Apple

I’m looking to buy the Ultra 2, but I’m just curious about the cellular feature. I have a plan with AT&T for my iPhone, but will the cellular on my new Apple Watch be separate from my phone and cost extra on my phone bill each month? Or does it somehow sync with the unlimited data from my iPhone?

Thanks in advance for all the help!

Is this just Australia? Google Maps updated and it’s revolting. Looks more like Apple Maps now but not as nice. What’s going on?

Safe space to complain here:

Hi all,

My wife has the AW series 9 and her current screen protector makes my eyes bleed. It’s clearly visible, has a bubble on the side (there were no bubbles during the installation) and especially: the screen reactivity is poor.

On my iPhone I have this glass screen protector but does that exist for watches in good quality?

Thx for the tips

Ps: the battery life of our Apple Watches and iPhones is good, even with the latest iOS , so don’t worry!

I have been using android for as long as I have had a smartphone and just got my first iPhone. It’s a brand new 15 Pro

However, for some strange reason, all of my wife’s passwords are stored in my password chain, and her previous bookmarks are in my safari.

I never opted in for any of that, her personal info is somehow on my device. Is there any explaining this? Seems like a major privacy issue as I could literally sign in to any account she owns. Obviously she is my wife but still, how in the world is this possible?

To be clear, I am using a brand new Apple ID and family sharing is not turned on.

For like the past week or so my iPhone 13 will randomly go to a black screen with the loading icon and turn back on..it doesn’t even technically turn off because my music still plays. How do I fix this?

I call bullshit on the given reason

I was finishing laundry when this animation occurred for some reason, and had enough time to pull out my phone! It’s pretty neat but I do not understand its purpose lol. I think I’ve seen this once before recently but it ended before I could even process it. Do y’all have any ideas as to what it could be? I googled incase this question had already been answered but all I found was a text thread on this subreddit from a while ago with no solution. Please ignore the Gaussian blur, I was rushing to get a video of this and had to edit the background 😂 Thanks for any insight!

I got the rhinoshield clear case, and i like it, except one thing. It has some transparent coating that peeling/chipping and its annoying. Is anybody experienced this?

I've done everything from cleaning the port to soft resetting my phone, the wire that I use works perfectly fine with other apple devices, I've done all I can and my phone still won't charge. 😭😭

Hi Everyone

I am in the process of getting a new apple watch and have stumbled upon two options: a second hand AW Ultra 1 for $879 (AUD) or a new Series 9 for $809. Is it worth it to spend the extra money on the Ultra or buy the Series 9? p.s my first apple watch was a se1.

Please, help, I pressed ok and it wont go away, I would gladly accept any advice, I already cleaned the port by the way

I’m trying to decide how much ICloud space I need. I have Apple Music. Do these songs that I’ve added to my library sync to my Apple account? I’m just wondering if I need to upload all of these to iCloud or not so I don’t lose my entire library in case I ever lose my phone, it breaks, etc.

I have an iphone 11 pro which was working perfectly before IOS 17. Recently I had an issue when i was travelling. I had my phone in power saving at about 10 percent. For some weird reason I had that Earth live wallpaper on. And after sometime my phone just crashed. When i tried to unlock it, it froze on the lock screen. The lockscreen was also all messed up and the clock was too high cutting into the notch. It wasnt letting me unlock and everything was stuck. I tried to turn it off but it didnt work as well. I think apple has fallen prey to losing functionality for aesthetic. Has anyone else been in the same situation?

Screen lock is there, can you intrude into my phone or can reset it to reuse?

I have noticed that I see many different opinions in this. Raise to wake goes from “it’s a constant drain” to “negilble”. And for WiFi calling I have literally seen both that it has a negative (it’s constantly maintaining WiFi signal, especially on 5Ghz WiFi that can be an issue) or a positive impact (it doesn’t have to connect to a transmission mast / post further away) on battery life.

So I was wondering how do you feel about the above? I always had both turned off because I personally felt that was better for battery life. But I have recently turned on raise to wake again because the functionality just makes things nicer to use!

Hi everyone! I got a new iPhone 15 Pro Max a few days ago, and I’ve noticed some weird behavior when it’s charging.

Basically, every time the percentage increases, I get a notification on the Dynamic Island and a small vibration like the phone was just plugged in. This happens consistently, immediately after the battery percentage changes. It’s quite annoying.

I’ve checked my charger, restarted my phone, and disabled battery optimization, but the problem still persists. Can anyone help me fix or disable this somehow?

Thanks in advance!

Looking to buy an Apple Watch without cellular! 1. Is BBC Sounds App available on Apple Watch? 2. Can I download shows and listen without cellular? Thanks!

What you peoples think how much more years its going to give updates?

I know this comes up with every new iOS update, but I feel like it has been extremely noticeable and prolonged with iOS 17. I have a 13 pro and ever since I updated, my phone never is able to get my through the day at all. Has anyone else noticed this, or am I just paranoid?

Thought it's wise to ask on here before I get scammed... I'm in need of a new phone and seeing lots of posts on marketplace/craigslist with phones that are $500-600 cheaper than retail including tax. I have asked one seller to send me the serial number with the receipt and it checked out
on https://checkcoverage.apple.com/?locale=en_IN&utm_source=pocket_saves. He even agreed to go to Apple store at Coquitlam Centre to verify the phone together.

But why would they sell for cheap? What's the catch here?

Hi my boyfriend is gonna upgrade his phone from an android one, and his only options are:

Iphone 11/ 128 GB Iphone 12/ 64 GB

As much as I want him to get an Iphone 12 so we can have matching ones, I know he loves taking many photos and 64 GB won't last, even if icloud exists I generally don't like the idea of him availing it all the time.

Please I need input ASAP, thank you so much

My sister lives in Cyprus, she's 11. Mom asked for an Apple watch for my sister to track her location. Mom has an iPhone (12/13?), and sister doesn't have a phone yet. Which Apple Watch model would be the best buy in this case? Thank you and have a great day everyone!
