Erika (@ItsErikabYo) reportedNext few months and I take elliana to Highpoint I’m going to the Apple Store I’m gonna ask how much for a new battery for my watch and if they can fix the speaker for my phone calls, I will also look at repair shops and see what’s the best quotes

Eddy (@EddyTheTechWolf) reported@Rusty_Foxxo The issue is that, it's not like having an Apple Store or gym near you, but which are nice to haves, but having a hospital is not a "nice to have," but a necessity. When your life is a stake, we shouldn't quantifying people's lives in terms of "being worthwhile"...

VaccineWaters 🇺🇸 (@VaccineWaters74) reported@WallStreetApes When the 5 came out, the latest update bricked my 4. Went to the Apple Store and they said there were a few other people came in with the exact issue.

Discord Support (@discord_support) reportedHello there. Unfortunately, if you’re seeing the “invalid subscription” error when attempting to redeem a promotional trial, this means that you currently have an active Nitro Basic, Classic or Server Boosting subscription through the Apple Store or Google Play. Because mobile subscriptions are managed through third parties and separate billing systems, you won’t be able to redeem a promotional trial while they are active. You will need to cancel and wait for your mobile subscription to end completely before you can activate your trial. If your subscription’s end date is after the redemption deadline for the promotion, you won’t be able to redeem the trial code or link, but can gift it to an eligible friend instead. I'm so sorry for any confusion or disappointment here. We are always adding new promotional offers, so please keep an eye out for those in the future.

Rupali C (@rupalichawann) reported15 days into owning an iPhone 17 Pro and facing extreme heating issues even on calls. Visited Apple Store BKC hoping for support, but was simply told this is “normal behavior.” That response is more frustrating than the issue itself. @AppleSupport @Apple

Famous14u (@famous14u) reportediPhone keeps freezing after restarting. Won't allow me to input passcode to start phone after turning it on. Wondering if I should go to Apple store. They want me to buy storage. I'm protesting. Hate when this happens. Battery at 100% now I need to let battery drain to shut down.

CoachAlija (@TurkovicAlija) reportedMy MacBook Pro just stopped working from error messages to having these options and tried it all - see image. Also ran diagnostics, spoke to Apple Support last night and took the mac to apple store today - they were not able to help! They couldnt find the storage device - thats it. I’ve used @grok thus far + @AppleSupport phone & in-store support. Who can help and get me past this problem?

Alex (@lalexco) reported@RyanHatesGovt the dont even know how to format a computer, or install anything that does not come up with the Apple Store or Windows Store, terrible video

Savvy💫 (@SavanahChante) reportedWent to the Apple Store for them to fix my phone, left with a brand new one 🤸

VICΞ 𝕏 (@ViceXXII) reported@matveilp Please add a option to link more than one login method, the newest mobile game Neverness to Everness features this option where you can link E-Mail, Google, Apple ID etc. im currently stuck with Apple Store login and cant play on other devices which kinda sucks

little isa (@landoscah) reportedI had this problem and it wasn’t water.I brought my phone to an Apple Store for repair and they said some of the charging connection points on my phone were burnt (they were visibly darkened). Since it was still under warranty they fixed it for free with a new entire logic board)
-
Cheryl Hunter 🏳️🌈🇨🇦🌻🦋🇺🇦 (@LadyEmmasGhost) reportedI’m loving all the animal accounts. It’s a much needed laugh in a day where I spent most of the afternoon in the Apple Store going through Password Hell. And it wasn’t even MY problem. Long, dumb story.
-
Elikem King (@KingElikem) reported@redjungle_077 @tech_twi But you Dey use google and Apple Store , that one you don't have issues with it
-
Smoke Showing (@StrikeAnother1) reportedI’ve been dealing with an iPhone issue on my daughter’s phone for months, including multiple attempts through their customer service and multiple visits to the @Apple store. I’ve just been sent on circles over and over and over. I’m currently sitting here in the Apple Store (for the third time) in as many months and have basically been abandoned while they help someone else. Their customer service has been horrendous and I am so frustrated!

Zaik (@RealZaikTorek) reported@Grxit Wasn't this the "civil rights rally" where the burned down an autozone and looted an apple store lmao
-
Ian Grimsdick (@TheRamblingRep) reported@arpan_on_BC If they're perfectly formed boxes, I'd hazard to guess the little cable that connects the motherboard to the display has gotten a little loose. Should be a warranty issue Apple should fix/replace. Head to an Apple store and they should take care of it. There's a chance ...
-
Bill Daily (@MutnHeadDigest) reported@coinbureau NO WAY! More scaminess in the digitized DPRK infiltrated OTC/BB Pinksheet griftcoin world. Don't believe it folks go grab your hardware wallet today, and update the app in the Apple store, right on the verge of mass adoption. I don't think we need to wait for quantum for trouble.

Jen! 🐭 (COMMS OPEN) (@jengleeart) reported@Absorbantsy That’s what happened to my first one :( the current one connects to my neighbours iPad just fine, just not mine for some dumb reason. I don’t live near any Apple Store so I’m relying on phone support and it’s been painfully slow 😭 slowly resenting apple tbh

maddy🌺 (gaaras real girlfriend) (@maddyluvzgaara) reportedDREAM:wanted to have Sheldon cooper as my wallpaper and downloaded a virus and for some reason I had a rich guy that followed me around I said “hey can we go to the Apple Store” and he completely ignored me and we went to a prison to bail someone out instead so I had to fix my phone myself anyways my *** is going back to bed 😭
-
Cory Schulz (@cory_schulz_) reported@tekbog paying $100 every 2-3 years to replace a battery at an Apple store is not a serious issue. I would be much more concerned about how it would affect the water resistance of the phone if I were to change the battery myself and not have the glue or seals line up properly

Anil Kumar Rathee (@anilkrathee) reportedWorking on android play store (around 77 Mb taken plus data-consumption), not available on Microsoft /apple store. That is sad. Printing is problem sir ji (@ECISVEEP)

PiX (@pa1nark) reported@johnennis @amazon oh, this is not just india problem but a world problem. my suggestion is straight forward - if buying online, buy it directly from their store - in this case, apple store or, buy it offline
-
Mike Endale (@MikeEndale) reportedIt’s easier to go heaven than trying to buy an iPhone from @Apple Store app. Yuck. Such a broken experience. @AppleSupport help! Please fix the app
-
Aeryn is on Other Blue Site (@AerynChristie) reported7. As a further courtesy, I'll give you one week from tomorrow (Which will be 5/8/26) to issue a refund to me and properly label the items in your app's store. After that, I will report the violating lootbox mechanics on both the Play store and the Apple store. 8/8

Komail Haider (@actuallykumail) reported@carbonbuns literally had the same issue. i went to the apple store bec my friends works there and he said iphone 14 has one of the worst batteries created by apple
-
K🌸B (@Kirsten0Brien) reported@ashleyeleanor I went to the Apple Store with a different photo issue I had for weeks and the Gen Z Genius Bar kid solved my (very easy) issue in 2 seconds. Real let’s-get-you-to-bed-grandma moment. However maybe going to a store could help?

(Light Bringer) + (Black in German) (@CosmicInglewood) reportedWhen the USB-C input power and data port of M2 MacBook Pro stopped working, I took it to the local Apple Store, about $100 to fix instead of $1400 for a new one, you see, fixing made more sense fiscally also, but also reduces e-waste, be smart and frugal fix your things
