Meaning she has an iPhone but if you have one she won’t date you??

not sure. I think I got that mixed up.

other iphone users texts actually show up as blue, I think. See, I don't own an iphone and it's showing.

I mean seriously. It sucks poo poo. Just super LOL at anyone who actively chooses an iphone over an android.

I just spent hours trying to get some music on an iphone. Without using itunes. Took a while and I eventually got the music on there. But the iphone music player couldn't see it.

I then spent less than 5 minutes doing the same thing on my android and it worked perfectly.

Iphone sucks poo poo.

When I had an Iphone I used https://www.copytrans.net/copytransmanager/ op.

Edit: Don't download the installer. Its just a front end to download all their other poo poo. Scroll down and grab copytrans manger itself.

Edit2: you may or may not need the driver installer. https://www.copytrans.net/support/install-iphone-ipod-touch-and-ipad-drivers-without-installing-itunes/

Oh yeah lets install another app to do something every other non-apple computer in the world can do without an app. This definitely redeems apple phones!

This displeases Dev- ..van. Shut up.
My rule of thumb with iPhones is to only upgrade them when the one you currently have falls off the iOS update eligibility list. 4-6 years generally gives Apple enough time to accumulate improvements that justify the cost; they (and all smart phone manufacturers if I’m being honest) certainly don’t know how to wow me with novelty anymore, so I just use that standard and it works alright.

Example, iPhone 14. Lots of improvements here and there (in the Pro/Pro Max line specifically. I swear the 14 and Plus models are all the leftover 13s carriers couldn’t give away as part of plan upgrade offers, stuck in new cases), but they also have some fundamental issues that scream “Skip me!”. 128gb entry level hdd on a thousand dollar phone with a 48 megapixel camera and no option to slot in additional storage? Still haven’t figured out usb-c? They need to learn to skip a year when their ideas aren’t fully baked.

Then my experience with intentional Android users (as opposed to people who got them free with their carrier’s contract) is that they like fussing with poo poo. It’s really important that your phone gives you the option to tweak everything, endlessly, forever. Just buy a fidget cube, goddamn.

Where in my post does it say this? Why do you assume a post mocking apple phones is a direct shot against you? Why does making fun of apple do this to people? Nobody cares if you make fun of Android phones.

You know you're old when you still think about storage capacity on your device. I haven't thought about my cellphone's storage in years and it's never been a problem, but that was because I made a conscious decision to just let the cloud penetrate me. Give up old man, you shouldn't be making hour long 4k videos on your cellphone anyway.

Video recordings? Pictures? Feh, that’s social animal stuff. I don’t leave the house without at least 200 gigs of bullshit music stored on my person. The only thing that steadies my nerves is knowing that, no matter how collapsy the infrastructure gets while I’m out, I could put on a Flying Saucer Attack or Lumerians record with limited issue.

I dont know I read your post again and it still seems like you think I'm trying to stan for apple when I was just trying to give op some advice. Anyways I haven't had an Iphone since my iPhone 4 broke. Currently rocking a galaxy s10e which I really like.

Maybe I misread your post oh well no worries either way.
