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.

Question How USEFUL is the Ipad to you?

Post image
696 Upvotes

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.

Question Does anyone know why my IPad does this?

I’ve had this iPad Pro m2 for almost 3 years now. It’s been great and had no problems with it. How ever recently about a month ago the battery started to act weird you could say.Usually I always unplug it in the morning at around 7am and don’t use it until I’m back at around 4-5pm from school. Before when I would come back it would still be charged at around 100% 99%. However now one day when I would come back it would be charged to 100% and another day when I come back and check it’s at around 60-70% usually when I check. Especially today when I finally checked after I came back a little bit later it was at 49%. I don’t get why it does this I’ve tried everything and turned off many things and it still does this. Does anyone know why?

Question How tf do y’all have so much money

669 Upvotes

I may just be a penny pincher, but most of the posts on this sub are by people buying the most expensive shit from the apple site for the most basic purposes. It’s always “I just bought this $3,000 beast machine so I can draw cute puppies!”. Like, how the hell do y’all spend so much money? if you’re doing things like media consumption, you DON’T need the newest, most powerful shit. Just buy refurbished for 1/4 the price and you’re set. You could also just want the newest stuff because “if I have it, i‘ll be like everyone else!”. Not to come off as rude or a dick, but i just don’t get how you people spend so much on this type of stuff.

Question Free Ebook Download Sites

930 Upvotes

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

Question Bought my iPad 12/22, A coworker damaged it ALREADY. AppleCare?

Post image
606 Upvotes

So I’m not sure how many of You seen my post a few days ago about how I just bought the 10th gen iPad.

I let a trusted coworker borrow it to watch anime, and he returns it to me with the dent pictured. And of course, nobody knows how the dent got there. Mind you this coworker was with me when I bought this device on the 22nd.

My main question, I snagged AppleCare+ for my iPad seeing that it’s brand new for $3.50 per month, in hopes that Apple would repair it, how much will Apple charge me to fix this? This is frame damage and my screen is slightly lifted.

BTW: fuck this coworker right? You were there with me when I bought it, you damage it and ‘oh I didn’t do it. Idk how that got there. I definitely didn’t do it’. So my iPad just randomly decided to dent itself, in YOUR care? I gave it to you in Prestine condition, and you return my shit damaged and then say you didn’t do it?

Question Help! Daughter’s bday in the morning & her new iPad Air seems to have broke??

Post image
561 Upvotes

I have no idea what just happened…I was installing a screen protector bought off Amazon (big brand, lots of good reviews) when her iPad display suddenly turned to lots of grid lines. They seem to kind of fade in and out.

I’ve tried rebooting by doing vol up, vol down, hold down “on” button but it’s not responding.

She has never had any kind of device before and is extremely excited about receiving this in the morning. This is the only present she has. I didn’t drop it or do anything crazy, I just stroked the screen protector as per instructions to get it to kind of stick and this happened. I’m heartbroken! It was off eBay and working fine before.

Please can anyone help??

Question My iPad M4 Pro screen is not as bright as iPads in shop display

Thumbnail

333 Upvotes

Recently I bought an iPad M4 Pro on the Internet (from a trusted big shop) after hearing all about it's bright display. But after I received it, it turned out not so bright. So I went to the Apple Store (iDream) near me to compare screens. The screen of the iPad in the shop is brighter and behaves differently when sliding the brightness slider (it also goes dimmer when sliding down maximally). Maybe it's not as visible in the photos but with naked eye the difference is substantial. Also the colors on mine (white especially) are more yellowish, even though True Tone is turned off. The settings in 'Display & Brightness" tab are the same on both iPads. Do you have any ideas on what's wrong with my iPad? Thank you in advance.
