Let's hope a developer from Apple sees this and decides to fight back by copying Android in allowing users to selectively copy text from a text message 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣.

Things you won't find on an Apple phone #452
Look at how ugly that phone is, what’s the point of making a hole punch camera, if it still has a forehead. The phone would look better if they put the camera up there, and made the side bezels the same size. The screen should be equidistant from the edge of the phone.
Uhh, you can tear the dock out of macOS and put a 3rd party replacement though. It's called uBar https://ubarapp.com/
Finally, someone with some common sense. Amazing to see so many apple fanboys willing to jump on a grenade for apple just because some random dev (not google/samsung/android) copied dynamic island.
We don't use phones for the business apps we need, the screens are not big enough.
This is a random developer doing this, not Google (yet).
Who is "they"? Google? This app is not created by Google.
For once? Android is using the iOS home-bar and multitasking gestures.
I think its cool that Android developers can so quickly and openly implement things released on an iPhone for whatever its worth.... On an iPhone if you want to implement a new android feature you have to jump through hoops and jailbreak. Not cool enough for me to switch though.. I love my smooth, uncluttered, simple, minimalistic OS too much.
I feel I can comment on this as I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and a Galaxy Fold 4. Android is still laggy sometimes, yes it’s vastly improved to where it was in 2010 but it’s still not iOS levels of smooth.
I don’t think it would be Google copying this ever because this is a feature related to hardware, so unless they did it on their Pixel phone. It would likely be Samsung.
I don’t think tablet market never been alive, iPad market other hand is very alive. Google and Android companies ruined Android tablets many many years ago already.
That’s propably what this guy meant.
Well as you can see, it clearly says its a beta, which means the developer will continue to, you know, develop it
How do you like the Fold 4? They seem pretty cool, but I’m pretty sure I would destroy a folding phone as rough as I am on phones.
Took them 2 weeks to copy this feature while apple acts like its been in development for ages and makes it exclusive to only pro models.
Umm the iPad is a tablet. It’s just unfortunate that Google can’t seem to make a proper tablet OS and have apps to compete with iPadOS. It’s not the hardware because while Apple has significant advantage there, most people aren’t using a tablet for processor intensive applications. They are using it to browse the web and light computing. Right now android tablets are just oversized phones and that’s not going to work in a market with the iPad
You can but it won’t work
After you install it it asks for all permissions to be enabled.
If you don’t, you can’t use it.
And even Android gives you countdown timer warnings that you are aware about the permissions you allow😂
