Comments are where readers share what worked on their device, ask follow-up questions and point out mistakes. Good questions often become new guides or FAQ answers. These rules keep comments useful and safe.
Please do
- Mention your device and software version when something works differently for you.
- Stay on topic and be kind, including when you disagree.
- Report errors. We’d rather know.
Not allowed
- Spam, self-promotion and links added only for SEO.
- “Account recovery experts”, hackers for hire, fake support numbers or anything promising to get into an account. These are scams and are removed on sight.
- Links to pirated software, cracked apps, or tools to spy on or break into other people’s devices or accounts.
- Personal data: yours or anyone else’s phone numbers, addresses, account names or screenshots showing them.
- Harassment, hate, threats or illegal content.
Never post passwords, verification codes, recovery codes or card details in a comment, and never send them to anyone who replies offering help. We will never ask for them.
How moderation works
- Your first comment is held for approval. After that, your comments usually appear straight away.
- Comments are moderated by one person, so approval can take 1–2 days.
- We may remove comments that break these rules, or edit out personal data, without notice. Links in comments are marked
nofollow. - Replies from the article’s author show an “Author” badge. Anyone else claiming to be us is not.
- We can’t offer one-on-one tech support in the comments, but we read every question.
