So I just got snapchat and I apparently already have an account which has a really old screen name of mine as the username. I haven't used this name since like 2009 and I've only had an iphone for a couple of years so I'm really confused.
Sometimes people will ask me to help them move their photos on their iPhones to the computer and the needless difficulty of it just drives me crazy.
I don't understand why they're so popular. They're not easier to use, even for the technologically impaired. If you sync the wrong thing, you can end up losing all your photos. They're overpriced and hard to use. And because you can't do much with it, it eventually gets really boring. But it seems people can't wait to get the next new iPhone.
The android on the other hand… You can pretty much do whatever you want with it. If you get a good Android phone, they look just as nice as, if not nicer than, an iPhone. I think the higher-end Androids are overpriced too but at least they don't drive you insane trying to move around photos and stuff.
So what am I missing? If people think it's a status symbol, then how is it a status symbol when all it says is you're willing to buy an overpriced product that is hard to use. And some people get into debt just to buy them, so how is it a status symbol? It tells you nothing about your true status.
Is our human race stupid?
Added (1). I wrote 4 paragraphs and now more, because people around me prefer iPhones yet when they need to do anything with it, I'm the one they come to, because they don't know how to do it. So guess how many iPhones I have to deal with. But they keep updating the iOS, what worked before doesn't work anymore. It always takes me hours to just try to download or upload the photos.
Added (2). So it annoys me, and I guess I could refuse to help them, but I'm just nice. But still I get annoyed. And I see you have attacked me as a person because you don't have a better argument, because what I've said is true. By the way I have an iPhone and an iPad but they were given to me as gifts. I did enjoy them in the beginning but the constant updates, the locked system, are super annoying and today you couldn't get me to buy one.
Added (3). I'm seriously wondering what's the hype about iPhones that people constantly need to buy new ones when their old one still work.
Added (4). Just don't update, because it will make your old iPhone super slow. Then you'll really have a reason to buy a new one.
If someone were to go to Mexico from the states and said person has an iPhone that s typically using iMessage (making the texts blue, and reading "delivered" below the sent message) and while visiting in Mexico the texts are still showing as blue on my end (not green. Which is what usually happens if an iPhone is out of range or in an area of no service) but not stating "delivered" below the text. Is the person getting the texts? Because a similar situation occurs when someone blocks someone on their iPhone. The messages are blue but never say "delivered" can anyone answer this?
So my friend gave me his iphone 6plus and i sold it on ebay because it was broken and had to be unlocked for me to use it but i found a place to fix it cheap and unlock so now i don't won't to sell it anymore
I had two friends who had my phone today. One of them, somehow, did something somewhere that made the flashlight flash when I get a text. I just discovered it about five minutes ago, but have been receiving texts all day without problem. I looked in the Settings app under Notification and the Messages app. What else could it be?
Added (1). The friends both were playing around with it in the morning.
Why is the iPhone so popular when it's such a pain to move data to and from it? - 1
Added (1). It's a pain because you can't just plug it in like you would a flash drive and just move data around. You want to put one song onto the phone and you need to look it up how to do that exactly. Why should it take so much work? If you're using multiple computers, you can't just sync. God knows what you have to do.
I just got a new iPad and want to move the data I have from my iPhone to it as I do not want to start downloading everything again. My question is whether it is possible to do that or can this only be done for an iPhone to an iPhone and an iPad to an iPad? P. S I still want to keep that data to my iPhone.
Would insurance cover iPhone 6 for a minor crack? - 1
Something weird happened with my iphone 6 where the screen is sometimes non responsive and is very faded in the display. I have an appointment at the apple store to have them look at it but if they tell me I have to get a new phone is it possible to instead just switch my plan to one of my family members old iphone 4s until the time I can upgrade my phone?
I have a Samsung Intensity II, and my friend has an iPhone. When I send him a message, it says it was delivered successfully, but he never gets it. When he tries to send a message to me, he gets a message that says "message blocked" and I never get the message. What should I do? I could text him just fine two days ago…
