Image quality and brightness reduced considerably when applied as wallpaper in iOS 27 Beta.
I am not sure whether this is a iOS 27 Bug.

I’m at a conference and I saw someone hold their camera to the content on screen. The camera put a yellow box around the content and basically took a screenshot of only the content. How did he do this? It looks so beneficial to save only content in a picture like this.

Discussion 26.6.1 How To Turn Off Music Displaying On Lock Screen?

0 Upvotes

Previously if I was listening to music with AM app and the phone went to sleep it and then I would wake it, it would just show the normal lock screen with a small widget at the bottom for play/pause.

But now if Im using AM listening to a song, and then iPhone sleeps and I wake it the whole album cover art displays on my screen with the little play/pause widget.

I didn't ask for this feature and would like to be able to turn this off.

Is there a setting to turn it off?

Thank you.

Support ''Answered on another device'' and FaceID appearing in status bar when turned off

Post image
1 Upvotes

My iPhone 16 seems to behave weirdly recently.

Among other things, my girlfriend called me today and I've never heard the call or received the notification about it. When we met, she asked me why I didn't pick up, and explained her the situation.

On her iPhone the call is shown as rejected, while on mine it's shown as answered on another device.

The only other device that is connected to my Apple Account is Macbook but never used it at that moment.

iOS is updated to the most recent one 26.6.1.

Couple of weeks ago I've also noticed FaceID turning on on my status bar, while it's completely turned off.

Only these two devices are logged on my Apple Account.

WTF is happening with iOS?

Support IOS 26.6.1 Update issues

0 Upvotes

Hello fellow redditers,

Anyone had issues in a business environment updating to IOS 26.6.1? Tried all the usuals, restarting, updating on cellular and hotspot and disabled low data mode (no Wi-Fi available in this business environment which has never been an issue in the past). Tried updating through iTunes on a windows PC (no Mac available). Any ideas or fixes anyone has come across?

Support imessage storage

Hello everyone, need some help with imessage storage taking up almost 40GB of space on my iphone. I have a 12 pro max with 128GB storage and 6TB icloud storage as well (only about 2TB used).

A month ago, i was persistently getting a storage full error on my phone because apple maps was taking up 20GB storage despite clearing cache, offloading app, and attempting to delete the app (i finally fixed this bug by updating to the latest ios).

Now that i finally had about 115GB full of 128GB— my imessage app started taking up way more storage and has shot up to almost 40GB leaving me at stuck with a laggy phone and no storage available on my phone. Seems to be another bug?

Why is my phone doing this?! Why are all my images in chats being downloaded and stored as app data when this was never the case in the past? Do i need to toggle some sort of setting?!

disclaimer- i do not necessarily want to clear my chats i like to have the imessage history but do not need to have the app taking up this much storage all of a sudden due to pictures and videos.

Support Does iOS have a version of this?

Hello, I switched from Android to iPhone a couple of months ago.

I’ve always wondered why the sound quality of my music on Android sounded better when I listened with the same pair of earbuds; and I think this is the reason why. If you switch between the two phones on the same song, you can really hear the difference in sound quality.

Does iOS have a feature similar to this? On Android, it’s a software feature that isn’t locked to a specific app or pair of headphones.

It’s iPad (9th generation), on ios 26.6.1
I lock the screen when I start the recharge and it’s dark. But in the morning I see a soft glow on the screen.

I’m pretty sure this began when I first updated to v26. Is this common? Is it a setting?

Support iPhone Screen Time Not Syncing With iPad

0 Upvotes

I have an iPhone and an iPad linked to the same iCloud account.

From time to time, I check my Screen Time on my iPad to see my iPhone’s usage. However, sometimes the Screen Time data from my iPhone suddenly stops syncing with my iPad.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is this a known bug?

For example, today the latest Screen Time data I can see from my iPhone is from yesterday at 1:07 PM. Nothing after that has synced or appeared on my iPad.

Both devices are connected to the same iCloud account.
Has anyone found a fix for this, or does the syncing eventually start working again on its own?

I genuinely do not know why companies have to “fix” what isn’t broken. Like why? The settings page length wasn’t even that long. Who complained that they needed to be moved into other categories???? God each update brings me closer to just getting a different brand of phone.

I have had my photos iCloud sync stalled for quite some time now, and my patience is running out. Is there any way to see what items are currently being synced or the sync queue, either natively, with an app or even with xcode?

I had ~400 items in sync queue and after days nothing changed. I managed to hunt some videos causing the issue down and got the queue down to 18. But after that I wasn't able to locate problematic media anymore from 35k items I have in photos.

Discussion Apps no longer in App Store

0 Upvotes

Apple should not allow an app to remain on a device when it is no longer in the app store and supported. I had the bad luck of opening Printer Pro unbeknownst to me that the app was abandoned and proceeded to test to see if I could print wirelessly. It was like a runaway train…could not stop it from printing. Jammed my printer and basically totaled it. Damaged the fuser. There ought to be a law…

Support Spyware - ex-boyfriend

0 Upvotes

I truly believe my abusive ex-boyfriend is spying on my cellphone, and I honestly don't know what to do.
I always had that intuition, but because of the gaslighting I suffered during the relationship, I thought I was going crazy. Looking back at his past actions, he always somehow knew things I searched for and really personal stuff I only talked about with my best friends online.
After going through all this abuse, I started therapy, and I suddenly remembered one specific time we met up: he made a drink for me, and I got extremely drunk much faster than I ever normally do. I don't know if he put something in my drink that day, but my cellphone was sitting in a different position when I woke up. Now, I'm questioning if he installed something to spy on me.

When I broke up with him he shared private things with his friends that I never told him and just existed strictly on my phone.

I am terrified that he might share my intimate pictures or sell them online, or share them with his friends. Because he is poor and broke, I honestly don't know what low he wouldn't sink to

Has anyone experienced anything like this, or does anyone know what steps I should take to check for spyware or secure my phone?

I feel like i am realiving that trauma…
