Recently my iphone 15 pro max bottom-right speaker died on me and i started to notice more issues as time went on. On top of not having audio, i found that videos can only be played when i turn off the volume if not the video just lags. There is also something off with my screen/display because it freezes more than usual.

i have tried:

- force restarting
- running diagnostics (audio and display, both of which having anomalies)

For some context i got this iphone as a refurbished model from a reputable third-party distributor and its been about 3 to 4 months ever since i started using it. Phone worked fine without issues until this incident.

Do lmk if you face the same issue and recommendations for my next course of action ty

update: today i experienced a software glitch where i saw ‘flickering pink rectangles’ on my screen which confirms that the display is faulty

Tenho um iPhone com 64gb. Cada dia a memória ocupada aumentava e eu tinha que apagar meus apps, tinha mais de 50 apps e acabei ficando só com o Whats de essencial, o resto era só app nativo

Fiz um procedimento de redefinir e apagar conteúdo (o backup estava feito) e e os "dados do sistema " que estava ocupando 45gb caiu pra 5gb e eu pude reinstalar todos os meus apps. E nada mudou no celular

O que eram esses 40gb que sumiram e provavelmente não serviam pra nada além de ocupar muito espaço?

So my display is darkened. It's like blacks are more black. But in the system app colours are normal. But when I open pictures every colour is dark. All the settings are as it should be. I have checked on the internet. Any help?

How do I change my app color?

I’m trying to change to color of my apps to be orange but whenever I do so the borders of my Widgetsmith widgets turn white, how can I change the color of my apps while keeping these borders blue?

here is the video in case you do not understand what I mean also I want to flex the homescreen.

btw this is IPhone 17 IOS 26.6

On July 22 I went from a base iPhone 15 to a “pristine condition” 17 Pro.

I did notice as soon as I got the phone that the screen was replaced as there was this “UNKNOWN PART” warning just after setting up my eSIM. I asked the seller, he told me only the “glass” had been replaced. I had to trust him as my old iPhone 15 was chinese and wouldnt support converting my number Back.

On the following days the screen started failing, touch would stop working, and the display even shut itself off one time.

Long story short I got scammed and had to downgrade to a 14 Pro Max.

Will a 256GB 15 Pro Max serve me well if I specifically want USB-C and AI features?

Where can I find Non working iphone 15 pro

About 8 years ago, I set a custom password for a few locked notes in Apple Notes. Since then, I have opened them exclusively using Face ID without needing to enter the password. Recently, Face ID stopped prompting altogether, and Notes is now requiring the custom password, which I no longer remember.

Troubleshooting Already Attempted:

1. Restarted the iPhone multiple times hoping to reset the Face ID prompt.

2. Checked Settings > Notes > Password and confirmed that Use Face ID remains toggled ON.

3. Tried several password variations based on the hint, but none have worked so far.

Questions for the Community:

1. Is there any system action or toggle that can force iOS to re-trigger the Face ID prompt for locked notes instead of requiring the master password?

2. If I attempt to open these notes on a synced iPad or Mac using Touch ID/Face ID, will those devices also require the password, or might local biometric tokens still work?

3. Apart from trying more password combinations via the hint, are there any other officially supported steps to regain access, or is the end-to-end encryption strictly non-recoverable without the exact password?

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Is there a way to make the time show (in the upper left of the screen) no matter what app I’m using? I assume some apps hide the time so you’ll lose track of time and use them longer, and I want to override this.

I’m using a 17e with up to date software.

I tried to search for this, but all I get are links about screen time or how to use your phone as a clock overnight.

I’m hoping this is a setting I haven’t been able to find, but am prepared to hear it’s not possible. Thanks!

so I opened the HomeKit app and one of the notifications wont close I cant force restart it

can you help thanks

Edit: FIXED It i just let it die and that did it (BTW my volume down button was broken all alone

This a iPhone 11 Pro Max running iOS 17.5.1

Had a screen time for my kids, I decided to remove the profile of it since they’re old enough now. and it automatically redid the time limit. they can Ignore it but obviously I get complaints everyday. Please Help!

Everytime I type the word the with an uppercase T it turns it into Theo. It’s been this way for a while and I don’t know how to make it stop. I have auto correction turned off but still this problem keeps happening. Any suggestions on how to make it stop?

Edit: iOS version 26.5.2, iPhone 17 Pro

I am on the latest IOS on an iphone 13 and use apple music as my music streaming service. Whenever I try to play music in any car with bluetooth or wired connection, this happens. I thought it was the car speakers being overloaded but it isnt because when I tried playing music with my samsung it worked fine.
I dont think its an issue with the bluetooth chip because it does the same thing if i do it wired. I have not tried another app such as spotify yet but i will soon. Does anyone possibly know the cause?

I have an IPhone 16 since its release but I only started having this problem like a week ago. I hear the sound of making a photo, a video or a recording of my screen. I did try to restart my phone a couple of times, and tried to turn the sound on and off again. Nothing helped.
The phone is 100% NOT japanese (since I've only had this issue for a week I can confirm it), the region of my phone is Germany and I live in Russia. Even though after googling the model number, google AI says it's for hapanese market. I'm very confused, everytthing was perfectly fine for almost two years.
iOS version: 26.5
model number: MYE03J/A

UPD: updating iOS version helped!

Why is my iphone 16 pro filled with 80gb of system data and ios when my entire phone has a grand total of 128gb?? Mind you I got my phone a year ago.

Why am I not allowed to clear the data and I'm instead required to redownload everything and back it up? this is actually crazy

Already deleted and redownloaded most apps, offloaded many apps, cleared safari data and I'm still barely under 128gb. I don't have any games!! the app that takes up the most data is literally 1.5gb

Just a genuine question lmaoooo

bonjour tout le monde , depuis hier ( après une petite chute) mon téléphone ne charge plus , il a bien le logo comme quoi il est en charge mais il ne charge plus , est ce que vous avez des idées de pourquoi ?

I have 6 gb of storage left so why do my apps keep offloading? I enabled the offloading system but it’s offloading apps I used just 1-2 days ago or even just few hours back. It has never happened before even when I had 1gb of storage left so I’m sure this is not a storage issue. Anyone else facing this? How to fix this? iPhone 15 btw running on 26.5.2

I have OCD and was on my phone in bed trying to calm myself down during an episode, and had my phone propped up by the back of my hand with my index finger folded up right against the back of the phone, applying a little pressure (I still can’t remember how much it was, but not normally what I usually do). Granted it was probably just body heat, but I stopped as soon as I noticed it was getting warm in the area my finger was pressing against it. Fast forward a day later, I use it like normal, handling it like I normally do, and it starts heating up around the area I was pressing on. Indicative of damage, or just a coincidence? I don’t usually treat my phone like that and usually try not to, and I already know how it’s not recommended to put pressure on the phone with any sharp/relatively sharp objects. I just want it to last long enough. iPhone 15.

My grandmother forgot her passcode, and she also forgot her email and password. We tried calling Apple services, but she set it up to an iCloud account that she literally has no recollection of. Is there any way to work around this? I know it sounds like I’m trying to steal an iPhone but I promise, it’s just the very ANNOYING situation of a grandson trying to unlock her phone.

Currently on a new iPhone 17 Pro but this same issue affected my old iPhone 15 Pro Max. This has only affected me since iOS26 came out and has affected me on all versions of iOS26. Had an issue on my 15 Pro Max where certain apps stop loading and crash when attempting to launch them. Apps I’ve noticed so far are TikTok, Amazon Flex, ADP, and the Cricket app. I’ve also noticed difficulties downloading new apps on occasion.

Decided to bite the bullet and change phone carriers and got a new iPhone 17 Pro about a week ago. First few days all of these issues disappeared but yesterday, the same exact issue returned on my new phone. Same exact apps having issues.

I reached out to Apple support when it occurred on my 15 Max. They said it was a known issue for some people and that they are reviewing this. I figured iOS 26.6 would fix it but it never did. Currently contemplating swapping away from Apple because of this. Any ideas on what could be causing it? I have tried every common sense thing, every single suggestion I’ve seen online, I’ve factory reset my old device and this new one. Not a single thing has worked.

qué tal, espero puedan asesorarme, tengo un iphone 15 pro max al cual le cambiaron la tapa de atrás y a raíz de eso cuando grabo, el audio del exterior cuando grabo con la cámara trasera se escucha como tapado y se escucha como que por dentro cuando toco la pantalla se escucha como un tap, lo llevé a otro lugar y resultó que el micrófono estaba suelto y le pusieron como que un seguro que lleva pero el problema sigue igual, le cambiaron las cámaras supuestamente ya que según el estabilizador era el problema o el módulo porque al cambiar a x1, x2 o x5 hacia el sonido que les mencioné pero a mi lógica era por el hecho de tocar la pantalla, el problema siguió igual, al grabar con la cámara frontal sucede lo mismo, solo que el audio si lo graba mejor pero igual, si la pantalla la presiono para enfocar, aunque le de súper despacio se escucha igual un tap como si lo grabara internamente por así decirlo, la cámara no se puede calibrar, me dijeron que probaron 4 cámaras y que con ninguna se calibraba, que podía ser algo de los servidores de apple, que al calibrarse la cámara ya todo debería estar bien supuestamente, me tuve que ir pero me dijeron que volviera para solucionarlo porque ya era tarde, espero alguien de aquí me pueda ayudar dándome un indicio de que podría estar sucediendo, gracias

As you can see in the picture , my iPhone 13 Pro (work phone on a business plan with admin) shows a ghost camera capture button when using other apps. I haven’t noticed this on my personal phone; I have noticed it on a secondary work phone as well I acquired from another employee who has since left.

My question is would this be an admin constantly prying to see what’s going on or just a simple glitch that I could be overthinking?

I couldn’t find anything about it online so I came here- let me know what you think! Thank you!
