Justin Bieber has expressed his frustration with Apple.
On Thursday, he took to Instagram to share his displeasure over features of the iPhone that are interfering with his daily routine.
“If I hit the dictation button after sending a text, it beeps, and the music stops again. I swear, I’m going to find everyone at Apple and put them in a rear-naked chokehold,” he posted. “Even if I turn off dictation, it still somehow accesses my voice memos. The send button shouldn’t have multiple functions in the same spot.”
His comments prompted quick reactions from fans. One follower noted, “The caption is relatable, but honestly, Apple complicates the simple.” Another joked, “I just know they’re going to screenshot this and hang it in their office.”
Bieber has been quite open on social media about his mental and emotional struggles over the past year.
In a previous post from August, he expressed gratitude for Jesus, detailing feelings of unworthiness concerning “forgiveness and love.” He shared, “Happy new day—Honor Jesus. He greets me every morning with forgiveness and love that I truly don’t deserve.”
He added, “Without his love, I wouldn’t be able to get through the day. It fills me up when I’m at my lowest.”
In April, he reflected, “I’m just an ordinary, flawed man. I’ve done things that hurt others, and I still do. Yet, waking up brings me another chance to grow, and today I chose to be less selfish.”
Bieber emphasized that love draws us in and does not condemn, stating, “It believes in the best, hopes all, endures all, and helps us forgive—even our enemies.”
He later confided about the fear of being perceived as selfish, admitting, “Sometimes I feel that if I tell people how selfish I am, I’ll be exposed. If I admit it, maybe people won’t like me or trust me.” He recognized that being honest about these feelings would ultimately free him.
