Last Updated On July 23, 2020 by GeeksModo Staff

In this article, I’m going to tell you exactly how you can contact an iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS or macOS developer. If an app is not working as expected on your iPhone or iPad, one of
the fixes you should try is to contact its developer for support.

Most Apple apps are created and designed by third-party developers. A huge number of users download and purchase apps and games from the Apple App Store. If you
need support, it’s a good idea to contact the developer directly.

    I’ve tried all the ways suggested to get cellular data working again after updating 15.2 on my iPhone 7, except erasing and restoring. I’m not sure my data has been backed up to do that. The WiFi isn’t working either. Help!!!
