I'll tell what is a shame; After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, imore closes down and 40 people bother to comment. That in itself speaks volumes.
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.

Future ruined the former Mobile Nations sites with their ads, and that’s mostly why I stopped coming.
I’m riding it out with iMore until the very end when the wheels fall off and the lights go out

iMore closing brought back memories of what I think was a lot more exciting time in the mobile tech world. I remember Android, iOS, Windows Phone, PalmOS and BlackBerry all having a place in the market. I remember buying the first Android phone in the US, the HTC Dream, and rooting it and installing custom roms. I remember the first jailbreak tools for the iphone and having to go to the library to use their wifi because we didn't have wifi at home yet. There were great podcasts covering all of these different phone OS's. The performance and hardware technology jumps from year to year aren't nearly what they used to be. I still want the newest one though. I've never been very active, but have been a member for over 14 years. It's sad to see it go but I do find myself getting my information from other sources so I'm not surprised. It was a great run.
I'll be brutally honest - I said when it was first announced that Future purchased the Mobile Nations sites, that they would ruin them. I pointed out that this is the history of Future and sadly is the typical process for them. They've purchased and ruined many amazing sites (that were favorites of mine) in the past and will sadly continue to do so.Ads was a part of it. These new “writers” was another part.
