Anyone else getting bored with iOS?

[scruffypig]

iOS itself might not be the most exciting but what you can do with it is incredible. Get some new apps downloaded and you might change your perspective.

I agree. I think iOS is just a framework for the apps.

How can anyone get bored with an OS that works wonderfully. I'm more amazed with every update, new features and it's stability and performance compared to any others.

 

[italodance]

No iOS is good as long as you use it with third party apps of 3D touch/launcher and various widgets.

I'd settle for an app drawer and/or positioning applications wherever on the screen without needing an app before or after etc. If I can at least customize that way I'd be very happy.

Same here

 

[iPh6ne6]

Nope.

It's simple and it works.

And what it's there for, it does it very well.

That's all I need.

I've been with blackberry, IOS, Blackberry, Android and back to iOS. I'll never sway away from it again.

 

[nikkisharif]

Nope. It does what I need and syncs wonderfully with my MacBooks. I honestly don't spend a ton of time playing with the settings or anything anymore. I'm good. When & if it stops doing what I need, then and only then will I seek other options.

Not bored really, but wish there were at least some options for customizations. The older I get, the harder it is to find what I'm looking for when the screen is a sea of app icons. I frequently find myself staring at the screen and swiping back and forth trying to find what I'm looking for, only to forget what I'm looking for most of the time. This is one of the few things I miss from android, which is the ability to arrange the home screens according to what I use most, and leaving the rest in the app drawer.

Have you tried using the search function when you pull down from the home screen? Or swipe right to see frequently used apps on Siri App Suggestion widget?

Yes. When I remember to do it.

 

[JaggValor]

Yes. When I remember to do it.

Gotcha! Happens to me too, sometimes. Good thing, I don't have that many apps.

The way I look at it is this way. iOS may be somewhat boring in the sense that it doesn't have all of the whizzbang features that Android has but at least it works and it works consistently. Well OK, 95% of the time. I'd rather have overall system stability than have tons of whizzbang features because who cares about features if the system is unstable or the features are just plain half-baked.

Apple has always been a company that released features when they're ready to be released. They don't play the same "let's throw features at the wall and hope they stick" game that the Android OEMs play. If you ask me, that makes for a very cutthroat market which is exactly what the Android market is.

Samsung comes out with something new to bash LG over the head with only to have LG do the same thing to Samsung half a year later. That's not innovation, that's just stupidity.

Well I suppose the Android vs. iOS debate could go on forever with no clear cut winner. Having used both over the years I actually like both quite well. I'm with iOS now and will continue to be simply because of my Apple watch. now if Apple should ever integrate the watch with Android (I know, never gonna happen) I'll be happily switching back and forth between the two again...sometimes on a daily basis.

 

[Iphonejackson]

If Android ever gets iMessage I'm gone.

 

[sirlas]

I recently move to iOS . I had all the galaxy S and Note devises from S3 till note 7 and believe me I am not going back to android never. The stability and the speed that iOS offers, you can't find it anywhere. Sorry about my English.

Just swipe down anywhere in screen to search the app within second. Much faster way than searching an app in android.

 

[Truman82]

Well it took few years for me to understand that I don't really use phones OS for entertainment purposes at all. When I need entertainment I'll use apps for it. For the OS I only require that it works reliable and has certain small things that helps user daily basis. (For me example voice assistant that supports other languages than only English. )

 

[Jghuff]

I agree, just switched in this past December. The only things I miss are some of the features from the texting app I used called Textra
