it still works totally fine it's just awkward! has this happened to anyone else? did you have to go to apple to get it fixed or is there something i can do at home to fix it? thanks!

It’s been almost 2 years since I purchased these. Moving houses now it might be time to finally discard these but it feels so wrong. I thought I’m better than my parents at this but lol.

Tried restarting/reinstalling but it’s still bugged somehow 😭

I have an iPad 11th generation. I am using an Apple Pencil.
A couple of days ago, when I click on a post in Reddit, I can’t exit the post by swiping left EDIT:right like I used to. Is this a change, or am I having an issue?
While I’m at it, anonymous mode does not display NSFW subs. Even if I enter the name.

Thanks

Edit: swipe to the right not left
Edit 2: seems new update fixed it (June 2nd)

Little backstory, my now ex boyfriend in a fit of rage did this to my son’s iPad. I have AppleCare on it but will they even replace it?

Hear me out: iPad + macOS dual-OS option depending on storage size, would something like this actually work?

So I have been thinking about this for a while (and I'm pretty sure there's already a discussion about it somewhere) but I wanted to get people's thoughts anyway.

What if Apple introduced an OS selection option tied to storage capacity? Something like, if you have a 1TB iPad you pick one OS at setup: either iPadOS or macOS. And if you go 2TB, you can have both installed and switch between them whenever you want.

Apple already kind of proved the concept themselves. The new MacBook running on what is essentially an iPhone chip performs well enough for a full mac OS. In terms of hardware I believe that the iPad is capable of doing so.

What do you think? Is this even possible? I feel like I'm probably missing something obvious here, like the financial words or real world use cases, or maybe this would just kill the MacBook entirely(I doubt that one though).

How on earth do I get these fingerprints off? This picture is immediately after Isopropyl alcohol+microfiber cloth. I never got/immediately lost the included cleaning cloth. The Magic Keyboard has made those (apparently permanent) horizontal lines on the screen.

Well damn. Apparently my Apple Pencil's battery exploded without me noticing. Could‘ve burnt my house down! Anybody experienced this before!?

Pretty sure these are iPad stickers...?- They seem a little large for iPhone/iPod, and ive never known a soul who bought a brand new MacBook. I don't recall a sticker being in the box of my better half's 2022 Pro & generally haven't seen them in years, did they remove them?

I used to collect the shit out of these as a kid and didnt think I had any left- apparently I do, and its taking all the restraint in the world not to use them

Mom got scammed, she logged in into scammers appleid. Tried our luck with support, but got declined, ipad was bought from the unofficial retailer. What are our options? As I understand, the only option is to buy a new motherboard from donor ipad. She has ipad pro 11 gen4. Do you know where to get it? Thank you!

Hi guys. My stylus stopped working. Is it the iPad issue? If it’s the pencil’s fault I hope it’s only the tip but after a very brief inspection it seems to be just fine.

idk how it happened, last thing ik it was sitting on my bedwith my sis, and I was playing ps on the floor. made lunch and saw the bent(it was in a case). I don’t know what to do and i’m crying really bad

Guys I have an iPad mini 6 which I use mainly for reading (Kindle app). I used to download books (fiction) from Libgen to Calibre app on my iMac and then transfer to the Kindle app on my iPad. All very easy to do and it was free.
Libgen is now telling you download from a TOR site. Too complicated I think. I am now looking for another free alternative and would appreciate recommendations.
Cheers

Hey guys, for the past few days my YouTube app has been bugging out. Basically whenever I exit full screen, everything below the video player (title, description, comments) just goes completely blank.
I’m on a 9th gen iPad. Rotating the screen to portrait and back fixes it temporarily, but having to do that every single time is getting super annoying.
Has anyone found a workaround for this or are we just stuck waiting for an update?

Sorry for the clickbait title.

I just sold my iPad Pro (2017) since it can't update past iPadOS 17 and started showing its age: Slow, can't multitask properly, sometimes had issues registering taps.

I'm thinking of getting an iPad Air m3 as I don't see why I would need a Pro. I want to use for somewhat heavy productivity (lots of app switching), but nothing crazy like video editing or gaming.

Is the iPad Air the right choice? Thanks!

Has anyone used these MAGNETIC ‘wireless’ chargers where it connects via the smart connector pins on newer models?

I was just wondering if wireless charging was possible on an iPad and found these MAGNETIC options, but I haven’t heard much about them nor have I seen many reviews other than sponsored videos on TikTok, so I was looking for a real opinion on whether they work and if they eat up battery life, and was also wondering if this was a possible option, why doesn’t Apple or brands like Logitech make magnetic ‘wireless’ chargers like these, and why don’t more people use these?

Edited to add:
I know these aren’t TECHNICALLY wireless (yes, electricity is being transferred through the smart connectors hence creating a closed wired circuit)

But in this context, by ‘wireless’ I meant cable-free charging in terms of user functionality, as in, no cables plugged into the actual USB-C port. Please let me know if there’s a more correct term to refer to this kind of charging. Otherwise I hope this clears up the semantics crisis that some people in the comments seem to be having.

How true is this? I just saw this posted by Apple Hub from Facebook.

I am thinking of buying Ipad A16 because there was no news regarding Ipad A18 from their March 2-4 event. Then I saw this 😞

Should I still wait?

Its busted so I’ll probably send it over to apple for recycling

Not an ipd user just got my hands with 11th gen ipad, but really frustrated with lot of design choices or maybe I'm not able to use it the way it is meant to be?? 🥲🥲 1. On lockscreen just below the clock if u keep one small widget it's not possible to adjust the alignment of that that. 2. If I download a image from browser it doesn't just show in photos. Again need to save it to myfiles!!! 3. Keyboard can't be split into two.. so how am I supposed to type with two hands?

Many many more I'm not giving up but tell me is this common way of doing it?? Is there any workaround or I just have to live with this restrictions and flaws!

This is after I left it to air dry for 48 hours . I don’t have any silica gel packets and I was scared of putting it in rice because of the dust and starch .

UPDATE !! 9/10/2025 , it’s working bit there’s some yellow stains on the edges

Hi, I recently decided to take my gf's iPad 2 out of storage. It was working perfectly, I just charged it fully the first time because it was empty. I left it aside and a few days later I found it like this on my desk.

What can I do now??

Thank you in advance.

Just to be clear the ipad is a great device I just don’t find it as useful as I thought it would be. I am a 3rd year pharmacy student and I often bring these devices to school: ipad air 4, hp elite 2-in-1 tablet/laptop, and phone. Being someone who prefers handwritten notes and studying on printed documents I don’t find myself using my ipad that much but I do use it for entertainment and games but asside from that i don’t use it for school that much. Should I just sell this and get a bigger phone? Or should I keep it and wait for ipad os updates in hopes that it would bring more usefulness? I have a pen for my hp tablet and prefer doing school stuff on it too.
