    Interestingly had a random discussion about this with my team last week and the android setup sounds like a nightmare. You have to download all apps
    you need in both environments twice - wasting storage and any data limits - and configure them separately but then you don't get any notifications from the other profile when using your phone e.g. MFA or messages.

    Hi Chris,

    Thanks for letting me (and the rest of us) know this, as I set up the Work/Personal profile to help someone on the ng & haven't tested it much.
    <https://i.postimg.cc/TY04xZwF/work-user-profile.jpg>

    You're constantly having to remember to switch profile to ensure you get calendar or message notifications from the different profiles.

    If "constantly" you mean an extra page comes up with "Work/Personal"
    choices (as you can see in my previous screenshot setting app defaults),
    then I agree that there is a "chance" that there's an extra page.

    Notice in my screenshot that the default is "Personal".

    1. You go to App defaults in settings
    2. You have two sets of App Defaults (Work & Personal)
    3. My default is "Personal" so there's no extra steps for me to do

    If you truly want a separation, it's better to get separate phones IYAM.

    While that's good advice, the point I was making was that iOS is designed
    as a toy operating system which is incapable of doing what Android does.

    False.


    When I signed back into iCloud on my new iPhone the apps from the
    previous phone did not migrate over.

    Hi badgolferman,

    You're not a zealot so I can speak with you in a normal adult tone, where
    you know full well I use both Android & iOS and that Alan Baker does not.

    In addition, you can surmise that my IQ is at least near normal, whereas
    it's obvious that Alan's is somewhere around 40 (proof abounds), so it's
    normal for Alan Baker to live to the left of Mount Stupid on the DK scale.

    What that means is Alan Baker is dead wrong - as he's just making it up due
    to his ignorance - but - he's supremely confident in being dead wrong too.

    This is a trait that *all* the Apple religious zealots have, which, after
    all, if the fundamental reason they say the strange things that they say.

    Better yet, I don't defend any mothership to the death - as I say the truth about all of them - where my main goal on this Apple newsgroup is...
    a. Tell the truth about Apple & learn the truth about Apple, and,
    b. Show the uneducated ignorant low-IQ zealots for what they are.

    To that end, Alan Baker is so ignorant about iOS that he is unaware that if
    the app (or the exact version you liked) is no longer on the App Store,
    then there is no way to install that app (or version) onto your new device.

    Summary: If you don't back up every app & version on iOS, you're toast;
    whereas Android can be set up to always saves every app installer & version just like every operating system other than iOS has done for decades.
    <https://i.postimg.cc/Hxb3vmv6/autosaveapk.jpg>

    Notice Android can save to the portable storage so you can pop that card
    into the new phone and all your app installers are already waiting for you.

    In addition, with Android, you can just slide the APK over from Windows,
    and that alone installs the APK (which an iPhone can only dream of doing).

    Suffice to say I know what I'm talking about, unlike the zealots, when it
    comes to how primitive the iPhone is in terms of IPA backup & re-install.
    <https://i.postimg.cc/wvsbcNBz/scrcpy05.jpg> Drag APK from Windows

    Where do you think those thousands of APKs on Windows came from?
    Android mounts as a Windows drive so all APKs are saved on Windows too!

    With Android, you save the homescreen on the old & load it back to
    the new.

    Then, EVERY app icon is on the new phone EXACTLY where it was on
    the old.

    Just like it is on an iPhone.

    That is not my experience with any iPhone I've had, personal or
    corporate. The apps get downloaded if they're still on the App Store,
    but not in the same layout or folders they've been placed into.

    Alan Baker, like all the religious zealots, is so far to the left of Mount Stupid that he actually believes apps that no longer exist are installed.

    They're not. As you've correctly noted.

    With Android, they are, since Android *never* deletes the original APK.
    Which is how all the APK extractors work such as these on Google Play.
    <https://play.google.com/store/search?q=app%20extractor&c=apps>

    In addition, what shows how horribly brain dead iOS is, any APK on Android
    that you extract works on any other Android (just like with any normal OS).

    Only on Apple systems is an IPA locked to your AppleID, even for free apps. This Apple doesn't advertise and hence the zealots are ignorant of it.

    One of the first things I do with a new phone is move most of the
    preloaded Apple programs into an Unused folder, sometimes I even delete
    them. Yet these always remain where they were when preloaded at the
    factory. I also move other icons into folders so I can have more on
    the Home page 1 screen. These do not get placed back in the same
    folders.

    There is no doubt the major difference between iOS and every other
    operating system is how crippled the IPA backup/restore truly is.

    It's shocking, actually - how crippled IPA backup & restore is
    compared to every other common consumer operating system badgolferman.

    However, it's not shocking that the zealots don't even realize it,
    as they completely fabricate IPA functionality that simply doesn't exist.
    <https://groups.google.com/g/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/search?q=ipa%20itunes%20backup%20restore%20empson>

    Note that David Empson had to many times tell Jolly Roger & nospam that
    they were completely ignorant about EVERYTHING related to IPA backup.

    I miss Michelle Steiner & David Empson but I do not miss nospam
    as he was a deceitful sadistic disgusting liar in almost all ways
    devoid of any possible human traits of purposefully helpful intent.

    Much like Alan Browne is, these people are the worst of humanity.

    Just because you can do something, doesn't mean it's automatically the

    Given the iPhone can't do hundreds (if not thousands) of basic things that every other operating system easily does, I'd rather have the choices.

    At one time iTunes allowed you to save and reinstall apps from your

    was nospam who directed me to an older version of iTunes which still
    did that. I think iTunes also allowed you to rip songs from CDs and
    put them on your phone. I have the installation program in my

    PC functions.

    I enjoy conversing with you as you can communicate like an adult would.
    Like you, I have nothing invested in any mothership but, like you, I choose
    the best combination of companies (e.g., T-Mobile) and hardware.

    I understand your concern about iTunes, as one of my worst experiences with Apple's horrible unnatural punitive restrictions on functionality was when Costco had an iPod sale - so I bought my first iPod (of which I have many).

    My first delight was the iPod was tremendously easier to use than the
    Panasonic MP3 player I already had (for less than 1/3rd the price).

    But my major disappointment was that I needed to install the iTunes
    abomination on Windows just to initialize that iPod - and worse - I
    couldn't easily copy my library of thousands of MP3s over to that iPod.

    The iTunes abomination wouldn't easily allow me to maintain multiple
    libraries which is unlike any software I had ever seen then or since.

    WTF? What is Apple's problem?, I thought. The damn iTunes even wiped out completely my library a few times - that's how atroicious iTunes was.

    Googling for how to populate an iPod like a normal human being (and not
    like an Apple zealot), I found the SharePod freeware & it was instant love!
    <https://i.postimg.cc/MT0CxMbZ/ipod007.jpg>
    <https://i.postimg.cc/rsj2G0KZ/ipod006.jpg>

    <https://i.postimg.cc/hPMKTwm4/ipod002.jpg>
    <https://i.postimg.cc/jdRsWKLk/ipod001.jpg>

    With SharePod freeware, you didn't even need to install it on Windows.
    Yup. You don't install it. You just run it off of the iPod.

    Fancy that!

    When you connect the iPod to Windows (without iTunes installed), you click
    on the SharePod executable sitting on the iPod, and it runs on WIndows.

    Then you just slide MP3s from any number of iPods to and from any number of
    PCs without knowing or caring which "AppleID" is registered to anything.

    SharePod worked like normal software (until Apple bought them out).

    By way of comparison, the iTunes abomination of bloatware added so much
    crap (QuickTime for example) and so many services (Bonjour for example)
    that it was a horrid mess - and worse - the iTunes abomination REMOVES functionality since when iTunes was installed, it stopped SharePod working.

    At the time, I asked for help on the Apple newsgroups and that's when I
    found out how sadistically disgusting those like Jolly Roger & nospam were.

    They repeatedly denied everything about iTunes, brazenly lying that it does what anyone who has ever used iTunes knows it doesn't do - and they even
    denied that it breaks the wonderful SharePod freeware beautiful connection.

    The fact is, when you install iTunes, you *lose* sharing functionality.

    Ask me how I know this:
    <https://i.postimg.cc/fRtZFGSt/sharepod01.jpg>

    Note: The uneducated ignorant zealots know NOTHING of how Apple products
    work, let alone how normal products work, which is why I can understand you completely when you talk about iTunes; but the low-IQ zealots can't.

    Anyway, back to the topic, perhaps the most brain-dead component of the iOS ecosystem is how horridly primitive IPA backup and restore capability is.

    You can still install apps that are no longer on the App Store with
    third-party tools like iMazing. As usual, Arlen doesn't even consider possibilities when it comes to slinging dirt about Apple and Apple
    users. He just spouts bullshit with abandon because it makes him feel
    better about his life choices to belittle others.

    If you are willing to canvass your friends, you can find one of them with
    the older app already backed up and you can beg them for their old IPA.

    Sadly, this is what it means to own a device designed as a dumb terminal.

    No other operating system (other than from Apple) requires you to back up
    your installers given all other operating system automatically save them.

    Only iOS has such an atrociously primitive IPA backup/restore methodology (which, after all, is based on the dumb-terminal design of iOS overall).

    That's because I'm well aware the iPhone is designed as a dumb terminal.

    This is yet another case where iOS can't do what every other OS does.

    These dingbat trolls don't know the difference between transferring your

    up the phone as new and signing into iCloud. The former results in the
    EXACT location of every folder and every app (and every widget &

    does not.

    Heh heh heh... Now that we've established how the dumb-terminal brain-dead

    She. Does that make a difference?

    Yes.

    As has been presented to you already:

    'Choose how you want to transfer your data.

    If you download from iCloud, your apps and data download in the
    background so that you can start using your new device right away.

    If you transfer directly from your previous device, you'll need to wait
    for the transfer to complete on both devices before you can use them.'

    <https://support.apple.com/en-ca/102659>

    Note that if you choose the latter, you will wait for everything to come
    over directly from your old iPhone, but no downloading is required.

    Now: how long did the technician have your iPhone?

    I think I was there 15-20 minutes. That includes authenticating for
    the MDM software and transfer of the phone number through VZW portal.
    The required Microsoft apps were already preinstalled before I showed
    up.

    I mentioned earlier, the transfer method used was direct phone to
    phone. Considering this was a work phone, there was very little for it
    to transfer since all mail is on the Microsoft Exchange servers and I
    don't have personal apps or pictures on it.

    I think you'll find that the reason everything wasn't where you left it
    was because this wasn't the standard Apple iOS migration, but rather one mediated by your company's MDM software.

    When you perform an ordinary iOS migration from an old device to a new
    one, everything is right where you put it.

    By the way, I appreciate that you are not rude and obnoxious like Jolly Roger. It is far more pleasant conversing with you.

    Well thank you.

    But you should consider be more forthright about things you're wrong about.

    You said:

    'I wanted to know what he found objectionable so those specific items
    could be addressed. '

    I provided those specific things...

    ...and you never replied on point.

    Hi badgolferman,

    My main point is that Apple's IPA dumb-terminal backup/restore is mired in
    the Stone Age in that no other operating system is as primitive as iOS is.

    If you don't have access to the IPA on the App Store, you can't back it up. Right down to the exact version (if that's what you want to transfer over).

    If you can't back it up, you can't move it over to another dumb iPhone.

    The zealots lied. You can't do it on iOS.
    Yet, it works on every other operating system but the dumb-terminal iOS.

    That was my main point about how poorly designed Stone-Age iOS truly is.
    The rest of iOS backup/restore of your iPhone setup is just further detail.

    The zealots lied. You can't do it on iOS.
    Yet, it works on every other operating system but the dumb-terminal iOS.

    That was my main point about how poorly designed Stone-Age iOS truly is.
    The rest of iOS backup/restore of your iPhone setup is just further detail.

    Yes.

    'Choose how you want to transfer your data.

    If you download from iCloud, your apps and data download in the
    background so that you can start using your new device right away.

    If you transfer directly from your previous device, you'll need to
    wait for the transfer to complete on both devices before you can use
    them.'

    Note that if you choose the latter, you will wait for everything to
    come over directly from your old iPhone, but no downloading is
    required.

    Now: how long did the technician have your iPhone?

    By the way, I appreciate that you are not rude and obnoxious like Jolly
    Roger. It is far more pleasant conversing with you.

    Well thank you.

    False.

    When I signed back into iCloud on my new iPhone the apps from the

    These dingbat trolls don't know the difference between
    transferring your data from the old phone (or a backup of it) to
    the new one and setting up the phone as new and signing into
    iCloud. The former results in the EXACT location of every folder
    and every app (and every widget & shortcut too) being transferred
    to the new device. The latter naturally does not.

    Heh heh heh... Now that we've established how the dumb-terminal
    brain-dead iOS does it, how do you think Android re-installs apps,
    Jolly Roger, with all the app icons, widgets, homescreen folders &
    even the data itself in EXACTLY the same locations on the new phone
    as they were on the old phone.

    I'll wait for you to tell us...

    HINT: No need for the Internet (i.e., no Google, no login, no

    You can do exactly that with an iOS device.

    that you can indeed transfer the exact location of every folder and

    iPhone.

    I think I was there 15-20 minutes. That includes authenticating for
    the MDM software and transfer of the phone number through VZW portal.
    The required Microsoft apps were already preinstalled before I showed
    up.

    I mentioned earlier, the transfer method used was direct phone to
    phone. Considering this was a work phone, there was very little for
    it to transfer since all mail is on the Microsoft Exchange servers
    and I don't have personal apps or pictures on it.

    I think you'll find that the reason everything wasn't where you left
    it was because this wasn't the standard Apple iOS migration, but
    rather one mediated by your company's MDM software.

    Nah. He'll just claim "ignorance" and pretend Arlen is right.

    When you perform an ordinary iOS migration from an old device to a new
    one, everything is right where you put it.

    Everyone but Arlen and badgolferman knows this from first-hand
    experience. But they'll never acknowledge or admit this reality,
    because: troll.

    I have old installation programs which can no longer be installed on newer versions of Windows.

    I can discuss nuance of detail differently with you than with the zealots.

    First, as rational intelligent well-informed adults, we should never
    disagree with a fact - which is my main point with these religious zealots.

    Jolly Roger is claiming that the IPA is manufactured out of thin air,
    which is, even he knows, a brazen lie, as only Apple operating systems do
    NOT store, by default, the original installer (at the time of
    installation).

    If you don't already have a backup of that IPA (which you had to do on your own), then if that IPA is no longer on the App Store, you can't re-create
    it out of thin air (even with the payware iMazing app he speaks of).

    *Do we first agree on that fundamental fact, badgolferman?*

    Once we agree on that fact, then we have to see how other operating systems
    do it as my claim is only Apple operating systems are brain dead this way.

    Let's just compare with Windows & Android as those are what I use daily.

    1. iOS: Every IPA is deleted from the device after installing, by default.
    2. Android: Every APK is saved, by default, on the device,
    after installing.
    3. Windows: Every exe/msi is saved, by default, on the device, after
    installing.

    You have to understand why agreeing on facts is important, as with the religious zealots, they don't even think about facts. Facts don't matter.

    But to adults, facts are what we form our assessments upon.
    An adult's belief system is fundamentally based on facts.

    Now, assuming you agree with those fundamental facts, it's up to the
    developer if they feel like supporting the existing operating system.

    On Windows, you'd be hard pressed to find software that no longer works,
    but it does exist. I'm using Adobe Acrobat 6 and Microsoft Office 7, and
    both of those work just fine even as they must be something like 20 years
    old, so it's clear that most Windows software works decades later.

    Not all.
    But most.

    Same with Android.

    Even better, while iOS inserts a unique AppleID into every app you install, that's not done on Windows and Android so an app that you installed on one Windows or Android will work on another in most cases.

    Since we're adults, there are nuances in detail, as, for example, it could
    be a 64-bit installer which might not work on a 32-bit machine, or it could
    be a firefox executable where it checks for the Windows version as Mozilla doesn't feel like supporting Windows XP (which is something like 30 years
    old so I don't blame them).

    But fundamentally, the reason I say iOS is primitive and brain dead and
    that it's designed as a dumb terminal is partly due to the Stone-Age manner that Apple handles IPAs, which is unlike how every other OS does things.

    Do we agree on that?
    If you need clarification, let me know.

    But please don't just deny everything you don't like about Apple which is
    what Jolly Roger and all the Apple religious zealots do all day, every day.

    Hi Jolly Roger,

    I have two purposes on the Apple newsgroups, one of which is to tell the
    truth about Apple products and the other is to show the world what you uneducated ignorant low-IQ Apple fundamentalist religious zealots are.

    You are the one who is desperate to make excuses for Apple to "explain
    away" iOS' primitive dumb-terminal brain-dead design which does not save
    the IPA at installation time by default - and hence - you're the one who brazenly and repeatedly callously duplicitously lied claiming that iMazing
    had the amazing ability to manufacture the desired IPA out of thin air when
    the offering was no longer on the App Store - not me.

    The fact you strange nutcases believe IPAs can be made up out of thin air
    when they don't exist shows you religious zealots for what you really are.

    Why do these Apple zealots feel desperate to brazenly lie

    Projection from an Android zealot.

    The fact remains the facts whether or not you like those facts, JR.

    1. Android always saves the installation APK, by default.
    2. iOS does not.

    You *hate* the Stone-Age primitive design of the iPhone, Jolly Roger.
    But you hating it doesn't change that Apple designed iOS that way.

    Let's not talk about the easy data, such as your contacts and your images, which even the brain dead primitive iOS has no problem copying from A to B.

    Also, since most Apple users are iSheep, let's not worry about other data
    these ignorant Apple users store on the cloud such as calendar data.

    Let's talk about all the data stored in all your apps, such as your map
    apps (such as OSMAnd) and your system-wide firewall settings, shall we?

    Oh wait, the primitive dumb-terminal brain-dead iOS can do firewalls; so
    let's just look at the third-party (non-Google, non-Apple) map apps.

    Take OSMAnd and/or Avenza and/or OuterSpatial and/or MagicEarth, etc.
    How do you bring over their data EXACTLY so that they're used the same?

    On Android, you simply bring the portable sd storage card over.
    Voila! All your data is EXACTLY where it was before on the old phone.

    And you didn't have to store anything on someone else's server to do it.

    My main point is that Apple's IPA dumb-terminal backup/restore is

    LOL! Imagine saying this with a straight face... What a fucking fool.

    Every operating system NOT Apple, saves the original installer by

    Laughably false, and you're desperately trying to deflect from the point which is that people transfer their data (including all of their apps
    and their home screen layouts) from old iPhones to their new iPhones
    every day - something you claim isn't possible.

    Hi Jolly Roger,

    I have two purposes on the Apple newsgroups, one of which is to tell the
    truth about Apple products and the other is to show the world what you uneducated ignorant low-IQ Apple fundamentalist religious zealots are.

    You are the one who is desperate to make excuses for Apple to "explain
    away" iOS' primitive dumb-terminal brain-dead design which does not save
    the IPA at installation time by default - and hence - you're the one who brazenly and repeatedly callously duplicitously lied claiming that iMazing
    had the amazing ability to manufacture the desired IPA out of thin air when
    the offering was no longer on the App Store - not me.

    The fact you strange nutcases believe IPAs can be made up out of thin air
    when they don't exist shows you religious zealots for what you really are.

    Why do these Apple zealots feel desperate to brazenly lie

    Projection from an Android zealot.

    The fact remains the facts whether or not you like those facts, JR.

    1. Android always saves the installation APK, by default.
    2. iOS does not.

    You *hate* the Stone-Age primitive design of the iPhone, Jolly Roger.
    But you hating it doesn't change that Apple designed iOS that way.

    I can discuss nuance of detail differently with you than with the zealots.

    First, as rational intelligent well-informed adults, we should never

    The fact you strange nutcases believe IPAs can be made up out of thin air

    The facts are that
    a. Android saves the APK installer on the device, by default
    b. iOS does not

    In addition, the AppleID is embedded into each IPA you install.
    No other operating system tags every IPA directly to your ID.

    The result is that app migration on Android works even when the specific
    app and version is no longer available on the Google Play Store.

    Meanwhile, with the primitive design of iOS, if the app version is no
    longer on the Apple App Store, you can't migrate that app.

    And no, amazing as the iMazing payware is, you brazenly lied when you
    claimed that iMazing could manufacture that IPA out of thin air, JR.

    Heh heh heh ... so you agree that with iOS if the app that you want to

    Whether that is true or not, it has nothing to do with iOS being

    It may be a choice you don't like, but it says nothing about the quality
    of Apple's software.

    One of the useful things I do on the Apple newsgroups is study zealots.

    You are an Apple fundamentalist zealot.

    All of the Apple zealots have three inter-related commonalities:
    a. None of you have anywhere near a normal IQ
    b. Hence, none of you zealots are formally educated
    c. As what shows up in all your posts are that you're always ignorant

    But that alone isn't what makes you strange people Apple zealots.

    What makes you strange people Apple fundamentalist zealots is...
    A. You're all herd animals
    B. You identify with Apple's (brilliant) advertising
    C. But you hate it when Apple never is what Apple says it is

    So what do you zealots do when Apple isn't what you thought it was?
    1. You first deny all facts about Apple that you didn't know
    (which, see above, is a *lot* of facts since you know nothing)
    2. Then you make excuses for why Apple does what Apple always does
    (which are childish excuses such as Samsung made Apple do it)
    3. Lastly, you deflect the conversation away from Apple's faults
    (which is where your childish mentality has the most leeway)

    You hate me because I expose you for what you are.
    And that's OK.

    That's why I'm here.
