No you cannot :)
Question marked as
As I have said before, if you are that naive to believe everything you read on the internet, then it is not a safe place for you to be browsing.
You need to realize that these fake claims made on TikTok and other Social Media sites are only there to drive Likes and to have people directed to their page. Search Engine responses that use AI to scour the internet for these claims have no idea if they are true or not. We have seen the faked photoshopped post here to and it is laughable.
The correct answer is NO, you will not be banned. If you fell for it, then just let that be a lesson for you so you do not fall for those phishing emails and find yourself giving up all of your personal information because you believe everything that you see on the internet.

I'm not sure what happened to your friend, but they weren't "banned from the calculator app". That's just not a real thing.
There apparently was a similar question yesterday that has since been removed. I can't tell who posted it.
It also appears to be something showing up in TikTok ( I found that in a web search, not by actually using TikTok). I found one from about 16 hours ago.
Someone on Twitter/X made a post about two months ago saying that Apple should ban people who divide by zero. I assume it was intended to be funny?

So, stupid social media fads strike again.
Sorry, but that is fake. Either you attempted to make it yourself or you fell for someone that did. It is a terrible fake at that. Hopefully you are not that naive and if you are, the internet is probably not a safe space for you to be browsing.

Which would be expected.
Please have an authorized service provider verify the operation of your troll-detection sensor. 😉
That, or maybe the calculator app that OP is using was sold by Archie McPhee? 🤭
Nope!

No, it did not! If that is what your friend told you, then they were not being truthful with you.

What do you mean by "banned"?
What you will get is an error message:
You cannot delete the App Store. It can be restricted in Screen Time so it will not show up on your screen. This is common for parents to not allow children or family members to download apps from the store. You can turn off Screen Time restrictions if you are allowed to and know the passcode if one had been set.
Apologies to you, Leniboi643. I think that is the same response I got in Sonoma.
In Sequoia, it's different. And you get a different output depending on what you enter. Any number followed by dividing by zero results in this:
If you try to divide 0 by 0, you get this:
I answered this yesterday. Why did you ask again? Or wasn’t it you who asked?
Is there some sort of practical joke going around?
Yes it just happened to my friend
Please review and adjust your skepticism setting to its proper 2024 value. 😉
