Discussion Screen time error

Anyone know how to fix this? The screen time records the standby time as well? My previous iPhone never did this.
Basically whenever i put my phone on charge over night (on the magnetic charger) the phone records the screen time? It eventually increases my screen time and i am not able to figure out the actual screen time for me.

Support Iphone starts speeding up videos and audios in every app

2 Upvotes

hi guys, i just wanna share something I think its useful. I was watching videos from my Facebook and the audio got sped up then stopped. Tried on Insta, Spotify, and Tik Tok and they were all the same. I initially thought it was my JBL earbuds, asking AI and everything, restarted the earbuds and stuffs and nothing work. Until the bluetooth was off, the phone plays the video by itself and still got sped up, thats when I know its the phone. AI said its quite common for the new IOS 17+ so you guys can just restart the phone for everything to be back to normal. Hope that helps ☺️

Support Weird problem on iphone with Waze

1 Upvotes

I have a Carplay on my motorbike and my 17e connects and I've always been able to use Maps and Google Maps.

I recently tried Waze to test a new motorcycle feature but now, even after the end of my navigation, Waze warns me about speed bumps, narrow lanes etc etc. Even when I'm walking!

Waze isnt running so whats happening here?

Support AirTag help!

1 Upvotes

Hey guys! Probably just being paranoid but a little worried here. I have two flatmates ( but I’m currently not at the apartment) and in the past few days they’ve both started getting notifications that an AirTag is with them, and when they click on it it shows their exact routes to uni and back and everywhere else they’ve gone within the past day ( it does this each night at like 2 am). The thing is they both go to different campuses for classes. They’re both understandably worried but they only get the notifications when in the flat. When they try to ping it to make noise they cannot hear it. No one else has access to the flat.

Any explanation would be great! I assume someone up or downstairs has not claimed their AirTag or something, but that doesn’t explain why when they click on the AirTag on find my it shows my flatmates locations throughout the day?

Thank you so much in advance! I think it’s particularly worrying as there is a flatmate who is particularly vindictive and very unstable who just moved out, and they are scared that they are being stalked by said ex-flatmate

Support Cleaning gunk out of USB-C port

1 Upvotes

My iPhone doesn’t hold onto cables nearly as securely as it should. It’s definitely time to clear out the port.

Is there an Apple-approved kit or process for cleaning the USB-C port on my 16 Pro? On my Lightning port devices I could clean out the gunk (usually pocket lint) with a sturdy yet flexible piece of plastic. But with the connector in the middle of this port that’s not an option.

My old XR has been stuck on this black screen for almost a year now, is there any way to fix this without having to get it sent for professional repairs.

It heats up when charging suggesting its not an internal hardware problem, and it doesnt get detected by my pc. I have already tried the volume up, volume down, and power button thing to force restart it but nothing came up. Is there any way to get this fixed by myself?

Discussion Does anyone know where I can find a new/good condition housing for a black iPhone 5?

0 Upvotes

Hi the title basically explains it all, I have a slate black iPhone 5 that I want to restore, the screen is like brand new but the housing has definitely seen better days, does anyone know where I can get a new/good condition housing for it? I’ve checked eBay, AliExpress and even ifixit, and they’re either used ones with some wear on them or a completely blank one. I am not a huge fan of the super blank one so if anyone has any recommendations it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Support ringtone and alerts getting quieter daily

0 Upvotes

Hi! Is anyone else currently having an issue where the alarm volume (or rather, „Ringtone and Alerts“) in the settings keeps turning itself down?

I have an iPhone 17 and have been struggling with this since the last update. It’s incredibly annoying to have to check every evening if the „Ringtone and Alerts“ volume is set correctly, only to end up sleeping through the alarm in the morning because it’s extremely quiet...

A bit more info: My phone is permanently in silent mode (which shouldn't affect the playback of alarms, timers, music, or video audio), „Ringtone and Alerts“ is set not to change with buttons, and haptics are disabled in silent mode.

Thanks for any replies!

Support Totally Unfixable iPhone 11 Pro?

0 Upvotes

I found an old iPhone 11 Pro during a move.

In December 2024, the phone randomly blacked out and I was never able to revive it, so I ended up just getting a new phone. I tried plugging into mac, the volume & power button hold down, and practically everything that comes up when you google search how to restart iPhone, but the phone was never able to turn on again.

Everything was working fine before and during the day it died. I pretty much just turned on the phone and went to type my password in and then it turned off completely and never was able to turn back on again. It had about 30-40% battery life when it died. The battery was fine, screen fine, etc and I never had any major issues either it. It quite literally just died out of nowhere. The charging port was also fine.

I was wondering if anyone has any pro-tips or tricks, or if this has happened to anyone else and what they did.

Thanks!!
