When Activating an iPhone Goes Wrong – The TouchArcade Show #467

In this week’s episode we talk about the brand spanking new iPhone 12 I just received in the mail! And… can’t use because it gets stuck in activation. Apple: It just works! Until it doesn’t! Then you’re screwed! We also talk about the latest Apple drama surrounding them finding a way to pull the Stadium app, which allowed iOS users to access and play Google Stadia on their devices, from the App Store. We also hit on some of the other big news stories of the week including a few major game updates and GameClub’s first foray into porting a PC game to mobile.
