The software quality of Apple products that I use has fallen significantly in the past few years.

Updates slow down my phone, every single update, as well as introducing errors like this or where I double tap home to change applications and instead get a blur on the screen. Desktop OS updates have incrementally slowed down the computers, notably since Mavericks (and even earlier), so ever-slower desktops are actually expected by now.

I've used iOS products for years, refusing for example to use Android, but the issues I am encountering on the phone have become ridiculous. It may be time for an old school flip phone with a week long battery.



I still use Mavericks for personal stuff. Ditched iOS for MIUI (more polished than iOS these days).


I know some people who refuse to go past Mavericks in their business. They perform video processing and streaming.

Thanks for letting me know about MIUI.
