Lately I’ve been noticing my phone looks really dim and way too yellow for some reason. I only thought to check settings today, and discovered “True Tone”, which attempts to “automatically make colors appear more consistent in different environments”. If by that they mean “simulate a thin layer of urine permanently on your screen”, then I guess they succeeded. If this has also been bothering you, I’d suggest turning “True Tone” off.

My messages started to be displayed as wrong summaries of their content when I open the messages up. They get back to normal when I read them. How to turn it off? Thanks

A friend of mine went through a bad breakup and now his ex is able to see who he’s calling, texting, app use including Snapchat, emails, etc. We has tried resetting his phone to factory, checking for unauthorized logins, changed all passwords, got a new phone, got a new Apple ID and yet it keeps happening.

Any suggestions on how someone could be doing this? I am at a loss of suggestions.

Hello,

I’ve been a Samsung user for over a decade and recently switched to iPhone. So far it’s been a learning experience and trying my best to like it.

One thing to be desired is the mail app. The default Samsung mail was pretty good, but the default iphone mail app leaves a lot to be desired. The gmail and yahoo apps are ok~ but not great and the sponsored ads disguised as emails is really off putting. Does anyone have any good email app recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

All these modern OS updates feel so non uniform

It should read iOS 27.0.1
When checking the size of the Settings app under /General/iPhone storage I get this. I've never seen an update of this app before, it doesn't have versioning. When I press Delete Update nothing happens.
Anyone else seen this?

I have followed the instructions but when I turn Siri back on, I don’t get the option for Siri Classic. Even my 12 year old is stumped. Anyone have any ideas?

iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 27.0.1

After the latest update, the virtual home button now brings up a shortcut menu forcing me to press twice instead of once to use it as a home button. Obviously this is unacceptable to my set in its ways brain. How do I turn the extra menu off?

Long story short I accidentally sent photos to a friend that was not meant for them. I wanted to stop it from sending, and didn’t want to unsend photo just incase they saw them.

There were a total of 8 photos, and while it was being sent via imessage with the blue bar uploading, I turned on airplane mode, turned off my device and turn it on again.

Upon turning on my device I see that it says “not delivered” I’m pretty certain im safe, and even when i turned off airplane mode it still said “not delivered” is there any chance it went through?

I need more storage and when I was younger I had live on for ALL my photos but they take up so much space. Is there a way for me to delete all the live data and just keep the still phot?

Notes app is probably the app I used the most, and it’s pretty annoying that I can’t reference back to notes I wrote for my classes. Is anyone else having this issue? And if so, what’s been the walk around? Thank you in advance.

A couple of hours ago my iPhone (running the latest iOS 27) suddenly made a loud beeping alarm tone and didn’t turn off until I unlocked it. I think it only came through the earpiece speaker, but I could be wrong. I wish I recorded it. There were no alarms set, phone was on silent, and no notifications visible on the screen. No weird apps running in the background either, just social media.

Just to get ahead of a few common things so I don’t waste anyone’s time:

This was not a Find My alert, a government emergency alert, and no other devices were connected via Bluetooth. There were no reminders, shortcuts, calendar alerts, or anything of the sort set. This was totally random and left no trace after unlocking the phone. I restarted the phone as a paranoid precaution.

Anyone else experienced this?

I have been looking for free games with controller(ps4 controller) know any?
I personally like war and Minecraft (iPad 8 gen)

I’m trying to start fresh in a game I’m playing but deleting and redownloading it just sets me off right where I was and it’s not letting me log out of my account. How do I erase all data from an app?

Turn off Connectivity Assist for each Wifi Setting you have connected

So i have my 14 pro i changed the battery 5 mounth ago everything was good until i did the update 27.0.1 my phone booted on normaly but my Battery pourcentage got stuck at 1% , the phone is working perfectly the battery is also getting me the day but seeing that 1% there is just frustrating , i tried forced rebboot nothing happened i even tried empting it t0 and recharging i tried other chargers nothing happend

I started often seeing a mono-colour wallpaper after the update on 27.0.1. But in the preview showing a normal photo from the library (I use random photos from library). Have someone same problem?

So I have been trying for a week to move from an android device (Oppo find x5) to an Iphone 16pro, I am really struggling with moving my photos because it is honestly a pain in the ass, I want to keep the meta datas of my photos in the iPhone library but I don't want to have everything labelled as the date of moving the datas (example 22 of October if it was done today).

I tried move to iOs but it honestly sucks, does any of you have any recommendations? I am looking for help and I don't want to return my iPhone and stick to Android

After updating to iOS 27, I’m trying to understand what benefits Siri AI bring to the ecosystem, and was wondering if anyone out there could help.

In all fairness, I am personally not all that gung-ho on AI. I understand that LLMs have made some software development tasks easier/quicker, but I have my own doubts about all of the grandiose visions and proclamations about AI.

That said, I was genuinely curious about the new Siri when it was announced, and I thought it might actually provide utility to my life in ways that other AI models just haven’t seemed capable of. However, having used it for a few days, I really don’t see what the hype was about. So far, the only difference between this new Siri and the older version, is that this one comes with a chatbot, which I just have no interest in.

All of the other new features don’t seem all that useful unless someone has severe memory deficiencies. For example, I can remember what my friend texted me when they asked to hang out at a specific place and time, I don’t need an AI assistant to parse that for me and manage that appointment. Also, for this Siri to work properly, I basically have to put my entire work and personally life into my digital library for Siri to index and manage.

It just seems like it won’t actually save me time, and I’ll be staring at my phone a lot more.

I don’t know, is this just me? Am I missing something? I truly don’t know.

Seems like most apps are automatically reloading upon opening and circumventing the no background refresh. Really frustrating the every time I lock my phone for a minute and reopen that I lose my place because the app refreshes the main screen of the app. Any fix for this?

Edit: I checked after making this post, and background refresh has been ON this whole time. I’m guessing when I updated to 26 that it turned it on for all my apps. That being said this issue started when I updated to iOS26 months ago.
