I am somewhat sad that I as a man can not use the cycle tracking feature because it seems so cool.

I just got an IPhone 14 (I know I’m slow to upgrade) and my whites are gray almost all the time. I especially notice it within TikTok I thought it was a TikTok issue but realized I think it’s maybe the phones issue? Like when I type out white text on TikTok for example, it’s gray. All the icons down the side like follow like etc. they’re all gray. It’s driving me insane 😭

I can’t find it, is there an option that I have to switch? I have to keep my devices unlocked and with open screen; while airplaying to appletv. Usually I was able to lock the phone and put it to the side and it kept on running. Can somebody please point me to the correct setting point; where I can solve that? Thx

Was talking with a friend of mine about the range of iPhone models, and kept wondering if it's a mistake in buying the regular iPhone. Don't get me wrong, maybe some people don't want to spend extra money for some features that they will most probably never use, but the regular ones just miss some things(like the 120 Hz display) that should not be called "features" anymore nowadays. Also the chip is another thing that is messing with me. Like between the regular 13 and 14 the difference is the number on the box. Am I wrong?

iPhone 13 iOS 16.7. Tried opening Snapchat this morning and suddenly I get message saying that I need to allow camera access but then when I try pressing the button for it I can’t find snapchats camera permission option in settings.

Then when I tried copying and pasting pictures into chrome or saving pictures it wouldn’t let me because I need to let chrome save

What changed overnight? I didn’t change anything and now some things are just going weird

Add: every app I try to use the privacy settings are fucked over now for no reason. Tried to save pictures on Facebook and I am having the same problem too

Everything worked last night

Has anyone recently upgraded to an iPhone 12 and noticed it seems to be chewing up data at a crazy rate compared with their last phone, like an iPhone XR? For example, in 13 days, they say I used 10.8gigabytes on Reddit and 15.8 gigabytes on Amazon? No videos . That is not possible!!!

I purchased a Verizon-locked iPhone 14ProMax from a local seller. Is there any way I can unlock it?

Is it normal behavior that my iPhone will disconnect from WiFi when using continuity camera to FaceTime on TVOS? I get a notice at the top right of my tv screen saying that the iPhone is being disconnected from WiFi in order to optimize the continuity camera. I just noticed this is happening after updating to 17.1.2 on my iPhone 15 PM. Coincidentally I also hardwired my Apple TV to Ethernet today but I’m not sure why that would matter.

It seems weird that it would need to disconnect from WiFi, but it seems weird enough to be plausible so I guess I’m wondering if this is normal or a bug.

Is there a way to check someone’s location on Find My without them knowing? I know when you check, it will show either a purple or grey arrow on their Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Find My. But is there a way to check their location without having any arrows show up on their end?

Hi guys,

I need some advice or suggestion here as I just switched from samsung s8. As this is my first iphone in my life, I wanna take good care of it. But the titanium surroundings made me wanna go caseless.

Can someone please give me any suggestion that I use the case but still able to feel that titanium edge.

Thank you in advance.

My mom only has 1 arm so the possibility of her having an Apple Watch always seemed unrealistic. However with the pinch commands etc., can I give my mom an Apple Watch for Christmas and could she use it entirely with 1 arm? Realistically she could sometimes tap things with her nose, but I would love for her to be able to have a primary way to use/navigate the watch without that

Traded my old 14 pro for $650. After receiving item apple said they adjusted value from $650 to a measly $150. Apple’s reason as quoted: ‘Camera lens has small crack/pitting/chips with no impact to picture quality.’ My thing is, if picture quality is not impacted, and only one single lens out of 3 has a small crack.. why does that warrant a $450 difference? Makes no sense to me.

My phone has never frozen before and never given me problems, it kept bugging me to update it and I did now it freezes every 30 minutes when I open apps or want to do anything

I'll start from the beginning.

I bought an Apple Watch SE a couple months ago and it's worked fine until now. This morning, I took my watch off the charger, and to my surprise, it wouldn't turn on. The screen was completely black and I couldn't wake it, but the watch wasn't dead. Sounds and haptics still worked like normal, and my watch would ping whenever I got a notification. Throughout the day, the screen still wouldn't turn on. I tried putting it back on its charger and still nothing. I'm worried I might have to send it back if there's not a way I can fix it after checking here and with Apple support.

Thank you.

all the sudden all my apple device's will not auto connect to this system. If i restart one of the apple TVs , I will need to connect to Wifi and enter password every single time. This goes for almost all my apple devices >

I’m tired of people upgrading to premium to get videos to play while their phone is locked because you can do it with the free version. Here is how:

  1. Make sure your phone is in portrait orientation with the YouTube video open and playing

  2. Swipe up to your home screen so the video plays in the MiniPlayer

  3. Swipe down from the top of your screen to open Notification Center

  4. Unpause the video within Notification Center

  5. You can now lock your phone and the video will continue to play.

Your welcome P.S. this process seems long at first but becomes muscle memory in a day or two.

My boyfriend’s aunt gave me her old Apple Watch. Upon looking it up it’s the Apple Watch SE A2351 (I think it’s the very first one) and it won’t change into the portrait Apple Watch faces I want, though I’ve added it into “My Watch.” I’ve tried disconnecting and reconnecting, and looked up pretty much everywhere for a solution. Trying not to do another hard reset in case it might need the original owner’s info. The software is also updated.

How do I go about this?

Faz hoje uma semana que comprei um Apple Watch Serie 9 celular mas não estou satisfeito com o relógio. E gostaria de saber se o posso devolver à loja onde o comprei (iStore) ou se não existe política de devolução por ser um produto de natureza informática? Como se procede nestes casos? Obrigado

I checked out all of the iPhone 15 models at 2 different Apple stores and besides the White Titanium the backplate coating on the 3 other colors were noticeably marked up and scratched.

It looks like constantly docking them on the MagSafe chargers plus regular customer handling are scratching them up.

On the other hand all of the regular 15 models looked pretty new with no noticeable marks or scratches.

I wonder if the finish is different on the 15 and 15 Pro?

Have you noticed any noticeable wear on yours?

Anyone else experience this? Without going into all the tech details I'm wondering how to stop this. I think it's the TV rebooting—or maybe it's also the Apple TV, I'm not sure.

Hi everyone,

I have AWU@wOS 10.1. I am unable to open the wallet app by double clicking of the side button. I’ve added my cards in the iPhone Wallet and they work just fine for mobile payments. Can’t get it to work on my watch, even if I try to open the wallet app it doesn’t start. Tried unpairing the watch and registering as a new one but it didn’t help. Tried updating to wOS 10 Beta and then to Developers beta, it didn’t help. Any help is greatly appreciated

I was wondering if getting an LTE Apple Watch (like the Apple Watch Ultra 2) could make it so I wouldn't need to carry my phone in the vast majority of circumstances. Am I right to assume that with an appropriate phone plan I can take calls, receive messages, read emails, use Apple Maps, etc all from my wrist anywhere without my phone? Since I have an issue with attention, I'm considering just putting my phone in my nightstand and using the Apple Watch 99% of the time since I really only need to make calls, check emails use Apple Maps when I'm lost and the rest is distraction.

What I'm asking is: is it really just a limited wrist phone when you want it to be?

Hi

When someone calls me it is silent unless I press the speaker button. Sound is fine except during calls. Has anyone had this issue and know a fix?

I can play videos on YouTube instagram and no issue just during calls. When I press speaker everything is fine.

Can anyone help me sort this?

Thanks I’m advance

So updated no big deal and finder stopped working as well as all my desktop files are gone. Spent hours on phone with support. All they said was they are gonna send the info to engineering, but will likely to have to reset 😑. Make another user on the log in and it works completely fine so it apparently ruined that account which was my only one. Anyone else having similar issues?
