  @Apple @AppleSupport you guys need to fix this rubbish issue with the AirPods 4. My pods keeps dropping and reconnecting from my device and I’ve taken it to the Apple Store three times now! It’s getting ridiculous!!!

  The biggest challenge for all consumer apps is acquiring users at the lowest cost. Sweatcoin was having the same issue before it exploded with new users. It was able to acquire users with traditional paid ads, but its CPI would always remain high. Sweatcoin's growth stayed linear until it decided to try a new strategy. And that strategy was mass UGC marketing. Sweatcoin partnered with creators and created organic feeling content. High volume testing of viral hooks and formats. It took these winning viral pieces of content and turned them into Spark Ads. UGC powered paid media. Sweatcoin never had to burn ad spend by guessing on creatives when the creatives were already proven to convert and get engagement. Sweatcoin 10x'd it's ROAS using this viral content made by creators. Hiring tons of creators and ad spend sounds costly, but in reality, Sweatcoin was able to lower its CPI by 53%. In fact, on Apple Store Sweatcoin had the lowest CPI possible. 60 million users acquired. And it all started with one shift in thinking. Mass UGC + UGC powered paid media = 📈 🚀 user acquisition Stop guessing on creatives. Let the market tell you what works. Then put money behind what's already proven. Organic tests it. Paid scales it. Simple as that.

  @maye23musk32 @Elonmarsmusk12 My phone is not working well, I have made a list to follow-it is all Apple controlled things. Hopefully tomorrow. The Genius Bar at the Apple store was no help. I can’t transfer it to a new phone until I get it solved or I will simply have a new phone that only half works.

  I have at least one theory concerning that, and it all boils down to passing the buck. The companies insuring these lootboxes for Nvidia will likely insist upon installing some sort of odious security measures in the hardware. Much like the store model iPhones at the Apple store.

  @P_Kallioniemi @NersFalco @Kolas_Yotaka Good luck doing this with iPhones. The issues is - many of ruZZian bots have Apple Store in their profile.

  12. The "Location-Based Alerts & Apple Ads" The Situation: You assume that seeing targeted ads is just the unavoidable cost of using the internet, and that occasional alerts from your phone are harmless and normal. The System Reality: Apple positions itself as a privacy-first company, but they still have a massive advertising business. Your phone is actively tracking your location, crossing digital geofences, and analyzing your proximity to retail locations to serve you geographically relevant Apple Store ads and location-based suggestions. The Technical Drain: Geofencing is expensive for a battery. The phone has to constantly calculate its distance from invisible barriers to know when to trigger an alert. It’s using your battery power to figure out how to market products to you more effectively. The Fix: Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → System Services → Toggle off "Location-Based Alerts", "Location-Based Suggestions", and "Apple Merchant ID". The Result: You completely sever the connection between your GPS hardware and Apple's internal marketing algorithms. You stop burning battery to get advertised to.

  I think it's way deeper than cost efficiency. Several Apple employees have talked to me over the years about "Apple scale." If you go and sit in an Apple Store and watch people taking a class, there are many Apple customers who are still learning how to use the camera on their phone. When they roll new technology into the Apple platform, it has to work for everybody, not just the nerds. I think that's mostly what he's saying: this technology is still too hard to use and too freaky for normal everyday people, and it brings new service problems to Apple. There is a cost efficiency part to it, of course, but it's really about making products that work at Apple scale. And how many users does that involve? Billions, right?

  @yonann I can go into an Apple Store and they will help me with problems in person for free most of the time. Microsoft closed all its retail stores in my area.

  I feel like buying directly from the Apple Store gives you a better chance of getting a top-quality device. All my iPhones have been carted straight from the Apple Store, and my iPhone 15 and 17 are still at 100% battery health. Even my iPhone 11, which I’ve been using since 2019, is only down to 86% battery health.

  @cmsj @aidler @ivanfioravanti Bcs of a person has bought iPhone and cannot afford to buy a new smartphone less than 4 or more 5 years after, this person should be protected. For example apple store is a rediculous issue. It was forcing small companies or even individuals to pay big tax to apple for no reason

  @dhans4all @ravikchandar @Vijaylocopilot Better take it to the Apple Store, they might change it free of charge. Recently I had done it for an iPhone 13(particular batch had quality issues with battery)
