@lostgame: Out of interest, what device size are you running GB on? Want to upgrade my old phone to take advantage of GB's Logic integration, but I can't decide whether to get an iPhone 8 Plus or the standard model... Does screen size make a big difference on that app? (do you know...) Thanks

Nothing beats the iPad Mini / LTE model’s form factor and screen, and I use VOIP anyways.

This comment is written on iOS 10. I just wish there was a way to turn off the upgrade nag screen. Nothing better than asking for your passkey in a modal while you're trying to get shit done.

Install the tvOS beta profile and it’ll never ask you again.

Not one word of apology from Apple! The workaround involves turning off notifications individually for every app, and then turning them on after the update. If this were any other manufacturer, they would be burnt at the stake. But we somehow let Apple get away with it.

" If this were any other manufacturer, they would be burnt at the stake." Nah. Look at Samsung: you can make a TV that spies on you, a washing machine that explodes, and a smartphone that spontaneously catches on fire . And then go take a look at how their stock is doing this year. We've reached the pavlovian phase of western consumer culture: we'll just keep on buying and buying and buying, no matter what.

How has it become a pain? Been doing. Stove iOS for a while and now I'm learning React Native, it's fun.

Same. I’ve done 10 or so apps in objc/swift and now 4 in RN and even though I know native like the back of my hand I much prefer RN. Jsx and the rendering model of react is 10x better than constraints in code or storyboards. Getting android nearly for free is just a cherry on top.

Would we? We didn't burn LG at the stake for bootloops. We don't burn Microsoft at the stake for updating Windows 1p in the middle of work. Plenty of Android phones have had problems. If anything I feel like Apple gets more flak for every little thing, it just so happens this week they've had two genuinely really bad ones.

This doesn't seem a little thing to me. I use Apple primarily because I don't want headaches. But apparently every major iOS release is getting always worse, especially if you have "old" devices (calling old a phone from 2 years ago is kind of a stretch). I postponed my update because I read about the crippling battery life problems, and now there is also this bootloop...
