Apple revamps retail stores with new Genius Bars and upgraded service areas

Apple is redesigning its retail stores with three main changes: refurbished 'Avenue' sections for accessories and services, new dedicated areas for online pickups and Today at Apple sessions, and a return to the classic Genius Bar design with an all-wood look. The company is also enforcing stricter employee engagement rules during morning meetings and store openings. These updates reflect Apple's shift toward enhancing existing stores rather than opening new locations, aiming to improve customer experience and service efficiency.
