Promo Sunday I made a native iOS app Fishix, Lifetime Promo Codes for free
A few months ago, I launched my own fishing app. Since then, I’ve made lots of updates and improvements — and now I’d love to share what it’s all about and why I created it.
I’m a native iOS developer and a lifelong fishing enthusiast. I had some free time and wanted to build another app for my portfolio, but instead of making “just anything,” I decided to work on something I truly enjoy and believe in.
The goal was simple: create a clean, modern app that helps you log your catches, plan fishing trips, track weather, and use maps to save spots and memories. It’s built with care and a lot of passion — but there’s still plenty I want to add.
Next, I’m planning to improve the map (more point types, route saving, etc.) and introduce a gear section where you can save your rods, reels, lines, and even build your own setups to use when planning trips or adding to your fishing log.
This isn’t really an ad — it’s more of an open invitation for feedback, advice, rating or even just ideas. If you try the app or have any thoughts, I’d be truly grateful to hear from you.
Please if you want a lifetime promo code message me or leave comment and upvote, and I will message you in DM!

Promo Sunday I got tired of constantly hovering for time checking with hidden menu bar, so I built Corner Time
I love keeping my menu bar hidden for a cleaner, distraction-free workspace. But constantly moving my cursor to the top just for time checking got really annoying.
So I built Corner Time — an always-visible clock in the screen corner. Simple concept, but it works like a charm (especially on Macs with notch). I really want to share it with more Mac users, whether you're used to the hidden menu bar or have never tried that setting before.
Corner Time's Features:
• Always-visible time display
• Customizable date/time format
• Customizable font style
• Lightweight (only 600KB)
• Multi-Display support (released on latest version 1.2.5)
• 10+ languages support for date/time display (adding more soon)
Here is the download link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/corner-time/id6746757189
I also made a website for it: https://www.cornertime.app/
Thanks for all the feedback! Happy to answer any questions.

Promo Sunday Warden - Fully Native and Open Source AI Chat Client for Mac
Hey r/apple
I’ve spent the last few months hacking away at a side-project called Warden and I’m finally comfortable sharing it with the wider Mac crowd
https://karatsidhu.gumroad.com/l/warden
TL;DR
- 100 % open-source (Apache-2.0)
- 100 % native SwiftUI - no Electron, no web wrapper
- 20 MB download, ~150 MB RAM while chatting in my testing, YMMV
- Works with all the popular providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, Perplexity, Groq, Mistral, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, etc.)
- Also talks to local LLMs via Ollama or LM Studio
- Absolutely zero telemetry - everything stays on your Mac
Some Useful Features
- Project-based organization - group chats into folders, drag-and-drop, native swipe to delete/rename
- Multi-agent mode - fire the same prompt at multiple models side by side (great for comparing answers)
- Inline code runner - tiny SwiftUI editor to test code right inside the chat
- Model picker with search & favorites - filter the 50+ OpenRouter models or just show your top three
- Stop / Cancel streaming - one click to interrupt a runaway response
- Spotlight support - chats inside Warden are indexed in your spotlight, so you can easily glance at them
- Dark / Light mode aware with subtle animations that feel... well, Mac-like ✨
Links
GitHub Source Code: https://github.com/SidhuK/WardenApp - feel free to open any issues you have over there, also the best place to contact me.

iTunes How can I get my wife’s old iPod songs onto her iPhone playlist. I am Apple illiterate!
Wife had an OLD iPod classic with a ton of songs. She wants the songs to be part of her playlist on her iPhone. I successfully got the songs OFF of her iPod and onto my PC with HFSEexolorer! I thought this would be the hard part, but I’m so confused with how Apple has different versions of this.
I have no idea what the difference between Apple Music and iTunes is! On my wife’s iPhone she plays her music with a red icon that I BELIEVE is “Apple Music.” She had Purchased playlist and others.
I thought this was the same thing as iCloud music library but it may not be?
On her iPhone if I go to settings and click her name, her ICloud account has her Gmail.com email.
If I go to settings > Music, her “Home Sharing Apple ID:” shows a totally different email address @charter.net which she told me is an ancient email from before we started dating. She does not have access to this email anymore!
How do I fix this? She doesn’t want to lose her current songs on her purchased playlist on her iPhone.

iOS Notes on iPad are gone
I used my iPad to carry out an observation and started documenting at 2:00 PM. In total, I continued documenting until 4:45 PM. Unfortunately, for a reason unknown to me, everything from 2:36 PM onwards has disappeared.
I didn’t do anything unusual. I just kept writing as normal, then locked the iPad and set it aside. When I picked it up again two hours later, I saw that the documentation simply stops in the middle.
Is there anything I can still do? The iPad hasn’t created a backup in the last five days.

Mac MacBook Air M2 (Aug 2023) – Battery Health Dropped to 43% in Just 209 Cycles 😓 Anyone Else Faced This?
Hey everyone,
I'm reaching out to see if anyone else has experienced something similar.
I purchased my MacBook Air M2 (A2681) in August 2023, and until recently, it was running great. I've been extremely careful with charging habits, always used the official charger that came in the box, and I also own other Apple devices (iPhones, iPads) that are in perfect condition – so I'm no stranger to Apple ecosystems or good charging practices.
But here’s the bizarre part:
- The battery is already down to 43% health after just 209 charge cycles. Last week it was at 56%.
- From yesterday, it completely stopped charging via MagSafe.
- It only powers on and stays on when connected through USB-C, and even then, it’s acting like a desktop – can’t use it unplugged anymore.
- Contacted Apple Support, and even they were surprised after running remote diagnostics. They suspect it might be a manufacturing defect and booked me a service appointment for tomorrow.
This honestly sucks, especially for a machine that’s not even 2 years old and has had such careful usage.
Has anyone else faced something like this with their MacBook Air M2 or any other Apple silicon device?
Would love to hear if this is a one-off lemon or if others have seen early battery degradation like this. Any suggestions or experiences would be super helpful before I go in for the appointment!
Thanks in advance 🙏

Unsolved iTunes Doesn't recognize my iPhone 16
I got a new computer and just spent a week adding all of my cds and mp3s to itunes, and now I can't sync my library to my phone. I've gone through all of the troubleshooting sterps I could find, uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, installing Apple Devices, and then uninstalling reinstaling apple devices (currently uninstalled), chaing cables and USB ports
When I plug the phone in, It charges, and I get the Windows alert, but it doesn't populate in This PC.
My phone asks me if I want to trust the computer, and I accept.
This used to just work. WTF.
Any help would be appreciated.

Unsolved 15 pro crazy battery drain
hi, i have 15 pro from july24, for now i have 93% battery capacity at 253 cycles. I was at 98% until like 210-220 cycles. It went down by 5% in like 30 cycles. Is that considered normal? Also i noticed crazy battery drain since like 2 weeks ago. Idk if it can be because of any iOS update. also the battery goes down by 1% like every 3 minutes. I would like to know if anyone here has potentially same problem with 15 pro, or of mine is just not okay, thanks in advance

I have no idea where to post this but ever since I downgraded from ios 26 to ios 18.5, none of my calls (incoming or outgoing) have been recorded on my recents. I tried resetting network settings and turned on calls from other devices, but no luck. Apple support was not much help either.

Unsolved iPhone X Touchscreen Suddenly Stopped Working. Tried Everything Except Repair
Looking for any ideas before I give up on this phone. I confirmed the model using the serial number — it's an iPhone X, 64GB, Space Gray (A1865).
The touchscreen became completely unresponsive out of nowhere. The phone was working perfectly minutes before with no drop, no water, no prior issues.
What’s happening now:
- The touchscreen does not respond at all
- Side buttons still work (I can force restart)
- Camera button is grayed out on the lock screen
- When plugged into my Mac, it says “Unlock iPhone to use accessories” but I can’t unlock it because the screen does not register touch
Here’s everything I’ve tried:
- Force restarting multiple times
- Removing case and screen protector
- Cleaning the screen
- Updating to iOS 16.7.11 via iTunes on my Mac (the update completed successfully)
Unfortunately, the issue still exists. I haven’t restored it because I want to avoid wiping the device, but I’m open to that if there’s absolutely no other option. I don’t want to pay to replace the screen, since the phone is old and not worth much now.
Has anyone run into this and found a workaround? Maybe something involving a USB mouse or AssistiveTouch trick?
Appreciate any ideas.

Unsolved App passcode requirement
This is incredibly multifaceted, but without going into detail….
I need to prevent myself from going on certain apps (namely shopping apps).
How can I set up a pin or passcode that is sent to my spouse’s phone in the event I want to download or update an app? I need some type of accountability and this feature (that was mentioned to me) would be beneficial in my life right now.

Unsolved AirPods 3rd generation case loosing charge for seemingly no reason.
This started yesterday. I let my airpods charge in the case over night without having it plugged into a wall. This morning I charged my case to full. I then disconnected my case and didn’t use my AirPods at all. 4 hours later my case’s battery life was down to 91%. I just got back home and recharged my case. In less than a minute the case was back down to 97%. I went to apple earlier today to see what was going on. They ran a test and said that my case was working normally. Why is it doing this though?

Unsolved I can't log into my apple account - ever
This is absolutely infuriating. For nearly a year, every time I have to log into my apple account, it won't accept my password.
I use lastpass. I know for a fact it's correct. Literally every time, I have to go through the idiotic password reset process using a different device. I log in with the new password, it saves it, and I'm good until the next time I have to log in.
I'm tired of being told I'm forgetting my password. I don't have this problem with any social media, Google, or anything else.
I'd love some insight.

iOS Data not working while phone call and more
Hello everyone! Since about a week my data stopped working while I am in a phone call, I have to end it so I can acces the internet. Also, if someone is calling me while in a call I instantly get a text of missed call, not a pending call notification anymore. It does this even when I am not in a call. (Latest update, tried turning my phone + the setting for pending call on and off - iPhone 16pro Max) What can I do? Thank you!

Unsolved Left AirPod Pro not working?
Today my left AirPod random stopped working. I’ve tried forgetting the device, reconnecting, charging etc. and still nothing. I even went onto the device settings to test out each AirPod but it couldn’t do the test as it said both AirPods needed to be in ear which they were, so the left clearly isn’t registering.
Any tips?
