I’m definitely not a “techie”. I can mutter my way thru an Apple product. I do however agree that sometimes these devices are not very intuitive. My wife usually steps in when she sees me yelling at my IPad or phone. Don’t feel bad autospec, it took me a few years to figure out how to post a pic from a hosting site. True story.
APPLE PHONES.......NO SERVICE
I have a new refurbished Apple phone that I have spent quit a bit of time trying to contact somebody at Apple to fix it....Its one month old......I have to wonder how a person can call a Apple person without spending the rest of there life trying to contact someone in the communication business.....I have tried e-mail, of course no body has a phone number, but if your phone doesn;t work , how would you call them anyhow......Maybe I should just sell it and get another brand that works.............What do you think ??

I understand your frustration having only just escaped the Apple autocracy. Even to escape it was a nightmare backing up my photos and transfering data off iCloud. As of December 2021 there is no simple way of transferring WhatsApp chat from iPhone to android. If it wasn’t for VLC media player I’d have given up with iPhones years ago. The entire Apple ecosystem is geared up to users buying more iCloud storage. The meagre 5GB offered for free is more or less useless to back up anything like a normal iPhone. The endless reminders about getting booster jabs remind me of the endless reminders about buying more iCloud storage. Income streams matter most. It goes without saying that life on Android is infinitely easier.
Yes, the hardware is good, but the software is simply too inflexible. It’s geared up towards those who buy/stream everything online.
Anyway, having escaped the Apple ecosystem the next step would be to escape the Google ecosystem. It’s bearable, for now at least. |
Hi, if you are planning to buy a new one like an Android phone, make sure that you transfer all the data before disposing of your old iPhone. I am sure all data there are important and you don't want to sell or give your old iPhone all stored data. If you want to learn how to transfer all data without data loss, check this out; How to Transfer Data from iCloud Backup to Android |
