I get that. That’s great. But how does that make that phone better than an iPhone? What do you do that an iPhone can’t? Is it the one or two less clicks?


about 5-7 typically.

So ultimately you can check the weather or whatever, you just have a different set of steps to get there. That's what I'm asking. Androids and iphones all do the same shite and 98% of all phone users use them for same mundane functions. It gets comical when people are so passionate about the phone wars.


If apple ever gets Viper4Android then I'll be interested in giving it a run.

Just got the beta 2. Love the Home Screen widgets and App Library. The ability to hide apps cleans everything up so nice.

They haven’t implemented default browser and mail app yet. Also, it appears they got rid of bedtime routine in the clock app. Seems pretty stable. There are some weird things like you can’t delete an app from the homescreen anymore. You only have to option to move them to the library

Bedtime routine has been moved to the health app with the new sleep tracker in watchOS 7. You can set a routine and even disable your phone at night.

Oh, I found it. That’s too much trouble for me, as my wake up time changes daily. I used it because it was convenient in the clock app, but I will just go back to regular alarms

I have been on it since beta 2 and it’s been pretty smooth. A couple of random glitches here and there, but as a former android user I love that they implemented a lot of android features

I don’t use the apple podcast app, so I don’t know what to tell you. I use Spotify for everything

I hate when people pretend like Apple has done nothing to push the smart phone industry forward. Sure, Google has beat them to the punch on some great features, but Apple was a pioneer in this industry.


Apple has always been a follower, not innovator. Just because they get credit for making something popular doesn't mean they get credit for making it.

It stopped doing it. Good to go now.

Really liking the ability to pin messages and changing group chat photos.

If simple means the best, maybe. Typically they do it the least productive way that limits advanced users' ability to get the most out of a concept/feature.
