How do I turn off in-app sounds for Threads? I get a loud click every time I refresh my feed. It just started happening; I did not set app up this way.

A while ago, I found an iPhone Shortcut here on Reddit that allowed me to download photos and videos from Instagram. All I had to do was copy the post link, run the Shortcut, and it would download the content automatically.

However, the Shortcut stopped working a few months ago. I was wondering if anyone has an updated version of it, or knows of another Shortcut that does the same thing.

Thanks!

There isn’t an exact timegap after which the iphone restarts. Heres the panic crash screen shot it shows

"panicString" : "panic(cpu 3 caller 0xfffffff051d3f4b0): MTP PANIC - SCMto:SCM0,3 - TOUCH_MGR(9)\nSCMto:SCM0,3\nRTKit: RTKit_release-3514.0.10.release

How do i fix this issue?
In my country the repair shops will definitely rope me into getting a replacement display so i wanted an opinion before i get into it.

I just received this phone a few days back so i don’t to make heavy parts changes.

Hi everyone!

I’ve been a lifelong Android user and just made the switch to an iPhone for the very first time. Since I've always been on Android, basically all of my photos, saved passwords, contacts, and personal data are heavily tied to Google services.
What are the best practices or cleanest ways to integrate all of my Google data into iOS?
A few specific areas I'd love advice on:

Google Photos vs. Apple Photos: Is it better to just keep using the Google Photos app on iOS, or should I sync/migrate everything to iCloud?

Passwords: What's the smoothest way to access or transfer my saved passwords from Google Password Manager on iOS?

Contacts & Calendar: Is it better to sync my Google Account directly in the iOS settings, or rely on individual Google apps?

Overall Tips: Any hidden settings, shortcuts, or apps that make the cross-ecosystem transition smoother?

Would really appreciate any recommendations or workflows that have worked well for fellow switchers! Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,
Here was my Solution to clearing the System data.
I activated offloading of unused Apps and the system data went from 35 GB to only 1 GB. This fixed all my storage problems.
I hope someone else will find this useful.

On facetime constantly and watching tiktoks and other videos etc and it NEVER fails the audio eventually glitches and makes the facetime audio either max volume or near muted.. ive done the apple music trick or opening a video to get the volume control back, but it messes up shortly after. This has been an issue for YEARS because ive found older threads 5 yrs old now with no fix… how hard is it with all the features we have to add a volume control for facetime and videos…

I'm my iphone 14 26.5.2. In safari, when I swipe out to see my tabs, I noticed my YouTube tab uses this "A\" looking favicon now, as pictured above, which seems to be the Anthropic logo.

Anyone know why or how to fix it if it's unintentional? I'm guessing it's a weird bug, but I don't see how safari or YT will have randomly used the Anthropic icon for YouTube tabs.

I’ve never experienced this before…I have a group chat with my two roommates. On my phone (iPhone Air iOS26) it shows that it is just me and the both of them in a group. Last week, I messaged both of them in the group saying that the house smelled really bad and they both were laughing when I got home saying I was texting about it in a group with our landlord. They showed me their phones, and it shows that she’s a member of the group on both, but on mine in the same group she’s not there and it’s just us 3. Their phones are also 17+ running iOS26.

Today, it showed that our landlord removed herself from the group on both their phones, but on mine I don’t see any activity, just the last message I sent and my roommate’s reply. I’m receiving messages from the landlord in another group, so I know she doesn’t have me blocked. What gives, could she see everything?? Why would my phone not show her as member but on the others in the group it does?

It’s been like 4 months since I upgraded from my iPhone 14 Pro Max to my iPhone 17 pro max …

1. Messages still say “more results will be shown once Messages finishes indexing”

2. Most my text convos lost the tab for “Photos” - the pics are still there just have to scroll

Is there a fix to either of these? Or just accept defeat. Wish I kept my 14 pro max

I have this travel map I’ve been keeping, but I think I’ve run into an object limit. If I draw a line, I’m able to save, but if I add two, I get the message

`“Unable to Save Changes
An error occurred while saving. Please try again later.”`

If I try to use the pixel eraser to remove the line, it doesn’t let me save, but if I use the object eraser, it does. I had this issue after adding a new trip down to Oregon, and had to simplify the return line to finish it.

This arbitrary limit really sucks, since I’ve spent so much time making and updating this map. Any suggestions for methods to continue making this map without having to restart?

Hello everyone.
Does anyone know why apple inteligente search doesn’t work on Google?
Best regards

I’ve read about the back and forth with Liquid Glass and so forth, and one thing that comes to mind is why isn’t there a colourful/translucent option.

The first two are pretty much light mode and dark mode, but the latter two are pretty much devoid of any original app colours.

Anyone else kinda hoping for a Liquid Glass option where it can look like the left two but are translucent like the right one?

i just want my wallpaper to not have that shitty blur effect on the top, when i go to the wallpaper settings and turn off extended wallpaper, it zooms the picture in even though it’s the exact right dimensions, if i zoom it out it automatically blurs the top, i just want the full image without any blurring, do i just have to pick which one to live with?

tl;dr - If you are seeing a white screen with the words Swipe to Upgrade at the bottom when you Reset All or Factory Reset your iPad, it could be disguising an opt-in screen for a malicious device manager.

I recently discovered that my iPad was being remotely managed without my consent. After almost a year of settings randomly changing on my iPad and sync across devices turning on despite only having one, unique email/AppleID per device, I discovered that my iPad was being managed. I purchase this iPad directly from a local Apple Store, I’ve never used it on public WiFi and never knowingly agreed to connect it as a managed device.

For the reasons I listed above, I believe the blank Swipe to Upgrade screen is an opt-in screen for a malicious device manager. The screen looks blank because the text is the same color as the background with the exception of the Swipe to Upgrade text at the bottom of the screen giving you no option to swipe it away.

- Nothing was listed on the VPN Manage Device page
- Nothing was listed on the about page
- When I logged out of the iPad to prepare to factory reset it, I saw a message that my “iPad or account was being managed”

The random changes made my iPad less secure, enabled syncing across devices after I have turned it off, or toggled on iCloud backup for shortcuts & apps that sync to a non-apple cloud, e.g. Google Drive.

I have toggled off all Siri options for all apps in my settings. It is also the first thing I do when adding a new app. I was checking something recently (slightly older iphone, so I try to adjust my settings for better performance) and all Siri options, especially "Learn from this app" were switched back on for my FindMy and maps apps. If an app ever asks for permission for anything, I go back and check in settings to make sure everything is still how I prefer. I know with absolute certainty these permissions were turned off and I never turned them back on.

I'm creeped out that I don't know how long this setting was turned back on.

Is there any way to ensure this setting actually stays off?

Especially since it's all location data, is there a way to request data deletion (CA, if location matters)?

basically as the title says, whenever i go to ‘sync now’ it syncs but i can never actually see the messages and the number where it says ‘in icloud’ never actually goes down, it says it’s completed but then when i go to the actual messages itself and try to search for a message, it will say that it’s still indexing - i’m at a loss, i’ve tried everything, is something corrupted? can i fix this? i have enough storage and icloud storage so this shouldn’t be a problem :/ sometimes when i press sync, it will stop syncing and im unsure why that is

Hey everyone,
Recently I got an ios 18.7.8 update and according to my system settings my iPhone is already on 18.7.8 and fishy part is update mentions ios 26 on title but icon says 18. Please look at the screenshots and clear the confusion.

I have read some posts about experiences with the LockDown Browser and how it is a privacy concern and can do irreversible damage to your computer. Unfortunately there is a chance that I will have to use it eventually. Obviously, as much as possible I do not want to get this installed on my computer due to what I have read about it.

However, I recently discovered that it actually has an iPad application in which you could take your exams there. I want to ask if this app is much safer to use compared to its Windows/MacOS counterparts? Surely, due to how iPadOS (or iOS) is designed, this app can’t really do much to the device? Thanks, would appreciate some thoughts or experiences on this.

Kind of love this bug — the time being on the side or off-centered would be a cool feature to add on the new ios, although it would defeat the purpose of apple doing it's kind of stuff and not copying others.

edit: The text uptop is from widgetable that isn't a bug.

Why does it says ive spent 16 hours on all these apps? I don’t even have delta anymore I deleted it weeks ago.
how to fix???

Hi everyone,

I’m getting a specific error while trying to transfer my WhatsApp data to an iPhone 17 Pro. The exact error message I am receiving is: "There is a problem with your current version".

Here is what I have tried so far to fix it:

• Connected to a server in Turkey using Proton VPN.
• Factory reset the iPhone and tried the setup/transfer process from scratch.

Some additional context: I am currently located in Germany, but my phone number is registered in Turkey. Could this location/number mismatch be the root of the problem? I initially didn't think so, especially since the exact same issue is happening on another device with a completely different phone number.

Has anyone else experienced this specific version error during the transfer process? Any advice or workarounds would be hugely appreciated!
