A guy worked as an Apple Store Genius for 5 years. He repaired over 10,000 iPhones. He taught over 15,000 customers how to use them.
He said the same thing happened every single day: a customer would hand him a $1,200 iPhone, and he'd realize they were using it like a $200 phone from 2014.
"The iPhone has a built-in document scanner, a password manager, a sign language interpreter, a live translation system that works in real-time conversations, a sound recognition engine that alerts deaf users when a doorbell rings or a baby cries, a satellite emergency system that works with zero cell signal, a car crash detector, a text extraction tool that reads words from any photo, a background noise canceler for phone calls, and a health monitoring system that tracks everything from walking steadiness to hearing levels. Most people use it for texts, calls, Instagram, and a camera. That's a $1,200 computer running 5 apps."
He said Apple adds 50–100 new features with every major iOS update and never tells you about most of them. They're buried in Settings, hidden behind gestures, or tucked inside apps you've never opened.
"Apple builds the most powerful consumer device on earth. Then they ship it with a 2-minute setup wizard and hope you figure the rest out yourself. You won't. Nobody does."
Here are the 11 things he showed every customer:
@Hyatt I have stayed at Hyatt for years and my next trip is in Budapest and I’ve never seen any higher operate in this way it is a disgrace and I’ve asked them to contact me ASAP and they have refused to even speak with me!
@Hyatt we have gone through five people speaking with them and all of them say refer to the email that they are breaking our contract 72 hours in advance and letting us stay there but not allowing us to use any of the facilities whatsoever.
@Hyatt we have a reservation for two rooms at the Grand Hyatt in Athens in 72 hours and the hotel just sent an email telling us we cannot use the rooftop pool, bar, restaurants, or any facilities: booked a year ago for our anniversaries and the Hyatt gives us 72 hours notice!
Touchdown Confirmed! Hats off to @Int_Machines on a historic lunar landing—the first in 52 years. A new era in Moon exploration begins. We're filled with pride as our SpectraCAMs served as Odysseus' eyes, and we're honored to have been a partner in achieving this monumental goal.
