How to find your local Apple Store and visiting hours
Want to visit your local store but do not know the timing? Just head over to Apple’s Find a Store page.
Here, enter your ZIP code or location. You may also use the store name if you know it. On the results page, you will see ‘Opens at 10:00 am’ (or the respective store time). To see the Apple Store address, phone number, directions, full week’s store hours, and more, click one of the store names.
Tip: Do not know which product to buy or need one-on-one in-store assistance? You can request to ‘Shop with a Specialist.’
How to send feedback to Apple
Despite turning off comments on all its YouTube videos, Apple is open to feedback.
If you use the beta version of iOS, iPadOS, or macOS, a Feedback app comes along with it. You can use it to inform them about bugs, etc.
For regular users, just head over to Apple’s Feedback page and have your say. Most likely, you won’t get a reply from Apple, but they do claim to read all feedbacks.
This is how you can contact Apple Support to get your problems solved. I hope this article helped you.
