digital movies you can buy/get. There's the ones you get from Fandango At Home, Movies Anywhere, Microsoft Store, formerly the PlayStation Store, Apple Store, Google Play Store, etc. These are the ones you have a limited license to VIEW on those platforms only. When you read the EULA for those you'll see it tells you that you own nothing. You just have a license to view it on that platform. Meaning, if that platform goes away? You'll lose access and they have no real obligation to refund you or move platforms for you. That's what you agree to every time they do that. Movie licenses are subject to renewal, gaming licenses are one and done. Renewing the license every few years is what those third party companies do on your behalf. If they can't get it done they lose access which, in turn, means you lose access. The other version of digital movies? You DO own it. Fully. I'll explain it. These digital movies are movies you get directly from the studios that distributed it. Meaning, you bought the DVD or Blu-Ray and the digital code it came with, you used it. You got a code directly from their website store. Or, you got gifted a code or won a code from them or a third party that got the codes from them directly. With that? Once you redeem that code, that movie is yours to keep on one of those platforms I mentioned earlier. Forever. If a platform you bought a code and put your paid movie on goes out of business? They have an obligation to either find you another locker (they use this term for the other digital platforms they house the movies) to store the movie on, or they HAVE to let you download the movies to your personal storage. All of this is in their EULAs. I hope you read it all to get a better understating of the difference between movies and games EULA. A game is never going to get taken from you unless you do one of two things. You break TOS, or you call them and tell them you don't want the license any longer. Also in their EULA. Even if they no longer exist as a company you still own your games digitally. They'll leave you to download them or leave them attached to your username on your consoles. They will not shut down the usernames just because they don't exist as a company. They will keep the agreement in place. That's just how it works. Again, I know this is a long read, but it's very informative.

  @Assurant I use my phone for work & this has cost me dividends & impacted me negatively. I’m getting the run around with replacing my iPhone 16 pro & I’ve paid you for coverage for well over a year. I visited the Apple Store diagnostics can’t detect the issue. Replace my device

  @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 🙏

  My 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.

  @grok Already did but ... I have a bad feeling about this. If all I need to do is downgrade back to SuperGrok and then upgrade immediately to SuperGrok Plus that's fine, I just need someone to tell me that's the official fix, I don't feel like experimenting and messing up my account. I actually do not need the $30/mo SuperGrok because I have SuperGrok through my X Premium+ account charged through the Apple store... But if I flat out just *cancel* Heavy I'm afraid I will lose all my stuff!

  // Just a heads up to my close moots, I have tech issues with my phone again so I will be away from answering on my phone at least for a while, since I will be using a loaner and sending in my phone to get fixed by my local apple store. I had issues with it earlier this year

  Thank you bro. That 128 gb storage on 16 Pro was absolutely chaotic , so a change was necessary. I always had full storage and I was deleting and downloading the same apps every day. My Dad got an iPhone 17 in mist blue as well, , trading in my old 16 Pro at the Apple Store for $925 aud. Got the full value for it, despite having some deep scratches. iPhone 17 was $1399 aud, after the Trade In, it was $474 aud. This iPhone Air was his for the last 4 months. But now he transferred everything to that 17 , so this Air is mine. I did an iCloud backup , and have iOS 27 beta running on this iPhone Air in Sky Blue. I could have chosen the 17, but I wanted a unique iPhone, and so far I don’t really have an issue with it. I wish 0.5x camera and better battery life , but it’s amazing and beautiful iPhone. The 12 gb ram with the best Siri and expressive voices is amazing so far. It’s like my silver cellular 11 inch M5 iPad Pro with both having C1X cellular and N1 Wifi/Bluetooth/Thread chips — the phone and tablet feel like twins. For now, Air is a “temporary-relief” iPhone mainly for storage. If the iPhone 18 Pro interests me, then I might get that, and give this Air to my mom. She needs an iPhone as well. currently has Pixel 7 Or if the iPhone Air is okay, might as well wait for the 20th anniversary iPhone. Or my dad might get the foldable iPhone Ultra, and give the 17 to my mom. Time will tell. Interesting times ahead such as the new HomePod, Apple TV with AI, MacBook Pro/Ultra with OLED screen etc.

  I just poured juice into my MacBook. It wasn't a lot, but enough to worry. Dried off, tent mode. You know what's really annoying about modern MacBooks? They turn on after the slightest touch of any key. The power button is touch-sensitive (no physical "push" needed). The thing turned on 6 times on the way home. Local shop in Bangkok won't fix it (it voids warranty). Not enough time for bringing it to the Apple Store (I leave in 3 days). There's an authorized shop in Da Nang, but it takes ~3 weeks (according to reviews). I leave after 2.5. After that I'm in Korea. No issue there, but it's 3 weeks after the incident. Apparently juice is the worst (corrosion). I always drink black coffee ... the one day I don't 😣 The upside: I have AppleCare+. It's covered no matter how far the corrosion proceeds, and what breaks. Also, I have my old MacBook Air. I can keep working. Kind of weird timing after my recent posts (see quoted). It'll be fine, but damn it's stressful. It's nice to be able to scream "liquid on keyboard, new branch, push everything, quick" at your agents. They really did hurry. Now I can continue working. </life-update>

  If 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.

  So I asked the Apple Store technician the same question again: "Do these settings activated by default really protect the user... or are they slowly wearing down the device?" He didn't have an answer. But every iPhone he checked that day had exactly the same 2 options ACTIVATED. Silently heating up in their owners' pockets.

  @bunburyoudoujp Yea im american, and i was raised there and in japan. Wheres the problem. I downloaded x on an american iphone that i bought in america and took the phone to japan, why would i make another apple account? you cant merge them, are you daft? Lose 15 years of movies, apps and music just to have a japanese iphone? there is literally no point. Or did you not also know that if i had purchased an iphone at the shinjuku apple store last month, id still be logging into my american account ive had for 25 years which would open the North American app store because thats where my bank is based, and it would say... connected via north american app store. And since I have netflix and multiple other american services i need a... vpn connected to america, so making this account isnt very hard when you have 2 phone numbers 2 banks and a vpn and and iphone from japan or america LMFAO. Yawl dont even know that that feature was just put there to confuse you idiots evenmore, lull you into a false sense of security that you know who youre talking to. Make you think theres transparency here and you arent talking to some op. Anyways lol "I HAVE PR" stomp stomp stomp. congrats, your fees are still up there and it still has to be renewed which allllllllways means you could be on the chopping block each and every year. And with the way things are going, maybe next year. You didnt naturalize, you made the poor choice of going PR. Youre vulnerable

  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.
