Maybe Apple had to at least tell them the new resolutions not necessarily the screen size and everything would have been fine.
Now Apple has to take an action and force a new update to Xcode that won't accept any apps with resolution less than that of the 6 Plus and force their Developer Portal on AppStore not to accept any apps packages by an old Xcode.
If developers don't update their apps then this device will fail just like all other good devices as BlackBerry 10 devices that had no luck on their OS. It's either Apple forces the new resolution AND never accept new app updates unless they are optimized for the 6 Plus or this device is going out of business soon.
Unfortunately the 6 Plus is not a lucky device, first it had the bend gate which happened in just 10 faulty devices out of 10 million sold iPhone 6 devices in total with at least 25% of them are 6 Plus. It then had the antenna problem with iOS 8.0.1.
The more time passes the more I miss Steve Jobs, that new CEO I am sorry but is a retard. Apple Shareholders should do something about it and change him in the next annual meeting.
