An outage at Apple prevented users from paying their bills and accessing other features on Sunday, April 26. However, the tech giant said the issue had been solved by the end of the day Sunday.



The outage started at around 8:45 a.m. Users couldn’t lock or unlock their physical cards and couldn’t request new numbers or cards, a release stated.

Apple’s System Status said that “some users” were affected, though it was unclear how many.

Users reported attempting to schedule AppleCard payments, but then being met only with indefinite “processing” messages, with no apparent resolution.

It was also recently discovered that some users of Apple could have been left exposed to a zero-click email hack.

The attack consisted of an email to a victim’s inbox, which, when clicked, would have triggered the vulnerability in iPhones, iPads and some other software.
