Honestly, just navigating the phone is a giant pain in the ass. I bought my wife an iPad and finding basic settings or locating an app is a nightmare. Any time she needs help with it I feel like I'm pulling teeth.
This is part of it for me. Apple decides how a device should be used and you have to learn a new "intuitive" interface that is unlike every other computer device.
They have streamlined everything to the point that you can't deviate from their use flow and it drives me insane trying to do a task in an alternative way from how they envision it being done.
Android is like using a computer, IOS is like using a computer of you have never used one.
The back button being top left still baffles me to this day. Let's put it in the most hard to reach spot.
I don’t really get this. As an android user since 2009 and the evolution of android os I am now for the last year an iOS user, and the interface is the same as it was for me and my last phone. Swipe up to get to the Home Screen, long hold to see tabs running and swipe from the left to center to go back. Is this because my last phone was an LG?
The first thing I do on any new android is disable gesture navigation.
Ah ok. I honestly hate how much I love my iPhone. Its my wife’s late mothers phone and I took it kind of as a gag so I could FaceTime my family and then I figured I would go back to my LG. But damn i get day and a half to 2 days of battery life and the pictures are way better. The iOS lets me hide all my apps which is something I always hated about iPhones and there are widgets. If I could only disable the photos and maps app this phone would be mint.
