Some interesting posts here! Is a new CEO really that great if large swathes of the staff leave? I see another Trump-type person who is actually not a decent person. His companies only have a value because tech is bigged-up out of all proportion. …

It’s fine if these companies don’t want to operate via the App Store. Many companies don’t. It is entirely reasonable for Apple to charge what it does for providing the infrastructure. Selling via the App Store still gives 70%. If that’s not enou…

Oh, no. No more advertising. Any pop ups and I’m out.

I hope Apple has improved battery drain from the previous version!

A full sized HomePod is very good news! The sound quality of the Mini is just nowhere near the original full-size, so I’m up for it.

It is a shame when apps are not updated and won’t work on newer OSs. I do, though, see the reasoning. More frustrating is when an app changes developer and has to be paid for again (which I won’t do). On one other point, I don’t think Apple can be …

The fees are clearly not illegal. If the companies sign up for the Apple Pay service, they do so knowingly. If there is another free service, well, fine. Apple is again generating business for the banks and pays for the infrastructure. Yet another…

I am sure Visa can afford the minimal charges. I’m in the UK paying 29.9% on my Visa card with a base rate of a 1.25%. I have never managed to get the rate reduced, there is always another six months to wait. I have been nowhere near my credit li…

Oh, no! Has the world ended and I’ve missed it?

The home buying and selling analogy as a general thing is hard to use as ultimately any deal depends on its contract. If you find black mould (I’m in the UK) after you’ve bought, it could be your survey didn’t pick up the damp or you didn’t see it. …

This is just more nonsense from the UK government in the guise of protecting the public. It’s not that at all. It’s also very simple: if developers don’t want to pay then they can market their product by other means. If the public thinks something i…

At a simpler level, why should Apple open up access to its, no doubt, extremely expensive and secure systems? These are systems for which the buying public expects to have at no direct cost (you buy a device and pay for an app, with all that infrast…

I can with BP and my daughter does with Shell already here in the UK.

There are some comments earlier on which I wish to comment. 1. Why should Apple be broken up because users of phones don’t protect them with passwords or parental protections? How will that help? 2. Devices ‘forget’ passwords so using phone generate…

There are comments above which suggest Apple Pay is a monopoly. It plainly isn’t. It just links Apple Pay, as a convenient way to pay using a phone or watch to pretty much any bank account. Apple Pay is merely a facilitator to pay from any bank car…

The reduction in subscribers is due to a number of reasons: cost, variety, competition, people going back to work after lockdown. I share my daughter’s subscription (she is in the same house) and I wouldn’t have my own if she moved away. All the pro…

Why have successive UK governments not taken action against Microsoft for its ubiquitous Office suite?
-
As with any company, Apple should employ the best people for the job, not because they are male or female, of a particularly chosen gender or none, or because of race, colour, nationality or creed. It should also be borne in mind we are not all the …

This is not down to Apple. If the daughter was using the father’s account he would have had the email notifications, as I do on my Family Sharing account.

What an extraordinary claim by Microsoft. Just look at the ubiquity of Windows and Office.
