iBooks is better in appearance over Kindle and it has an advantage that you can buy books directly in the app.  With Kindle you have to buy via the browser or kindle store.

When Kindle app first came out, you can buy books directly from within the app until Apple killed it and prohibit the app from doing so since then.

Frankly I don’t care how buggy they are so long as Apple fixes it and hey guess what? Apple fixed the latest bug just over a day once it was made public knowledge. Windows still has bugs from the Windows NT3.51 days which means it still has 30 year old bugs that can’t be fixed or won’t be fixed despite Windows supposedly having a ground up rebuild. If that was a house it would be condemned by now.

Wrong.  It was made public on the Apple developers forum on November 13th. (See https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/79235 )  It took more than 2 week before it was fixed.

1) Colonization is a loaded word for India (and a million more places once dominated by the British).

2) I wish Apple would build into their phone app a service that would check the potential validity of a phone number. It should take no time at all to send that number to their Siri servers to then check against whatever database they would use and then send back any pertinent info to be displayed.
