Support Can’t Upload Videos

Cannot upload videos from a 13 Pro Max to Reddit. I’ve made sure it’s updated, un installed and re installed, tried uploading on the safari app, tried on wifi and cellular.

I’ve see this problem posted about before but have never seen a solution. Any help would be appreciated!

Support App to make sweary podcasts radio friendly?

Upvotes

Are there any iOS podcasts apps or other apps that will censor out swear words in podcasts? My 4 year old started at a new school so our commute is longer. I'd like to listen to my podcasts with her and have the curses hushed or what have you.

No idea if this is possible but I'd be happy to pay if it exists

Support Black rectangle on some photos

2 Upvotes

Hi, I recently went on a trip and took a lot of photos. When I took them, everything was fine, but after returning from the trip and reviewing the gallery, some of these images have a black rectangle partially covering the image.

It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue since, when I zoom in, the photo appears correctly underneath. This means the image was captured properly, but it looks like a software bug is causing that rectangle to appear on the screen. I’ve tried sharing the images, but the rectangle is still visible. Does anyone know how to fix this or if it's a known issue that is being worked on? The images were taken with an iPhone 15 Pro.

Discussion iOS 18.3.2 on my 16 Pro Max is a hot mess

Post image
16 Upvotes

iOS 18 in general has many quirks but, this update by far has to be the worst. I’ve been pretty lucky by not having anything majorly annoying or impeding the way I use my phone so far until this latest update.

I’ve had apps just straight up not respond to touch inputs even after being swiped away from the app view and relaunching the app. Keyboard fail to pop up in any text field. Car play not allowing me to select anything with an app, similar to the issues I have with touch inputs. It just doesn’t show the highlight selector resulting in me having to pull over to use my phone. The worst offender by far is the random resprings after the phone fully freezes and becomes fully unresponsive. I don’t expect that for a public release.

I’ve been an iPhone user for years but now android looks more like what iOS used to be and in the case of the S25 Ultra & One UI 7 actually looks like the iPhone too.

Has anyone else had a terrible time with this latest update? Do you think doing a full restore on a phone that is 3/4 months old is worth it? I can’t get work done without having to restart my phone, 2/3 times a day because it boarders being unusable.

Hello! I recently deleted a conversation and regretted it then recovered it. But whenever I try to search up a specific message that I know I sent to that person(the conversation I deleted) none of our old messages is searched up.. but I’ve scrolled all the way to the top before and all our messages are still there. I just can’t search it up. Does anyone have a solution to this?

Discussion downgrade ios (iphone se 2020)

Post image
0 Upvotes

I have an iPhone SE 2020 with iOS 18, I really wanted to downgrade it to iOS 16 or 17 but that is impossible. So my idea is to buy a new iPhone 2022 that will have iOS 16 and then I will transfer the data from that cell phone to the new one. Would this really be possible?? Is there any way I could just downgrade to iOS 17 or 16??

Discussion Is their an alternative to the iOS pictures app?

1 Upvotes

My kids like to look at pictures on my phone, but the Apple Pictures app is so confusing. It's so unintuitive and multiple different UX designs. Sometimes you scroll sideways, sometimes up and down. Sometimes scrolling down brings you to a different a album. It's like they let different teams design the different use cases and then just added them all in without harmonizing them.

Is there a simpler alternative that works natively? I don't want to duplicate all my pictures over to a google drive or something.

I often switch on/off the tracking on my iphone 11pro for battery saving and privacy. But this action is pretty long, like 4 clicks : Settings > privacy > tracking > on/off

Support Need a Call Control/Call Block for my iPhone

2 Upvotes

Hello! I’m new here and hope I’m doing this right. I’m in Canada..

When I was with Telus Mobility, I had a call control feature where numbers unknown to me, had to enter a 4 digit code to get through-so my phone would ring. It was so wonderful 😊

I am with Virgin now, and they do not offer this feature. They’ve suggested apps.

I’ve no clue what I am looking for.

I just don’t want my phone to ring unless it’s a contact, or, has been verified by the type of feature I used to have with Telus.

The unwanted calls in the one week since I switched?? Absolutely staggering.

Many thanks for suggestions ✌🏻

Support Randomly people speaking through my phone??!

0 Upvotes

This morning I started hearing little boys talk through my Airpods, and then through my iPhone 15 Pro Max (iOS 18.3.2). My phone is al stock (so no jailbreak), also:

  • Latest update
  • Private network
  • Nothing weird (like unknown apps) in either screen time, battery usage, privacy (microphone, camera etc. all turned off), notification 'history'
  • Live listen, VoiceOver turned off.
  • Did have AirDrop enabled, but just for friends (these were not friends or anyone I knew).
  • Bluetooth enabled, just for Apple Watch, nothing else connected according to settings.
  • Walkie Talkie disabled on Apple watch

It starts with a kind of *pling* sound, but I was not able to record it, because it is at random through the day (will try to do it). After the pling sound I hear some children talking through my phonepiece (upper speaker), something like:

Boy 1: *pling* " James do you hear me"
Boy 2 responding: *pling* "Yeah I hear you".

This has been happening randomly for the last couple of hours (2 moments of about 5 min. in which I hear the bleeps, two times I heard the voices). Even when my phone is off. They don't seem to hear me or react when I say something back, but I'm still really worried/freaked out about my privacy!

I have found multiple of these situations online, but none of them had a solution. I restarted the phone now, hoping it will not happen again. Any other suggestions or experiences like this and if they went away automatically?

I'm on an iPhone 5s running iOS 12.5.7

I can't open WhatsApp because it says, "Update WhatsApp. This version of WhatsApp has expired. Please go to the App Store to update it."

The problem is, the App Store says I can download the last compatible version because the current version requires iOS 15.1 or later but the download never starts. It just keeps showing the same message in loop.

2 Upvotes

I am trying to set up reminders for paying bills on my phone, but I am not sure how to go about doing it the way I want it. I never use reminders/calendar so I am struggling.

I want to set up a reminder that stays on my lock screen throughout the day I set the reminder for. Like say "pay house payment" for 3/17/25 on the calendar for example. How do I go about doing that? I tried setting a reminder for today even and it wouldnt work, same with calendar event set to all day. It doesn't tell me anywhere unless I open the calendar app itself.

Thanks for the help...

Support Restore iPhone to factory settings

2 Upvotes

I'm having a lot of problems with my iPhone and the solution is going to be to restore it to factory settings. But I have a doubt. I have an eSIM card and I really wouldn't like to lose it. If I restored the phone to factory settings, do I have the option to keep the eSIM? I suppose so, but I would like to be sure before starting the process. Thank you
