    Apple's Former Marketing Director Returned his Bent iPad Pro on Monday saying he's unhappy with Apple's Handling of the Matter

    Why can’t Apple Music detect when adding a duplicate to a playlist? Or let you remove a song from a playlist with a swipe or long press, without going into edit mode?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 01:16 PM PST

    These are features available from iTunes- it will warn when adding a duplicate, and you can right click and remove a song from a playlist directly. Is it just too difficult?

    Edit: spelling.

    Apple is getting so much negative PR on bent iPads, it would have been cheaper to just replace them all for free

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 03:07 PM PST

    Apple is getting so much negative PR on bent iPads, it would have been cheaper to just replace them all for free.

    That would have reinforced the positive image of apple service being incredible.

    Instead they just look ridiculous, charging premium prices for low cost quality and service. They probably still replace the iPads if you insist but got a lot of bad PR in the process. This whole bendgate 2.0 is a mess.

    Some people need to get fired at Apple for handling this case so badly.

    I was in line at Spider-Man in Islands of Adventure and noticed that many of the keyboard props were vintage Apple keyboards.

    Are these New iPad Pros Bent? Apple says No.

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 09:17 PM PST

    I took my New iPad Pro 3rd Gen 256gb WiFi + Cellular to the Apple Store to exchange because it is bent. They replaced it a few days later with another iPad Pro, which was bent even more than the original. Now, Apple has refused to exchange the device for one that isn't bent. What should I do?

    Luna display = waste of money

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 09:30 PM PST

    I saw some other threads about Luna Display and wanted to add my experience with it.

    I ordered mine around thanksgiving and it arrived a week or so later at my office. I installed the apps and used it for about 10 minutes. My work WiFi is not great so I shrugged off the bad performance (which I will describe in a little bit) and boxed up the Luna and put it in my cable bag.

    It stayed there in my cable bag until today when I remembered I had never gotten around to using it at home.

    With both latest iPad Pro 12.9 and latest 15" MacBook Pro sitting about 8 ft away from my WiFi router the performance was just as bad at the office. Scrolling lagged bad, especially with pictures. Everything turns compressed and grainy until you stop scrolling, wait a second (or more), and then it clears up. Repeat this process over and over again because you can only scroll so far with two fingers on the iPad screen. So while it was nice to have "real safari" on my iPad. The experience is so bad that I would never consider using it this way again.

    I could see using it for something static, like calendar or iMessage where scrolling is minimal but those apps are arguably better natively on the iPad and don't require Luna at all for a second screen experience.

    Image preview in notification bar iOS 12 no longer available

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 05:38 PM PST

    I updated to iOS 12 and for some reason whenever I receive a picture it just shows the name of who's it from.

    https://i.imgur.com/aeShjfB.jpg

    It used to show a little preview of what the picture was but now it doesn't. Is there a way to get it back?

    Anyone know why my TB macbook pro's battery is like this?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 11:26 PM PST

    97% battery health fully charged only lasts ~2 hours. I've had the laptop for while now so its definitely not indexing anything.

    It's a 2018 13' touch bar macbook pro, 2.3 ghz i5 8gb 500 gb

    This is pretty infuriating honestly

    Why are some tunes available on Apple Music but not iTunes?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 11:13 PM PST

    Title. I don't want to use Apple Music, just iTunes, and some tunes (like the official track for the theme to Disenchantment) can only be found on Apple Music. Why?

    My iPhone 7+ battery isn’t what it used to be.

    Posted: 28 Dec 2018 12:47 AM PST

    So before my iPhone 7+ battery would last me almost all day. Now I can barely go maybe 2 hours with lots of use or 5 hours if it's mostly on standby. I just looked and my battery health is at 78%, I scheduled an appointment to go have my battery replaced but with it at 78% will I feel a decent change?

    I don't even really know if they'll replace the battery due to having my phone in places where it possibly could have water damage ( never dunked in water but it's gotten wet)

    “Play Next” was my favorite, most used featured. It’s too bad it’s unreliable.

    Posted: 27 Dec 2018 07:47 PM PST

    Plug it into the car via USB or CarPlay (where I and most people I know play music most), and the option disappears. In fact, after they took the feature away and brought it back, it hasn't worked right.

    But when it was first released it was my favorite and most used feature. It's really too bad.
