Does Apple always give out the $150 gift card if purchased through the Education Store option? Wondering if I should purchase a MBA through Apple or B&H - the initial cost from Apple would be higher unless the $150 gift card is factored in. Thank you!

So I flew from central time zone to pacific time zone, and my iPhone was on airplane mode the entire flight. During the flight (I checked about every hour), the time remained central time. However, when I landed, I took out my phone, and noticed it had changed to pacific time. It was still on airplane mode, and it wasn’t connected to Wi-Fi or any Bluetooth device. Usually the time zone changes after I get out of airplane mode, but this was the first time it did it while staying in airplane mode, anyone know why? Thanks

Hoping for some help...My friend is confused because when she opens her contacts on her iPhone 6 (or 7, I'm not sure), her granddaughter's card appears above the alphabetical list of contacts as if the granddaughter was the owner of her phone. In the list of all her contacts the entry for her granddaughter is labled "me". This happened suddenly and my friend doesn't know what she did to cause it. I had a look at her phone, but couldn't figure out how to change this. Right now my friend is considering temporarily deleting the contact of her granddaughter to see if the phone reverts to displaying the correct owner, but she is hesitating because she doesn't want to make the situation worse.

I have a family of 3 people where I have shared iCloud storage (as the organizer) and my fiancé has shared Apple One (as a member).

However, I can seem to view the Apple One subscription even though she picked a family plan. Is there a way to know why?

Just updated to watchOS10. What’s happening with the weather app? Why can’t you just scroll up to get to the different weather conditions instead of having to click and select the info you want to see?

Hello friends,

I made a mistake today. I wrote a message on November 14th in our unofficial class WhatsApp group. Unfortunately, a class representative made a grave error by showing some of the most offensive messages to our teacher. Now, our teacher has stated that he will review all the messages and give zeros to those who sent derogatory content. While my message was not as severe, I am still concerned about the potential consequences.

I kindly request your assistance in finding ways to delete those messages for everyone in the group. I attempted to change my iPhone's date and time, but it was unsuccessful. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do they offer similar results, or does one model stand out over the other?

I didn't find any results after looking it up online. I know that the iPhone 14 Pro & Max has a boot setting since it has the A16 chip and I figured that the 15 series (Pro and Non-Pro) might too since it has the A17.

I bought myself a 15pro and it’s been sat in the box until I get a decent case and screen protector. What cases are you guys using? Specifically manual labour works as I’m a industrial mechanic so that means welding and working in dirt and grime.

Hi,

I have around 800 contacts, most of them with IPhones and yet no updated contact posters still.

Most likely something is wrong with my settings, or maybe I need to call/send message first in order to receive the updated poster.

Also, if they saved my number with the name Rob and if I set my name to Robert on my phone will they see the updated name?

Is it possible to transfer data such as photos, apps, etc. to my new iPhone after set up, or must it be done during set up?

It was working last night but when I woke up and tried to save some pictures I got sent on discord it said it didn’t have access to my camera roll. I also checked Messenger, Capcut Gmail, they don’t have access either which is weird since I’ve given them access?!

I haven’t messed with anything last night and I was able to upload pictures on all of these apps last night so I don’t know why it suddenly did this, is it the update (iOS 17.0.3) or is there some other cause?

Please help! I don’t know what happened I want to go back to shitposting!

I realize this question probably gets asked every few days, but I couldn’t find an answer that really addressed what I want.

I used to use Apple’s leather case on my 13P, worked well after my silicon case got all torn up. When I got my 15PM, I bought a FineWoven case thinking it would fill the same niche. It does not, this thing is peeling and scratching all over after only a month. I want to get a new case but don’t know where to start honestly. None of the leather cases I see suggested seem to have that combo of protection and thinness. Doesn’t help that most of them have a big ugly logo on them.

Would anyone know a good case that’s reminiscent of the Apple leather cases? I’d prefer leather or carbon fiber with some protection but not a lot of bulk. Extra points if they have fun colors/no logo. Thanks!

After trying troubleshoot suggestions except Reset All Settings option, I need help with automatically reconnecting to my hotspot. I am having problems with iPhone maintaining a Wi-Fi connection which is frustrating – especially when I have limited data available on your contract and don’t want to switch to cellular (5G) in order to get a better signal.

TROUBLESHOOTED AS BELOW ① I ruled out temperament Wi-Fi is stopping iPhone from connecting to cellular whenever the Wi-Fi is weak. But anyhow I already turned off Wi-Fi Assist. ② I cannot see how my hotspot signal strength is a problem because I am carrying its iPad in my computer bag and my iPhone is in my pocket; signal strength is strong enough to maintain the connection because at least three lines in the Wi-Fi symbol are filled in. ③ forgetting’ the network details and starting over. (forgetting the network and then setting it up again often fixes problems with connecting to specific networks). ④ Settings > Ask to Join Networks: Notify. ⑤ Auto-Join Hotspot: Automatic ⑥ Settings: Reset.

  1. Select the Reset Network Settings option.
  2. You’ll need to enter your iPhone passcode to confirm the decision, then the device will reboot.

Hi, I recently updated to 17.1.1 and had no issues until I woke up this morning and now my phone has no sounds or haptics.

What’s odd is the way I figured this out as I was trying to watch videos and nothing would play even though the video would load. Not even my camera roll videos would play.

I figured out it was the sound and haptics issues as when I use my AirPods, everything goes back to normal, however without the AirPods, my phone won’t play any videos or sounds.

It seems like a software issue as why would the videos not playing because the speaker is blown out or broken? Wouldn’t it just play the video without any sound?

If anyone has any solutions to this, it would be great as I use my phone as my alarm and I can’t at all now because my phone has no sound working whatsoever!!!

Hi everyone,

Happy Holidays and Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate.

I'm a new app developer and started learning iOS a month ago. I've been trying to make an app every 2-3 days on something I'm passionate or interested in. Recently, I wanted to make was a fun kids friendly app for my cousins.

Recently, I've been spending a lot of time improving this app to be more engaging for kids.

Please take a look and let me know what you think! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/discover-animal-sounds/id6471942184

I'm always looking for ways to improve the experience so feel free to give me any sorts of criticism / feedback. I am currently working on adding more audios for animal as well as adding an audio description for each animal. Also, tinkering around with the Rive framework to make more engaging visuals for kids.

Let me know what you think!

Thank you!
