    But 'what planet do you live on?' is more appropriate.
    If Apple was so principled, they wouldn't sell devices in countries where being gay is a crime or where women are punished for being raped. 

    I don't know why people keep asking this question as if anyone here can answer it. as far as I know no one here is a spokesperson for apple, so if you have an issue with their policy I suggest you take it up with them. asking rhetorical questions like this doesn't prove your point

  • Inside iOS 10: 3D Touch enhances Apple's quick Control Center shortcuts on iPhone 7 & 6s series

    The point of 3D touch is obscuring deeper controls, if you want simple, don't use it.
    On Androids you'd have to press once, go into sub menus for all those things; it is slower and you lose context by doing that.
    If you want to do more precise things, sometimes a bit more complexity is inevitable.

    Iphones these days can do so many more things than computer 10 years ago could do, and there are no miracles to get all that power.
    There is only so much screen real estate and ways of input to get things done.

    Trying to kluge "simplicity" for simplicity's sake can end up with a convoluted mess.

    BTW, my comment didn't just point to your last comment but all your other ones too.


    I have 194 posts on various topics on this site. you'll have to be a bit more specific

    Pressing harder is too complicated?

    to me, yes, it is. but it's not just 3D touch. It seems that in iOS a lot of the functionality is linked to swipes and for someone who's used to taps and presses that can get quite confusing

    have you even used them?

    I've tried using a 6S in stores and it just didn't feel like something I could ever get used to

  • Apple led effort to remove rifle emoji from Unicode 9.0, report says

    funny. I seem to recall many users here stating that they couldn't care two ways about emojis. I agree that this move isn't entirely necessary, but I think you're all blowing it out of proportion
