Anonymous, 08 Jun 2019"Money isn't the top reason on that list." Seriously? You... moreLet me guess a android user, never touched Apple or more to the reason don't know why people buy Apple products? If you want to know check my comment earlier or better yet do a bit of research to find the real reasons why so many people are still staying with Apple.

What is the difference of going to Apple if developers can have their own store in Apple? Might as well switch to android instead. The point of Apple restrictions and regulating is basically controlling what software is allowed in their devices and also to prevent what is considered undesirable. For example virus ware, hack wares, Malicious apps that would harm Apple's image of reliable and safe apps for their customers.

Seriously? You're being naive. Apple's fascist control over the Appstore and iOS and biased policies towards competing app developers is the very reason why it is a trillion dollar company.
Even a big company like Spotify doesn't stand a chance competing with Apple's own music streaming service (Apple Music) because of that biased, fascist control disguised by Apple as only 'for the best' of its users and for a 'more privacy oriented', a 'more secure' Appstore ecosystem as if Apple doesn't profile users or collect any user data.
Couldn't be further from the truth:
Apple profiling its customers:

Yes Apple, open up your doors to all kinds of potential security threats. Apples APP store is closed the way it is for a reason, Money isn't the top reason on that list.

Anonymous, 07 Jun 2019One more thing. Foxconn is not a chinese company. Sorry for... moreMan difference between taivanese is like difference between India and China is like same both offers cheap labourers and provide huge economy. Despite Foxconn is Taiwanese company its first factory were opened in China Zhenzou city. Learn to read wikipedia before posting your blabbing and nonsense.
Your lack of proper education and knowledge makes me laugh.
Next: Feel free to name me a personal data which i must pay for?
Another thing. Lone individuals and huge companies adds apps to android for free where at apple store they have to pay 100 a year and even they have no guarantee that apple will alow them to be in their app store. I dont need to pay but companies needs to pay thats huge difference between frienly android store for free and strict IOS store.
(Apple users buy in app features and they use services like spotify and netflix and youtube premium. Cos this is how things should be.) This is also in google play store. Even myhome TV with preinstalled android inside can run netflix which cost me 10 bucks a month.
(In the west we use online banking extensively! We handle passports and work projects and confidential info through our phones. We want to keep our phones secure and our data private. ) Man nowdays everybody use internet banking even elderly people or my self. No matter from which country you are maybe apart Kongo and North Korea.
( There are different markets than what you have in your country.
You completely ignore how expensive and difficult it is to develop and maintain a whole OS! To license everything. To design everything. ) To make OS stop charging your phone to add bugs which slower your device to preserve battery. To lie to own customers and acts like a superman.
( You wouldn't know cos you work at a phone shop.
I work in a company that makes helicopters for military use.
9/10 use an iphone. 1/10 use a galaxy with blackberry work profiles ontop to secure it as it is required. ) Yes i have my shop and 38 stores among slovak and czech republic planning to open at least 2-5 more every year for having a shop in every bigger town.
I know more than you think. And finaly i am not here to insult anyone. I just disrespect politics of some exact companies which does oppsite as they should.

Anonymous, 07 Jun 2019You make no sense at all.
Google is banned in China.
... moreMan its not me its you.
Google is prohibited in china due to many known reasons most of them people are like addicted on things like Facebook etc.
But what does that have to do with the manufacture? Geez
You ran out of things to say and you just say random things.
Besides your chinese phones use ARM, Android, Samsung displays, Japanese memory, Japanese camera. Just manufactured in China. Like everything else. Your arguments are invalid. All of them. Once again. You make the android community look bad.
Man you saying complete nonsense. You apple is commpletely made in china, china made CPU, GPU, Samsung displays and camera bad batteries highly overpriced. You bashing wrong person.
I understand you have nothing to say so you just bash me but i cannot help you because yoour lack of knowledge and education makes you looking very poor.

Also nothing is free. On android free means you pay with your personal data.
Name apps that are free on android but you have to pay for them on iOS.
Apple users buy in app features and they use services like spotify and netflix and youtube premium. Cos this is how things should be.
You want to watch a movie? You pay for it you watch it.
Not this "watch these ads, agree to share your personal data, now watch it for free".
I mean the poor can't afford it so it's good that there is an option. But not everyone is comfortable with it.
In the west we use online banking extensively! We handle passports and work projects and confidential info through our phones. We want to keep our phones secure and our data private.

SarruKen, 06 Jun 2019So if apple suddently obeys both ios developers and ios use... moreYes, they can if they want to. However, you can be sure people would abandon iOS almost immediately in favor of an OS that doesn't require that from the user, so they won't.
That demonstrates how competition is already in place.

You mixed up design and manufacture in your head so you completely lack any understanding of the matter. Like completely!
Adidas is a German brand, using chinese cloth produced in China with Chinese laces and rubber. In your head Adidas is a Chinese brand now or any Chinese show you buy is the same quality and functionality wise as an Adidas. Therefore adidas should burn in hell.
This is exactly the same.

Apple make phone for 200 bucks and sells for 1000.
Now ask me again why i hate. Its not about me i can buy whathewer i want but many of my customers cant.

a simple dude, 06 Jun 2019Please educate yourself, i bet you never touched an IPhone. Educate where???
Apple is made in china the only thing that belongs to apple is IOS and logo of company rest is build by foxconn. Displays are from Samsung and CPU and GPU is by TSMC which is taiwanesse company.
Whole phone is assembled by china.
And the apps google play is much more user friendly and almost all apps are free.
Where apple asking 100 bucks a year from everyone who wants to add app to their store and whats worse they even deciding what to add and which will not be allowed.
Please educate me where i am wrong because all i just said is 100% correct.
If china ban foxconn same way like USA did with Huawei apple can close its bussiness.
And this 850 billion dollar company will go where it bellons. To the hell.
