  @Techn0Fox Android for me. Imo apple software is extremely watered down, and I don't want my phone telling me I can't download or change something. I don't wanna drive an hour to the closest apple store to get my wallet cleaned for basic hiccups. Poor business practices.

  Live Photos exist because they check three boxes that have nothing to do with the user. They eat storage, which drives iCloud upgrades. They're visually impressive in Apple Store demos. And they create a switching cost: years of Live Photos that won't transfer cleanly to Android. Every iPhone user has accidentally sent a Live Photo that plays their voice saying something embarrassing in the background. Apple knows this. The feature has been on by default for 10 years. The fix would take one engineer one afternoon. Make it opt-in. But opt-in Live Photos would reduce iCloud storage consumption by an estimated 15-25% per user (each Live Photo is 2x the size of a regular photo because it saves a 1.5-second video clip alongside the image). Apple charges $2.99/mo for 200GB and $9.99/mo for 2TB. There are over 1 billion active iPhones. Even if only 10% of iCloud subscribers are pushed over their free tier partly because of Live Photos, that's tens of millions of monthly subscriptions that exist because a toggle is set to "on" by default. The setting is buried in Camera settings, not surfaced during setup. You will never see Apple put "Would you like Live Photos on or off?" in the onboarding flow. The confusion is the product.

  Yet, three days ago, I took it out of the case and found this weird "pink" discoloration. I contacted Apple Support immediately. They sent me to Best Buy since it was closer, but the tech there told me only the Apple Store could handle a finish issue like this.

  @minchoi it's like this for years. tools or company changes issue remain the same. If you put your app on Apple store, they can remove it anytime no matter how popular it is. Before around 10 years, faced the issue in the Stripe as well for one of the customer. Stripe blocked the account in the name of violating the terms and the whole business is broken till alternative is implementation. Some cloud providers also block or ban your account where you entire business is running.

  What Apple Store didn’t know is that, I’m not the problem but @ZenithBank This bank is so useless that you can’t even reach them through their customer care line or their social media handles to complain. They have systematically turnoff every means of communication It’s crazy!

  I’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!

  @paisoaps I wanted the dvds, but I bought it from the Apple Store. My uncles have them on dvd. I grew up watching it. I didn’t watch the movie either until recently. It’s in terrible quality, but I found a decent quality somewhere. If you want the link I’ll DM it to you

  @vladgeorgescu It absolutely can - and does - still happen. Had a problem while traveling with my son’s AirPod Pros. One of them gave us nothing but static. Made a same day appointment at the Apple Store. Wait was unusually long - almost 25 minutes. Manager came over and asked what we were waiting for .. I explained it to him, he (literally) went over to a shelf, handed me a new pair of AirPod Pros, said “Sorry we kept you waiting - let me just record the serial # off the new box so I can go in the back and add AppleCare. You have a fantastic day.” And that was that. Walked out with a completely new set of AirPod Pros, no cost, and with an AppleCare extension to boot. Had a good friend a few (short) years ago bring in an iMac for a drive replacement …. they called him the next day, someone accidentally dropped it off the desk. So they told him to come on in to the store and pick out any iMac model he wanted. Gratis. Customer service still lives at Apple.

  @looksmhee Techie head here. I've set up over 50 iPhone + iPads. iPhones have great security. There are no security issues whatsoever if you use the clean Erase + Reset the iPhone before using. You can even bring it into the Apple Store and they can inspect it and do it for you. Also, I have never heard of any hardware spy trackers installed on an iPhone. In researching, none has come up. So you guys don't have to worry. Also, I've seen many fans have gifted artists with iPhone and iPads. There has been no news reports of security issues from the phone and tech gifts. If there were any issues, it would be reported by now. The fan seem very sweet and thoughtful. Grateful to her for being a generous fan for Lena and Miu.

  @SeeksMaria I mean when one of the bigger eyesores on that block (the apple store) literally is a corporation that tore down a local music venue to build it there. Uptown has live music and more coming, and if Mike's against that it's stupid, but I don't think he's the problem here lmao
