    *Apple's native apps need to finally break free from iOS updates*
    By David Price, Editor, Macworld, JUN 28, 2022

    "At the moment, updating your iPhone or iPad is like buying a newspaper.
    It's a package deal: you either take it all or walk away with nothing."

    It's no longer shocking how incredibly ignorant you iKooks are, nospam.
    *You claim all facts you _hate_ about Apple are wrong.*

    You have absolutely zero idea _how_ iOS is built back at the factory.
    "Individual app updates in particular are perfectly suited to a
    pick-and-mix approach, but *that's not how iOS works*. If you want
    the Mail update, for example, you have to download iOS 16."

    You're actually _desperate_ to claim iOS isn't a monolithic build.
    "Cut individual apps from the iOS apron strings and they can
    push updates as and when it suits them. Users get new features
    on a timely basis, Apple gets to take one more advantage
    away from Android"

    By denying facts, you are proving you know absolutely nothing about iOS.
    "[iOS] is like putting a minimum reading age on a newspaper
    because it may contain graphic war photography and then refusing
    to sell the comics separately."

    The fact is... _plenty_ of articles back up my claim that the
    monolithic stone-age antiquated iOS build structure is primitive.

    "*Apple's antiquated iOS update* policy is locking users
    out of crucial app updates.

    Challenge to these ignorant low-IQ no education fact-free iKooks:
    Find just one article that backs up your claims.
    *Name just one*

    Bear in mind there _are_ important exceptions, but they're rare!
    "Apple already makes some exceptions to the package approach.
    Security updates, for example, are considered too important to
    be kept from older devices, and we periodically report that
    Apple has released a patch for a previous version of macOS or iOS.
    The company recognizes that setting a blanket hardware compatibility
    requirement isn't fair or efficient for security - but there are
    many more cases where a piecemeal approach would help."

    --
    If you're going to say all facts you don't like about Apple are wrong,
    (much like flat earthers do about the earth) at least provide a URL
    that backs up your idiotic claims (which these iKooks can never do).
