Discussion Looking for moderators for iPhoneXS

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I have taken over this subreddit a year ago due to a mod inactivity. I am still running it all by myself however a little help doesn't kill anyone. If you are interested, I am looking for 1 or 2 other mods to run the shop. Please send me a private message with your experience as a mod on Reddit, what are your plans for this subreddit and any ideas you can bring into this subreddit.

Let's admit that this subreddit will eventually phase out when the device will stop being supported by Apple.

Thank you dear community!

Hey everyone so am planning to buy a new phone for me, unfortunately I don't have the financial ability to buy a better phone, and to be honest i cant afford 163 in 1 payment

I found this iphone xs gold color with a 64 gb that cost 163 USD $ And am planning to buy the phone in four monthly installments

Is it still good in 2025?

Like i only use social media apps And only play minecraft, nothing else

Should i buy the phone or not?

Question Before & After Battery Replacement

18 Upvotes

I am 6 years in now with my iPhone XS and the battery health sits at 75%. I have been waiting for apple to drop an iPhone that‘s worth upgrading but year after year i don‘t feel it and stick to my beloved XS. I wanted to replace the battery for many years now but i‘m hesitant because many people state that it‘s not worth it. It‘s 99€ at Apple in Germany. Did you notice any difference in screen time and performance? Excited to hear some experiences. Thanks.

My iPhone 7 kicked the bucket, so I went for the last iPhone I really like from the modern era. Love the shiny metal look with the non frosted glass on the Xs. For a similar price my only other option was the 11, but the low resolution LCD drove away in favour of the nice oled on the Xs. Runs very good on 18.1. I think I’ll use my new to me Xs until it dies.

When I pick up the phone while its screen is off and when a new notification arrives, the screen wakes up and a white screen appears for about 0.1 milliseconds, just like a flash. What causes this problem and what is the solution?

I updated my Xs to IOs 18.2, however, I didn't see anything different. I haven't looked properly or there really isn't anything new. I thought Siri would gain integration with ChatGPT, but there's nothing like that, at least I didn't find it.

Question How can I reset my iPhone without losing any data?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone

After updating my iPhone to iOS 18, I started having this weird issue where certain parts of the touchscreen aren’t working. It’s super frustrating, so I’ve decided to reset my phone to see if that fixes it.

Here’s the problem: I don’t want to lose any of my data. Photos, apps, settings—everything is important to me, and I want it back exactly the way it was after the reset.

I’ve heard about using iCloud, iTunes, or maybe something else, but honestly, I don’t know much about how this works. What’s the best and safest way to back everything up and restore it after resetting? I’d really appreciate any advice or steps to make this as smooth as possible.

Thanks in advance!

Question good thing to buy XS NOW ?

Hey, im looking for some iphone for my mum, shes basic phone user, calls, texts, facebook, web browsing. nothing else. im looking for some budget iphone, and i was looking on XS or SE 2020, or something like that. is XS good to buy right now? I can buy one with 100% battery health. please, just answer my question, if its ok phone even now. im pissed off comments like "no get the 13 atleast", im not paying 550$ for a phone which is absolute overkill for this stuff. my grandma bought iphone 7 3 years ago and she is so happy with it. so i dont actually get these comments like "13 is minimum", so is XS alright?

My iphone camera shakes uncontrollably which causes my photos to be blurry. I recently updated my phone to IOS 17 but it failed to resolve the issue. Does anyone have any advice or ran into the same problem?
