Example: random number texts me, presumably someone from the past. Intuitively I click the profile bubble/previous i area, and precariously hold down? the number itself and often accidentally call it. Yikes

Currently it only shows this month. But like if I'm at the end of the month I'd like to see the start of next month. Like if it's the 31st it basically says there's NO events. Then one day later they will all pop up.

Any app have a good widget to display this, or is there any functionality for this?

TY in advance

I can’t simultaneously use YouTube Music and call someone on Discord without the music being ridiculously loud. The control center has a volume slider under the music tab, but it just… doesn’t work? Raising my friend’s mic volume to max on Discord barely helps at all either, that’s just how loud the music is in comparison. I’ve tried finding answers online and it’s either outdated information or just flat out wrong. Am I missing something here or does this just not exist for whatever reason? Is there an app I can download to fix this? I know some other companies have separate apps.

(forgive me if this is the wrong sub or tag. i’m not an avid reddit user)

I noticed first on instagram, but I just realized it might be a system wide change. Is it me or has it actually changed?

Am I the only one annoyed by the “frequently used” emoji keyboard?

It doesn’t seem accurate for one. I’ll accidentally click an emoji one time. And it’s on recently used for months!

But also, why can’t I just make a custom page? Choose my favorites to always be in their designated place. Instead of them playing musical chairs and me accidentally sending hearts to my boss lmao. It’s genuinely annoying and completely unnecessary. A custom keyboard would be amazing. But it seems like it’s never even been considered.

While searching for Find My I stumbled upon this Step-by-Step Help app. Never seen this before. Anyone know anything? I’m on iOS 27 developer beta 3.

I have Apple One, Premier Family. Have at least 4 other family members on my plan.

Apple recently, with version 26.4, allows family members to add their own credit card so that I am not responsible for their purchases.

Having a hard time setting this up with my brother over the phone. He is out of state so I can't be there to guide him.

I have told him to go into Settings > Account > Family Sharing and add his credit card. He has done that.

The thing is, from what I remember, you should be able to press and hold that credit card and drag it to the top of the queue, above my credit card. It then becomes the default card of payment.

For some reason, he can't do that on his iPad.

Can someone provide me with instructions on how he can make his credit card the default so that I am not dinged for his purchases under the family sharing plan?

Hey all,

So I have over 120,000 messages backed up on my icloud account, I have it set to save all messages forever.

However, I am having a difficult time accessing all of the previously shared files (photos, videos, documents). When going to the shared media in a text thread, it only shows roughly 40 photos dating back to only a few weeks to a few months. There is no download more or download all button that I can find.

I'm looking to access photos that were shared in my chats dating back years. With everything backed up, there should be a way to access all of this, right? What's the point of having it back up if you can't access on messages or shared media.

Thanks for any help!

When you change your wallpaper, it looks great on the lock screen, but once you unlock your phone the wallpaper photo becomes faded. The only fix I’ve found is turning the phone off and on.

Anybody know of a fix that doesn’t require a full reboot???

I have an iPhone, Mac and iPad for school.

The iPad is really just for note taking.

I like the idea of synching everything between my iPhone and iPad in case I have an emergency with one, I can at least use the other.

My question is about iCloud storage. When I synch stuff between the devices (example photos). And it’s already set up to store the photos in iCloud, do the device backups actually use iCloud space for the multiple backups of those photos in addition to the space already in iCloud?

I have two kids, both under 13. One kid got a phone a couple of years ago set up with strict but fair parental guardrails. Second get got an old phone just now to play with and take photos and text us/ his older sibling.

Recently discovered that older kid learned the screen time password and while I assume nothing nefarious happened, I’d like to see what apps she has on her phone. When I go to the App Store and look at “apps and purchases”, I only see myself and the younger kid. Purchase sharing is turned off universally, and the parental controls are really similar between the two kids though the older one has a newer phone and the younger an iPhone 6.

Am I missing some settings or something that is preventing me from viewing the older kids app in the same way I can see the younger ones? I can certainly take her phone and look at what she has, but being able to remotely view what either kid is playing with would be certainly useful.

Hello,

Over the last few days I’ve noticed my phone (iPhone 15, iOS 26.5.2) turning on the hotspot whenever tf it feels like it. I’m a delivery driver so I need to manage my battery and phone temp and this is causing me issues.
I carry my iPad & MacBook with me and have turned off the automatic connection option on both & even turned off WiFi completely on both but the issue persist. Anytime I turn off the hotspot toggle from the control center the “allow others to join” option is turned on and vice versa. Idk when this began but it must have been going on for awhile.

Thank you in advance

Hello! I already tried clicking the account icon, account settings, and app updates but I can’t seem to find the “Sign Out” option.

Send help hahaha. Would appreciate it!

Hi there

TLDR: I am missing a lot of data in Minecraft after restore, even though it was included in iCloud backup. Any tips?

I had to completely delete and restore my sons iPad in order to update to the newest OS. Not enough available space. Most important was his Minecraft app and all the data. I made sure it was included in the iCloud backup and did two backups 30 minutes apart in case one failed. All good so far.

I deleted and restored as I have done many times before and chose the newest backup. All apps installed corrrectly. All photos are there, messages and data from other apps. But there are no data at all from Minecraft.

Any tips are much appriciated.

Thanks.

I’m just honestly expressing my pure annoyance at this. I’m fairly certain it’s due to Liquid Glass. It used to be when using the video controls, the captions would lift up above the scrubber bar so you could still see what they were when scrolling. Now they are entirely hidden by the Liquid Glass bar.

I think I didn’t notice it for a while because I just hadn’t watched non-English media in a while where I needed the captions. Sometimes I need to find my place or I want to speed through a portion of the video but still understand what is happening. This is entirely broken now.

None of the fixes for Liquid Glass fix this issue. You can’t even move the captions on screen or adjust in anyway so they are not covered. Switching to a larger font just means half the text is obscured and it look ugly.

I’m not even a Liquid Glass hater, I genuinely do not care how it looks. It’s ruined the video viewing experience by killing captions and covering the screen entirely when using the scrubber.

I was on the subway and suddenly I completely lost cellular service, which is normal because it's underground. However, I got off the train and my service didn't come back. Left my phone alone and hours later it still didn't come back. I did not drop my phone or do anything out of the ordinary. I was holding my phone the entire time, didn't drop/shake/bend it, and did nothing out of the ordinary. I've not experienced any significant issues with my cellular service before.

Checked my Cellular tab and it says "Issue Detected." Diagnostics flagged both outdated software and potential hardware issues. Location services still work. Notably, the space next to Modem Firmware is completely blank.

I tried updating my phone to the latest version of IOS 18 because I've been dreading IOS 26, but after downloading my phone got stuck on on the "Verifying Update" screen, even after force restarting it twice.

I'm planning on connecting my phone to my laptop when I get home from work and updating to IOS 26 that way to try to make sure the download is as stable as possible. I have not reset my network settings/wiped my phone yet. I also have an appointment at the Apple Store tomorrow, but I'd like to try to resolve this on my own first.

Does anyone have any idea why this happened and how I can fix it? Please help me

Hello All,

Yesterday I went into my messages to search for a specific text and this is what appeared. I can't search for anything whatsoever anymore. I have not updated my phone recently as I have read that after updating this can sometimes occur. I've tried some various other "remedies" from year+ old posts I've come across but nothing has worked yet. Any ideas? Currently on iOS 26.3.1. There is an update available 26.5.2 but I don't have enough storage space to install it currently. Should I clear space and install to see if it fixes, or does anyone know any other fixes besides having to update?

Thanks!

I recently bought an iPhone 17 PM after selling my old iPhone in March and transferring all data to an Android. I downloaded the Move to IOS app on the Play store and tried about 5/6 different times (with and without the cable method) yet nothing worked.

I searched around online and found the following version of Move to IOS you should download: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/apple/move-to-ios/move-to-ios-3-5-0-release/

This ended up moving everything I needed within an hour, but it was such a painful process which I will never go through again.

Working as of 21/07/2026

Hello everyone! Over the last month, I have experienced very annoying and frustrating issues with iMessage, and was wondering if anyone can relate or has a fix. So in groupchats with Apple and Android users, 3 main issues happen. The first one is just slow texting in general. Messages take longer than normal to send, some messages fail to send all together, and more. The next issue is my messages randomly get changed to SMS instead of the usual RCS. It goes away within a couple of hours, but happens very often and I have not found a fix. The final issue is that the iMessage app, usually when I try to reply to a message or hold down a message in a groupchat, completely freezes for seconds to maybe a minute and remains this way after several attempts at closing the app. Can anyone else relate? I currently have an iPhone 16 Pro with the latest software update. Another friend is experiencing the exact same issues, neither of us have found a fix.

The icons looked normal yesterday until I woke up to this. I already tried the force restart and the normal restart so if anybody else knows what the problem is pls let me know!

i'm going on a flight and want to download a series to watch as a zip onto my iphone. i don't have much storage and the .zip file itself is 5gb and even after clearing out space i'd only have about 5gb/128 free after downloading the zip. i'm running iOS 17.2.1; is there any way to only unzip one specific file at a time?
