    Sponge, 06 Oct 2021so this means Google Pay can be used on iOS devices as well?No they just pay and get away
    SAME
    AS
    ALWAYS

      so this means Google Pay can be used on iOS devices as well?

        Seeing most of the comments here being very anti-EU is just so sad. How much can you guys love a brand to come here and justify their practices? Y'all hired to do Apple PR?

        The EU is the only place which actually cares about consumers in this god forsaken world.


        I honestly think Apple as a brand has played all the psychological tricks perfectly to have people completely justify all its practices and frankly sky high prices....

          Anonymous, 06 Oct 2021I simply don't know what to say about this EU what eve... moreRight right,But when US and A force tik tok to sell to some americans company shares or part of the company to be able to operate in US,no problem,how about that time us and A banned Huawei,how about ZTE?ooo No europe got a problem with the big american company,but when us gov have a problem with any1 else....NO problem....Thinking like this makes ppl dislike ....

            AnonD-1016461, 06 Oct 2021EU's only source of money : Apple they're still ... moreYes that's correct, the entire EU is so poor that the odd millions that come in now and then from fining Apple is the only thing that keeps the EU running. Smart.

              It's time to start convincing people to switch away from Apple products and make the world open source.

                People seem to be ignorant to the fact that more & more devices/things (tangible or not) you think you 'BOUGHT', you actually 'DIDN'T', but rather you are basically 'RENTING'!!
                I think LR mentioned this in one of his videos recently.
