The other day, I spilled a little water on the back of my 13 pro max. One of the camera lenses is completely broken out so I was worried, but I dried it off and everything was fine.

A few days later, I noticed the iOS camera app wasn’t working unless I turned the camera to “selfie” mode. I can still take perfect photos via Snapchat, but if it’s via the native camera app, I just get a black screen.

The camera is a fairly big part of my job. Any ideas what’s going on or some troubleshooting?

Upgraded from 12 pro to 15 Plus. And it’s disappointing

Looking to make the jump from Android to Apple but curious what model and size to get?

I'm on my phone a lot so I like the size of my s21+.

I do already have a MacBook air and airpods so I figured getting an iPhone made more sense than another android phone.

I know it’s supposed to be water resistant, but do I need to do anything?

I forgot the phone was in my waistband.

I grabbed it within a second and dried it off, pulled the case off, and wiped it off with an electronic wipe. Blew water form the port.

All functions seem to be working fine.

I was afraid of this, when I bought my 15PM. Traveled to Chile, and what would have been a quick transaction at the Entel store ended in disappointment. Apparently you need a Chilean ID to purchase an eSIM. Fortunately, I brought a pixel 3 I can hotspot, and takes a nano sim, but it’s something of a hassle. My only regret so far.

I need help, family member passed and need to get into his phone. It is locked with a passcode, phone was reset so can’t use Siri. Does someone know a way?

Somehow I have access to AppleTV+… yet I am not subscribed, haven’t been billed, and have no subscription showing under “manage subscriptions”. Anyone else experience this?

I have in the past redeemed free months when getting a new Apple product but not for well over a year. I’ve only recently noticed I have access. I’m stumped! How can I check this? I just want to know how much time I have with it before getting in to any long series

Why does every update seems to change functionality of the side button? Now it does not start the workout since the update. Or is it just me.

Edit: I meant action button.

Apple Watch Series 5. Recently the always on display isn’t showing the watch face or whatever app was open when I rest my wrist - instead it’s showing a black screen with white digital time. I’ve searched the settings, I’ve closed all apps, I can’t figure out why it isn’t showing a dimmed watch face. Any help would be appreciated.

All the haters on the sub are so deep in their feelings , they don’t retain the ability to look outside their own bubble. 🤷🏽‍♂️ more casual computing sales for me. USA is 339 million mac users..

But if you’re on with board dm me , I’m open to brainstorming how to corner the 2nd hand market.

If your “InTEl aRe DyinG” crew, you haven’t been out of your room in your moms house in 10 years, so wdc. 😂

It looks much more premium to me, titanium just gives off aluminum vibes to me and it feels very cheap compared to the stainless steel on the 14P.

I have an SE 2 but really want an SS graphite series 9. Problem is with the X coming out next year, it could be a real change. Not sure if it’s a better option to wait one more year. What would you do in my case?

Hi Reddit! I wanted to share an exciting update to my app - Pal!

At a high level, the app works by using the ChatGPT API. This allows you to use GPT-4 Turbo and DALL-E 3 etc. through the new APIs rather than having to pay a flat $20/month for ChatGPT Plus!

I've added support for a lot of the new API announcements:
API Key access to GPT-4 Turbo, GPT-4 Vision, DALL-E 3, and Text to Speech (TTS)

I've previously added some nice to have features such as:
- Ability to edit both the question and the AI response (Famously missing in the official app)
- On-device conversation history
- Voice input (New - coming later today!)
- Saving multiple prompts
- Saving multiple system messages
- Ability to adjust the temperature
- See the token length and cost of the conversation

I've had an overwhelming amount of positive feedback so am excited to announce these updates that you all requested! This is a free indie app built just for people to try out ChatGPT APIs so I hope you find the app useful!

Of course, the app collects absolutely NO data. You can verify this by going to the app's App Privacy Report in iOS Settings and see that network calls are only being made to OpenAI. Everything is done on-device.

Please remember to get an API Key from OpenAI!
Remember, GPT3.5/GPT-4 isn't free, you just pay per use through the API Key instead - with the new API pricing this makes it a lot more affordable than $20/month for most people (not all, but most).

1 day old white 12 mini.

I am learning to do Zone 2 Training where I have to keep my heart rate in Zone 2. AFIK, the Apple Watch does not give alerts by sound or vibration when I set up the low/high numbers. Has anyone successfully set this up or can confirm it's not possible?

Today, my watch (series 7, only 12 months old) battery just died. I normally get a full day without needing a charge. It depleted very quickly, so I gave it a charge for an hour but it dropped again very quickly and went right down to zero. I put it on charge again and left it for a while. I’ve come back to it now not turning on, it is now only flashing the Apple logo and when I took it off charge it was very warm. Can I assume it is knackered?

Anyone else annoyed by how the iPhone 15 pro is being marketed? They are really just milking the whole “it’s titanium” thing, when they really should focus on 8 gb of ram, A17 pro chip, and fluid 120hz display. Maybe it’s just me.

As title states, my gf lost her phone and can't figure out her Apple ID. I know zero about the Iphone world.

I know it can be found via icloud, are there any third party, workarounds, or advice anyone can provide?. Thanks in advance!

So, I have several thoughts and ask for opinions on it:

Otterbox and any other case without a micro fabric = bad because it can damage/scratch the back.

iPhone silicone case bad because it’s edges are too low to protect the screen (specially when using a screen protector)

Mous good because airoshock material surrounding the phone but BAD because it’s so tight, putting on or removing the case can damage the phone. This Con goes to every other super tight case. Also, several complaints on Reddit from users who got their case replaced after months because it was damaged.

Clear cases yellow and no micro fabric.

What am I going for when I want: micro fabric, good/decent protection? No issue paying more when I get more in return.
