Jack (@jackcoder0) reportedIf this changes your upgrade decision or saves you from buying the standard iPhone 18 that won't arrive until March 2027 one ask: Repost the first post so the next person planning a fall upgrade sees the 12 features landing in September before they walk into the Apple Store. Follow [ @jackcoder0 ] I break down the hidden specs, upgrade decisions, and tech strategies that companies bank on you not comparing. Next thread: iPhone 18 Pro Max vs Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra the honest 10-round comparison. Which flagship wins depends on one question nobody asks.

ZoneCrypto (@_ZoneCrypto_) reported📰 News of the day — August 16, 2026: ✦ DefiLlama has postponed its mobile app launch due to phishing apps on the Apple Store: DefiLlama's founder revealed that the company delayed its mobile app release while addressing the issue of phishing apps impersonating it on the Apple App Store. After documenting a fraudulent app draining funds from a crypto wallet, Apple promptly removed it. The founder emphasized the importance of ensuring all fake apps were eliminated to protect users from scams before the official launch of DefiLlama's app.

The Dealmaker (@harboreric) reported@TrungTPhan I remember walking into an Apple Store for the first time. It felt even emptier and more barren than this video. The staff looked almost as puzzled as the customers. Without Steve Jobs, most of us would have looked around, walked out, and called it a terrible retail concept. Vision sometimes looks ridiculous before it looks obvious.

givest (@usegivest) reportedWe finally got something from Apple that brings us one step closer. We got declined, but we only need to fix the issue and apply again. We need to add Face ID or a password to the app. After that, we should be in the Apple Store. Be ready. Givest will be the future of RWA on-chain. It’s never been this easy to send a stock. Soon, you’ll be able to send stocks like it was an SMS (like, for real).

Kings Of The South (@kots_ads1940) reportedDear @AppleSupport , I am writing to formally document my dissatisfaction with the handling of Apple Case 20000132934691 and to request that this feedback be escalated, particularly to the Project Manager and engineering team responsible for the Apple Watch software and backend systems involved in device status and pairing. My Apple Watch was previously lost, and I filed a lost-device claim through Apple’s third-party insurance provider, AIG. Approximately one or two months later, I recovered the watch. I immediately contacted AIG and had the lost claim canceled. Despite the claim being canceled, my Apple Watch still appears as lost within Apple’s backend/endpoints, and as a result, I am unable to pair the watch with my iPhone. I have done everything that could reasonably be expected of me as a customer. I contacted AIG, visited an Apple Store, and ultimately contacted Apple Support. I was then escalated to Senior Advisor Pablo, who informed me that this appears to be a bug on Apple’s side and that a bug ticket would be submitted to the appropriate engineering team. I was told I could potentially receive an update on 08-10, but I have not received one. What disappoints me most is not simply that a software bug exists. Bugs happen in software. What is unacceptable is how the consequences of this bug are being placed entirely on the customer. I have been told that I must wait for Apple’s engineering team to investigate and resolve the issue and that Apple cannot provide a refund or replacement in the meantime. In other words, an Apple software/backend defect has made my legitimately owned Apple Watch unusable, yet I am expected to simply wait indefinitely while Apple investigates its own system. That is extremely disappointing for a company that places such a strong emphasis on customer experience. From a software and quality-assurance perspective, this situation also raises serious concerns. The scenario in which a lost-device insurance claim is filed, the device is later recovered, and the claim is canceled is a completely legitimate lifecycle scenario. If canceling that claim does not correctly propagate through Apple’s systems and remove the lost status so that the device can be paired again, then an important edge/corner case was either not adequately covered during development and testing or is not being handled correctly in production. The customer should not become the final test case for a production system. Please specifically communicate this feedback to the Project Manager responsible for this area, as well as the software engineering and QA/testing teams. Because of this bug, I have been left with an Apple Watch that I own but cannot use, and instead of Apple immediately making the customer whole, I have been asked to wait for an engineering solution. At this point, even if Apple finds a technical solution, it will not change my experience or restore my confidence in the way this case has been handled. Whether this issue is resolved in three days or a thousand days is no longer the point. The damage to my trust has already been done. I expected Apple to stand behind its products when its own systems fail. Instead, I feel that I have been made to bear the consequences of a defect that I did not create and have no ability to fix. Please attach this message in full to Case 20000132934691 and ensure that my feedback is escalated to the appropriate management, engineering, and QA teams. Thank you to everyone involved in the software and testing process for providing me with an experience I genuinely never expected to have with Apple. Sincerely

Jeff Sunday (@TheDegenWeekly) reported@BookitWithTrent @PrizePicks Well I'd like to answer but both options say "decline" which leads me to think that there might be an issue with my phone so I'd take it to the Apple Store for a diagnostics check

Forest Ratchford (@Fofire3) reported@BrendanNyhan Any reason you don't take it to an apple store. This seems to be a hardware issue. Doesn't seem like you're gonna be able to fix it on your own without it.

Prof Adebayo (@ProfAdebay) reported@dhh In case you’re wondering how he set this up: Download Tailscale: creates the secure private network between both devices. Dowload Termius on playstore or apple store: the terminal app running on the Fold. SSH: connects Termius to his remote computer or VPS. Install Codex/Claude on the server: runs on the remote machine as the coding agent. The Fold is the interface; the real development environment and computing power remain on the remote machine.

critical_thinker (@hypos0v) reported@realMAG1775 Kids each have a Neo. Yes, you pay the "Apple Tax" premium but the **** just works.... I don't need to play IT guy.... If they do have issues they go into the nearest Apple Store and it's promptly taken care of. With my Dell it's endless cycles with Indian support idiots who can't even spell DELL.

System Settings (@app_settings) reported@TechWhirlUlt @Cartidise @Cartidise try an iTunes restore first the Apple Store will likely have to restore the device to run diagnostics anyway so u might as well do it urself and see if that fixes the issue

Hardik Guliani (@haaardddikkk) reportedMy 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.

Ijuakos (@IjuakosXqwzts) reported@apple, I am waiting for my refund check for the products I’ve paid inflated prices as you passed those tariffs down to your customers. Fortunately, I bought everything through the Apple Store and all the applicable transaction details should be on my account.

William AI (@wiliam23820a) reported6. Free data transfer and setup the service most buyers decline and then struggle alone. When you buy a new iPhone, iPad, or Mac at the Apple Store: the staff will transfer your data from your old device, set up the new one, and walk you through the key features. Free. Most customers say "no thanks, I'll set it up at home" then spend 3 hours figuring out data transfer, re-downloading apps, re-entering passwords, and troubleshooting iCloud sync issues. The Apple Store setup takes 20-30 minutes. They do it while you browse. They transfer contacts, photos, apps, and settings from your old device. They pair your Apple Watch. They configure Face ID. They verify iCloud backup. For seniors and less tech-savvy buyers: the in-store setup eliminates the most frustrating part of a new device. You walk in with an old phone. You walk out with a new phone fully set up, fully loaded, fully working. For Mac buyers: the staff transfers files, settings, and applications from your old Mac to the new one using Migration Assistant. Everything transfers. Even your desktop wallpaper.
