    It drives me crazy if I’m watching my Apple TV this “live activities” widget appears on my iPhone lockscreen. Any media type displays here, regardless of the device it’s playing on. Is there a way to permanently remove this from my iPhone Lock Screen for media not being played on my iPhone...

    I’m planning to order 3 Apple MagSafe battery packs for $30 each because I only like OEM stuff from Apple and I heard some issues with this accessory but want to check before I buy 3 of them

    Apple Intelligence for UK users

    Is Apple Intelligence now available in the UK? I understand that it was introduced in the recent 18.2 update. However, when I changed my language settings from English US to English UK, Apple Intelligence stopped working. Has anyone looked into this issue?

    Other Apple should release another polycarbonate iPhone - SE4 would be perfect

    My girlfriend and I were talking last night about all the different iPhones we've owned. She started with the 4s, I started with the original. We both had traded in our 4s for an iPhone 5c at the Apple store, but the only reason I did is because they were out of the 5. It was day one. She was...

    Other Zirconia Screen iPhone

    What do you think of an iPhone screen made of Zirconia glass? Do you want it, and how much would you pay for it.

    Other Diamond Screen iPhone

    Imagine for one moment that the iPhone screen could be made from lab grown diamond, this would mean it would be scratch resistant to all other materials except a diamond itself. Basically unshatterable. Would you be willing to pay a extra $300.

    Other Apple needs to bring nano-texture to the iPhone 17

    I finally have a matte/nano-texture MacBook Pro and iPad and I couldn't be happier. All we need is Apple to bring it to the iPhone 17 as an option and all will be right with the world 😅

    Resolved Did camera control just…randomly changed the way you use it? I swear zoom control was different in the morning (now it changes lenses).

    It's an absolutely welcome change and I love it, but I don't know how it even happened. Previously it was changing smoothly (and therefore was useless for me). EDIT : Ok, I didn't know that bit, if you double tap on CC button you change the way zoom works, smoothly or by changing lenses. Case...

    Other iPhone SE 2024

    Just want to through out a prediction: *The iPhone SE 2024 will be the first Carbon Neutral iPhone* With apple working through the product line-up anyway, I feel the iPhone SE could likely be next on the list because Apple can promote the re-use and re-purpose of chassis and displays from old...

    Hi everyone! After updating my iPhone 14 Pro to iOS 18.1, during a call and its Dynamic Island animation, the clock on the upper corner doesn’t show up anymore. This happens only in calls, in other circumstances it is like it used to. Already tried hard resetting the iPhone. Anyone else...

    My brain seems to be out to lunch on this one. I have an iPhone 15 Pro and also a HomePod - the big one. I am trying to listen to music with my headphones. That works. OK, now the wife is grading papers and frequently asks siri on the home pod (I have no idea why she doesn't do that on...

    Work Messaging on iMessage with two eSIMs cumbersome for anyone else?

    Is anyone else frustrated with the current mechanics of using two eSIMs when one of them is for work? Specifically, if I'm using my MacBook to respond to a work text then it automatically switches my line to my personal which defeats any privacy purpose I had to get a work phone number. My...

    iPhone 15 Pro Why is the paint on iPhones chipping so easily these days?

    Why is the paint on iPhones chipping so easily these days? I can see it everywhere in Apple stores, especially around the camera (on the 15 and earlier models, since the 16 is probably too new). I can remember the very very old days when I used HTC and Samsung phones (without a case!) that also...
