    iPhone XS IPhone XS battery health

    Yesterday I noticed that the battery health of my IPhone XS is at 97% already. When I checked the battery health just a little over a week ago my battery health still was at 100%. Is this even normal? I have my IPhone XS since launch day. I’m on also on IOS version 12.01 right now. Even though...

    iPhone Lost 10 years of photos & messages - back-up isn't showing up for 'old' iPhone X or Phone Xs Max.

    Update They are the same iOS now (12.1) but the new device doesn't pick up the backup. OP below I have an iPhone X that I'm replacing with an Xs Max. I went though all the usual set up but it won't let me restore from the back-up due to the iOS. I searched how to remove the Beta software, I...

    I’ve got the XS max on order, but am looking for a clear soft(rubber/gel) case that is thin enough not to add a lot of extra bulk, but also has some drip protection. Tell me about your favorite clear cases! Sorry, just realized there is another thread on this

    IPhone Xs max Speck presidio grip

    Hey guys, just received my speck presidio grip case yesterday for my xs max. First impressions are good. I had this case for my iPhone 7 Plus and 8 plus. Dimensions for the max are almost the same. The rubber grip strips feel a bit more secure on this case verse the older one (how they are...

    Apple iPhone XS Max grill distorted on earpiece

    Hi, just checking to see if the grill (earpiece) on the XS Max or XS is usually distorted as shown in the pic? https://imgur.com/a/QEP7tjT I'm guessing it's just a manufacture issue and random. I don't want to fuss about something that doesn't appear to affect speaker quality, but I was...

    I usually walk my dog at night and use my phone's flashlight to see. Tonight, after walking the dog, I forgot to turn my flashlight off on the phone and put the phone in my front pocket with the camera side facing my leg, a few moments later I felt my leg was burning up. I quickly got the phone...

    Ex iPhone Users - Why Did You Switch To Android?

    Hey guys, I know a lot of people come from android to iPhone and never look back. I have always used iPhone from my first phone, and would not consider switching.

    There were quite a few negative reviews for the Logitech wireless charging stand on the Apple Store as people complained that it would not work with a case attached.

    iPhone XS iPhone Xs Chargegate is real - Terrible

    So the chargegate is real, it has happened to me once but not often - but many people are experiencing this regularly. Some people's phones are locking up, some people are saying it charges then stops further on. This should be fixable by software on the whole, but some of the problems seem...

    With my new XS Max, I found the initial screen settings to be quite DIM: even after the common solution of turning off the Auto-Brightness feature (conveniently hidden in the Display Accommodations pane of the Accessibility settings), I had an issue with my brightness slider randomly failing to...

    Carrier eSim locked to carrier?

    Multiple sources I asked at AT&T - while generally saying that they hadn't been given much/any information yet - all seemed to conclude that a phone locked to AT&T would have the eSim locked as well, and that to unlock the eSim for use overseas, you'd need to purchase the phone outright...
