Eric Smith (@Eric_Smith08) reportedA 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:
-
Matteo (@matteodotsui) reported@vibhu Let me ask you a question @vibhu I got to know you via Solana Spaces. Those beautiful, minimalistic physical stores that gave out Apple Store vibes and sadly ended up closing down. Looking back, what made you conclude those were a mistake?

YPG4⚡ (@ypg4anderson) reported@ShishirShelke1 Now iPhone X user go to Apple Store try to fix it and Apple employee force iPhone X User to upgrade to new iPhone
-
Champs ♞ (@_champs4) reportedTelegram will be back on the Apple store, It's a little glitch from the App store team.
-
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.

Uniquesmau 🟩 (Almost-My-Turn) (@Thisis_Smau) reported@Coinvo Could it be the cause of it taken down by Apple Store?

Mt phone Fix planets (@mtphonefix) reportediPhone Repair in 30 Minutes or Less! Cracked screen? Battery issues? We fix iPhones fast with genuine Apple parts. Most repairs completed while you wait at our Albany location. Quality service without the Apple store price tag. #iPhoneRepairAlbany #FastRepairs
-
Sniffer (@snifferrrrrr) reported@devops_nk I had the same issue on my mbp m4. The official Apple Store diagnosed it as a motherboard failure. My warranty had expired, so it costed me 68k to repair. Since yours is still under warranty, I’d recommend taking it to Apple instead of trying temporary fixes.

Eric Smith (@Eric_Smith08) reportedHere's what she told me at the end: Apple operates over 500 retail stores in 26 countries. They generate more revenue per square foot than any other retailer in the world. But the money isn't what makes them different. It's what happens inside them that most customers never experience. Free diagnostics that catch $99 problems before they become $2,000 replacements. Free workshops that teach photography, video, music, and coding every day, in every store. A trade-in program that turns old devices in any condition into instant credit. Education pricing that saves students and teachers hundreds of dollars. Personal Shopping Sessions that build your perfect setup with zero pressure. A Small Business Team that configures, deploys, and manages devices for companies. A Self Service Repair program that ships genuine parts and professional tools to your home. An app with AR shopping, video consultations, and express checkout. And a 14-day return policy that lets you live with a product risk-free. Most customers walk in, buy something, and walk out. They never book a workshop. They never schedule a diagnostic. They never check their trade-in value. They never ask for education pricing. They never meet the Business Team. They never know about Self Service Repair. They never try the return policy on a purchase they're unsure about. "Apple built the highest-revenue retail stores on earth not by selling harder, but by offering more. The selling happens because the services build trust. Most customers access 10% of what the store offers. The other 90% is sitting there free, available, and waiting for someone to walk up and ask." She said the 9 services above are available right now at your nearest Apple Store. Most of them require nothing more than walking in and asking. Some require a quick online booking. None of them cost anything beyond the products themselves. The store didn't change. What you know about it did. And that's the difference between someone who buys from Apple and someone who actually uses an Apple Store.

Majd Taby (@jtaby) reported@leonsasson like 6 inches. I didn't even think twice about it, but my screen had cracked and was replaced at the Apple Store so maybe if your screen is replaced then you have an issue?
-
Chidwick (@Chidwick6) reported@ITalkOfChrist It absolutely looks like some redesigned fast food joint. I stand by what I said. If they went this way, we’d be known for building beautiful temples and boring modernist chapels somewhere between an Apple Store and the sleek new McDonald’s down the road.

D1kE (@D1k3) reported@zachxbt If what he's showing is true it would be pretty easy to track him down, who buys that much at apple store lol
-
The Augmented Path (@AugmentedPath) reportedTried Apple’s new hardware leasing option and got sent through @Klarna. Rejected with no explanation, then dumped back to the Apple Store home screen with an empty cart. Apparently Klarna wants you to build a purchase history with them before they’ll “trust” you. If they actually checked my credit history, approval wouldn’t be an issue. Really disappointing to see @Apple outsource financing to a company with a model like this.

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.

Shayne (@shayne_snape) reportedMy app got rejected for a missing Terms of Use link in description.That's the Apple store Review experience. A static field. Checkable in seconds — at submission time.The automated check fired the NEXT DAY instead. Back of the queue. A weekend lost to a 10-minute fix. The tooling exists. It just runs a day late.

Dylan Bishop (@DylanBishopX) reported@Metacogmission @spatialinsider ok yeah beginning to think its my Vision Pro guess I'll have to take it down to Apple Store thanks

HyBrid LFC🛡️🔴 (@hybrid_lfc) reportedTelegram will still come back to the Apple Store. This happened around 2018 and is definitely a glitch. People will create unnecessary agendas from it right now.
-
Dr. Anand (@DrAnandBherwani) reported24+ hours later my @TMobile eSIM still won’t activate on my brand new iPhone. I’ve spent hours with @TMobileHelp, visited a T-Mobile store for over an hour, and even went to the Apple Store. Apple believes the issue is on T-Mobile’s provisioning side.

kasper (@casper_calls) reportedDetroit 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.

Kamsiob (@Kamsiob) reported@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.

Onyx_Digital (@OnyxAudit) reported🚨 #BREAKING : The @telegram app has just been removed from the @Apple store. It had been removed because it had made "inappropriate content" available to users, founder Pavel Durov said. The removal came soon after Telegram launched an unfinished version of its "experimental" Telegram X app. Apple took down both the official messaging app and the one still being worked on.

Amy Dammit (@AmyDammit) reported@ssgtwrightusmc @Verizon We have had AT&T for over 20 years. I used to visit stores when I needed help, now I use the chat feature on their website. Have never had an issue, good results and I print off a transcript of the conversation. We have all Apple products and upgrade through the Apple Store.

fullert (@fullert26) reported@Svntvmvriv Fix the bugs on the app in the Apple Store. It messes up every time you switch between watching streamers or if you click out of the app you lose the emotes and have to close and reopen it.
-
Rich (@Rich00153) reported@LucyTrims @veryfathomer @cookhamcockapoo Bath has to do something with the old M&S - you can't have the biggest shop in town standing empty. I was shocked by Quakers Friars in Bristol the other day - all shops closed down, the Apple Store, everything. This was supposed to be the high-end shopping experience in Bristol

Maximilian Supr 🇨🇦 (@MrMaxthegreat) reported@_nonfigurativ_ Maybe you need to buy from the Apple Store and not your buddy down the street, nepotism will always forget something
-
Carl (@Gladvillain) reported@13_T_C It uses the xpub so we shouldn’t have any problems. But who knows really. Make sure you use the right one and not a scam. A guy last year lost 6 Bitcoin because he downloaded a fake sparrow app from the Apple Store. They have no app.

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.
