Trying to give Apple money is not always easy. I’ve later found out (Through Reddit of course, not through some helpful error message from Apple) that the your Apple Account’s 2FA phone number needs to be of the same country as your developer account…which doesn’t make any sense.
I’ve started seeing this more and more (using the latest version of iOS 26) lately. It happens across various apps, so it is probably an OS issue: The area where the keyboard would be is completely opaque with a solid color. Tapping there doesn’t do anything, and the rest of the UI just scrolls behind it as it would with the actual keyboard. Oddly it does not seem to happen when leaving a screen…
For more than a year now 1Password has a bug where it auto-locks itself every ~10 seconds on the machine you are connected to via screen sharing…but only if “High Performance” screen sharing is selected. This has also been discussed on the 1Password Forums already. I almost don’t want to know what kind of weird macOS edge case that bug hits.
Even when the tab bar is collapsed, the thumb is still inexplicably un-grabbable if it’s below a certain threshold in the viewport. Although it’s hard to be sure if it’s actually broken or just a “skill issue” when the visible touch target is less than half a millimeter wide. (As it is on my 13 mini…) This is hard to show, I tried recording a video – but without seeing the finger itself it’s just…
It’s almost impressive what a miserable, useless piece of crap the Shortcuts app remains. First off: No actual concept of versioning or upgrades for shared shortcuts. Sharing shortcuts happens via weird iCloud URLs rather than being an actual aspect of the system. So to update a shortcut, do you just add it again? No indication of what that will do before you press the button. Will it error out?…
Hold up. I thought Liquid Glass was supposed to make UI elements not be in the way of my ✨content✨? Edit: Turns out we already had that exact same bug four years ago. Isn’t it nice for some things to remain stable in these trying times?
Setting aside the fact that I needed to sign up for an account before I was even able to enable Bluetooth on my new Denon speaker, this screen in its app was funny: The Update Later button remained disabled. I waited for several minutes, switched to other apps and back a few times to give it a chance to update (the button state, I mean) but no dice. Not a big deal because I could just update later…
The two cardinal sins of displaying image attachments on social media or instant messengers – cropping and overlays. Even my most normie friends these days have learned to send a “might be cropped” warning alongside photos or screenshots where important details are not right in the center. Because we’ve all been burned often enough by some smart algorithm that had to shave 20 pixels off, just so…
Call me crazy, but isn’t Siri is kinda… suggesting… that I do in fact have Slack, YouTube and Overcast on my phone? Meaning that those should be search terms that have results? (Search was actually just completely broken until I rebooted – nothing showed any results.)
All three of the files on top have been created/exported/transferred in the exact same way: Exported from the recently discarded (severely underrated, btw) Clips app, then sent (all in one transfer) via AirDrop. How on earth is it possible for them to have different cases on the file extension?!
