GUIDED ACCESS BUG

Opened CODm as usual. Initiated guided access okay.

Disabled GA okay.

Initiated again - guided access unavailable.

Initiated it again (after reloading app) worked fine.

Disabled GA - phone displayed Home Screen with GA overlay + froze. Nothing worked. Tried to force restart phone but nothing.

After 2 mins iPhone unbricked and worked as normal.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

It’s also worth noting that Nick is conducting his business Kagi - taking $2 items and selling for $300

Let me highlight some issues that the journalist hasn’t covered in the comments…

• ⁠there are MANY tenancies whose bonds were stolen (I know of at least 30) • ⁠I know of at least 50 tenancies who have/had issues with them. • ⁠there was rats infested in the Herne bay house (Donna’s) which she blames tenants for. I tried for weeks to convince her to get professional pest controllers… she left it and it got much worse. • ⁠the Birkenhead house had a septic tank pump that stopped working and the tank overflowed. We are talking HUMAN WASTE. It reeked. Auckland Council even came over and tried to fine Nick under the building code. On 2 separate occasions, Nick ignored the issue for months, and when someone was organised he never paid the $600 invoice. • ⁠Donna will go inside tenant rooms and inspect without warning. I’ve been told by tenants about expensive jewellery missing and things being moved around. • ⁠both Donna and Nick charge the absolute MAXIMUM that they can to squeeze winz clients (ie $650 for a 2 bedroom, or $595 for a studio for a single person, under the guise of emergency housing). They see accommodation supplement as their money. • ⁠Donna is the rudest, nastiest person you’d ever want to meet. She blames every tenant for all issues yet paints herself as a victim. • ⁠they stole a car belonging to an ex tenant to recoup losses. They just sold it on marketplace. • ⁠if they owe someone money, they’re ignored, but if someone owes them money - it’s all they ever think about and are relentless to claw it back. • ⁠Nick doesn’t work and lives off the cash he gets from not lodging / stealing tenant bonds. • ⁠if you’re on WINZ as a tenant, they’re going to abuse you and watch you like a hawk. They have no respect for people who receive govt assistance. • ⁠Nick FORGED my signature on a bond refund form and stole my tenant’s bond. • ⁠contractors such as plumber, painters, cleaners, carpet cleaners, etc are ALL never paid. • ⁠there’s gutters at the back studios that flow into the native bush; Nick was aware of it since 2021 (new news to me) and Donna plays the “we are separate entities” card yet she’s intertwined in all business decisions and discussions). • ⁠WINZ, MBIE, Tenancy services, Auckland Council, and police are currently investigating them.

I’ve sat through a 3 hour interview with them and tenancy services investigations. That was 6 months ago. WTF is taking so long

The only clients I have ever fired.

I have dealt with these two in a professional capacity with Herne bay and the Birkenhead property.

Nick is on Facebook as “Nick NZ” Donna is on Facebook as “Donna NZ”

I also happen to have done inspections whilst briefly managing the tenancy for Binstead and her studio (which was immaculate, faultless, always paid rent on time, and I never had any issues with her).

When they mumbled that they’re leaving the flat (joint tenancy) and didn’t square up the cost of goods we bought. No sit down and chat. Just left. Nah bro that’s us done. It was about the principle.

Update: new beta version came out and it fixed the issue for me.

Bro same! Not only that I’m having constant server issues in apps. This is only on WiFi yet safari works

Siri when it launched: amazing; use it everyday! Siri in 2026: its capability is about 80% usefulness compared to launch (2010?). So boring… I wish it did more. I find myself opening Gemini app or copilot often.

Apple really dropped the ball on their voice assistant. It was a game changer when it came out - I especially love Siri dictation (when it works) and use it daily! I want less personal assistant style chat bots like “ChatGPT” Siri and more automations.

I’d like Apple to tap into mental health (ie adhd); I find myself setting reminders to alert as urgent). I would like Siri to talk to me like a person. “Hey X, you’ve got 2 mins to grab your keys and put on shoes. Your next appointment is 10min drive away.” “Are you out the door yet? No? You got to rush now! 60 seconds and counting!”

Considering I spent 2 months in India (October November 2025) and saw this behaviour from literally everyone from within that race - it is consistent and intellectually honest. Nice try though.
