@AfricanTech I wasn't actually talking to you - and was politely asking for examples of said apps from @airborne ?
And whether the same limitations that iOS currently has applies to the iPad ?
Well, I was replying to your question around "whether the same limitations that iOS currently has applies to the iPad". Should I not have answered? Was that question exclusively aimed at @airborne ?

You have developed a really strange victim mentality with respect to your iOS usage.

I engage in good faith which you then devolve.

I've gathered that everything that iPhone can't do well is niche / edge case to every iPhone user - so you don't need to tell me again ;)
No man, you're just being snaaks and playing the victim now - why do you find it so hard to accept that I don't use any of the functions/apps that you have problems with - I just don't. That's no reflection on you, that's a reflection of my reality, not yours. There are plenty of things that are small annoyances for me on iOS - they're just small enough that I don't feel the need to speak about them on a forum.

You said it was an edge case situation - and I said regardless, the fact remains iOS apps aren't always as functional, fast or polished as claimed

Is it worth the below ?

Just ignore the post as I didn't say anything that should have triggered you? There is no Apple bashing or anything in the post at all. I see posts that say Android doesn't get updates at the same time - but I don't even reply because it's a fact *shrug*

you really do need to let go of this bee in your bonnet (you'll notice people squealing about all sorts of iOS issues in various threads on MyBB)

I said it's an edge case for me

Anyway, peace out, enough has been said.

There is actually one example of a piece of software that is only available for iPads. An app called Procreate, used for digital art. Android has alternatives, but nothing quite like it.

Used this as the example because there are people who have gone out of their way to get an iPad just to draw on said app with the apple pencil.

There is no software stabilisation on the phone unless you want to try one of the third party apps. I don't think Apple's Photos or iMovie (on the phone) ever had it. Google did have it but removed it.

Your best option is to transfer it off the phone, using that laboriously slow lightning connection, and doing on a computer.

What’s this lighting connector stuff?

Airdrop all the way…or if you used Cloud it would already be on your device for editing.

50K and how long do you get OS updates before you have to buy a new one?

Cables are faster and more reliable.

Why I would round trip unedited video to the cloud is beyond me, especially on mobile data.

Well, based on the current supported iPad Pro for iPad OS16 it looks like you'll get at least 7 years of updates to the new OS and security updates for longer than that.


IPad OS 16:
iPad Pro (all models) - launched 2015 running iOS 9
