Cheap Jibes 🏴☠️ (@AbsenceMalice) reportedI actually took a 24” iMac to the ‘genius’ people in an Apple Store as I had 97gb system data. They pretended they didn’t know how to whittle it down.

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.

Jack (@jackcoder0) 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.

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.

rohan sogani (@rohansogani) reported@tibor_tee Although I have subscribed to grok bot, I have not been able to use it due to certain technical glitches. I subscribed to it through my iPhone Apple Store in India, as there were certain issues while subscribing through the website. Still no response from your team. Please look into it. I am so excited to use clawdbot but am not able to do it, writing from India.

Thomas James (@rocky7586) reported@IrrelevantNerd @beautyskillz Digital movies are very different so no, it's not the same. This is long but it'll help people understand. There's two different versions of digital movies you can buy/get. There's the ones you get from Fandango At Home, Movies Anywhere, Microsoft Store, formerly the PlayStation Store, Apple Store, Google Play Store, etc. These are the ones you have a limited license to VIEW on those platforms only. When you read the EULA for those you'll see it tells you that you own nothing. You just have a license to view it on that platform. Meaning, if that platform goes away? You'll lose access and they have no real obligation to refund you or move platforms for you. That's what you agree to every time they do that. Movie licenses are subject to renewal, gaming licenses are one and done. Renewing the license every few years is what those third party companies do on your behalf. If they can't get it done they lose access which, in turn, means you lose access. The other version of digital movies? You DO own it. Fully. I'll explain it. These digital movies are movies you get directly from the studios that distributed it. Meaning, you bought the DVD or Blu-Ray and the digital code it came with, you used it. You got a code directly from their website store. Or, you got gifted a code or won a code from them or a third party that got the codes from them directly. With that? Once you redeem that code, that movie is yours to keep on one of those platforms I mentioned earlier. Forever. If a platform you bought a code and put your paid movie on goes out of business? They have an obligation to either find you another locker (they use this term for the other digital platforms they house the movies) to store the movie on, or they HAVE to let you download the movies to your personal storage. All of this is in their EULAs. I hope you read it all to get a better understating of the difference between movies and games EULA. A game is never going to get taken from you unless you do one of two things. You break TOS, or you call them and tell them you don't want the license any longer. Also in their EULA. Even if they no longer exist as a company you still own your games digitally. They'll leave you to download them or leave them attached to your username on your consoles. They will not shut down the usernames just because they don't exist as a company. They will keep the agreement in place. That's just how it works. Again, I know this is a long read, but it's very informative.

maxtm (@maxtm) reported@historyinmemes I went to an Apple Store about 8 years back and the network was down so they pulled out those credit card imprinters and special slips. I hadn't seen carbon copy credit card slips since childhood. KA-CHUNK

Oscar (@HeyOscarx) reportedA woman spent 5 years as an Apple Store Genius. She repaired, troubleshot, and configured over 10,000 iPhones. She now runs an IT consulting firm. She told me: "Every iPhone owner walks around with a supercomputer in their pocket that's configured against them. The default settings drain your battery faster than necessary, share your location with apps that don't need it, let advertisers track you across the internet, send your typing data to third-party servers, keep a detailed diary of everywhere you've ever been, and let strangers ring your phone 15 times a day with spam calls you could silence with one toggle." "I picked up my mom's iPhone last Thanksgiving and found 11 problems in 3 minutes. Her battery was dying by 2 PM because 47 apps were refreshing in the background. Her location was being shared with apps she deleted 2 years ago. Her photos were accessible to 23 apps that only needed the camera. Her storage was full of files she couldn't see. And her Lock Screen was showing message previews to anyone who picked up the phone." "She'd owned the iPhone for 3 years. She'd never opened the Settings app beyond changing her wallpaper." "The iPhone ships with over 200 configurable settings. Most people have changed 3: the wallpaper, the ringtone, and the Wi-Fi password. The other 197 are running on defaults Apple chose and not all of them were chosen for you." Here are 11 iPhone settings most people have never changed and exactly how to change each one: 🧵

Mostafa Ezzat (@mostafaezztaman) reported@Apple @AppStore @AppleSupport I don't think it's professional that waiting 3 days to get a response on Apple Store Connect support. This's doesn't fit Apple so far! The iOS app has been in review for almost a week and I'm keep messaging back and forth about changes has been done and still getting some issues from no where. The team reaches out ever 3 days!!! So I need someone from Apple Store Management to get this through.
