Nation Stunned by Support Document Explaning Ways in Which an Apple Card May Not Look New Forever leancrew.com

Apple:

If your titanium Apple Card comes into contact with hard surfaces or materials, it’s possible that the coating can be damaged.

Some fabrics, like leather and denim, might cause permanent discoloration that will not wash off.

Dr. Drang:

My complaint is not that the Apple Card may lose its luster in a wallet. I’m not sure anything will maintain its looks when put between sheets of leather and compressed by my butt. My complaint is that Apple wrote a support document that looks absurd and invites snarky comments. Everything Apple does generates derision from Apple haters; this generated derision from Apple’s best customers.

There are many reasons to criticize Apple’s credit card, including its very concept. But its propensity for becoming stained is a remarkably silly complaint. Everything that has been in my wallet for more than a few months looks a little worn, and I wouldn’t expect anything sandwiched in leather and sat on for eight hours a day to behave differently.

If you’ve exhausted a list of possible things to do in the world to the point where you’re spending time cleaning your credit cards, this support article is for you.
