It's a good way to push bigger screens like the iPhone X and Plus models (more expensive = more profit)!

No thanks. It's a nice feature, but then when I pick up my device to actually use it the next day I'm plagued with stupid sign back in to iCloud and enter your passcode for every device you own prompts.
The "tech-savvy" users should know how to go into settings and turn those setting "completely off" already. Or 3D touch settings app on applicable devices to do so. Just sayin
I was referring to the convenience of the toggles when swiping up from the bottom of my SE. It's preferable to having to having to launch the Settings app to do what used to be so simple in iOS 10. That's why an option in the Settings would be a fine way to satisfy everyone.
Why and how are you tired? What harm or stress does updating your iOS devices bring? If they didn’t publish updates I’m betting you would be moaning about that - seeing as you’re used to Apple things “just working”. You press update and leave the device for 10 minutes. Even if you have 20 devices, that’s not really a stress, is it? No one is saying it’s mandatory to update right this second and all devices need updated now or they will fall apart. Don’t like to update... don’t update. Simples.

Pretty sure they give us delta updates. So... it really depends on what was changed and where and how it is compiled into the rest of the OS. You are pretty much wrong because of the Delta updates (You can get the whole IPA and that is over 1gb easily)
Not sure what you are crying about. Just let the update download, apply, then restart your device & get on with your day.
So it's Apple's fault that you don't know what your password is and instead treated the keyboard input as some sort of gesture input? lol.
I was thrown off by the big heading areas at first, but then realized it helps with one-handed use. Items that I want to tap on are easier to reach thanks to the big headings (e.g. first new e-mail or message, all options in Settings).
Maybe they can adjust the typography to be more pleasant, but I don't want the size of the heading area to be any less. At least should be able to swipe down to get the maximum sized heading so that top items in a list are within reach.
No, it doesn't necessitate bigger screens because as soon as you start swiping down the list the headings go away. It does, however, help one-handed usability with bigger screens, so maybe it has something to do with the X with it's height, but I find the change useful even on my 4.7" 7.

He has a hand crank that powers his wifi router so it literally IS tiring to do those downloads in that case.
Yes, obviously QA should somehow test and be able to catch touchscreen issues from random-Chinese-touchscreen-import-of-the-week repair parts, that being something they're trying to address with 11.0.3.
Personally, I think Apple should just let such people twist, but that'd be PR they don't want.
Regarding your other rant, I agree, the Public Beta needs to go away, so that the 'l337s find something else to whine about. You can always tell... it's all the fools that show up begging for a build number.
This and the fact that they block the way to go back to a previous iOS version is short of criminal
Oh ok. Sounded like you didn't want the inconvenience of waiting for the OS to install and the device being unavailable for a few minutes. Guess I misread that. Just thought I would throw that out there in case you were not aware it was an option.
[doublepost=1507750770][/doublepost]Hey Buddy you can still update manually to iOS 10.3.3 in DFU Mode
Maybe we'll get a bi-weekly update with the iPhone X, then people can be so happy that Apple is on the case and responsive. Or, just maybe, people will start to realize how pathetic Apple's software development process has become and wake up to the fact that Apple's management is so out-of-touch that they let anything out the door, no matter how bad.

Looks like you have to change that to .6 after iOS 11.
It's all of it. The updates, signing in again... I have to do it for everyone I live with so it's a lot of devices to update... I have to wait for the people to be done with theirs (either asleep or off doing something else) do the updates, sign them back in, make sure everything works. Rinse and repeat. (First-world problems, I know..)
I've got an 8+, and getting it to work sometimes is a real PITA!
Like, yesterday, trying to move an app into a folder. ARG!!!! I finally just gave up and had the folder open all the way up to drop the app which meant then closing the damn folder to move another one to the same folder.
I think part of it is that I went from a 6+ to the 8+, and missed the whole start of the '3d touch' gimmick. I have also had the screen not respond to touches to do things like read emails, and start apps. Not quite the most intuitive feature I've ever encountered...

No, because it’s not. Unless you want to claim it’s possible for a company to release something as complex as an OS with zero bugs.
Any idea why I constantly get this message everytime I try to update over the air with all updates since ios 11? "Software Update Failed - an error occurring downloading ios 11.0.3"
I can only do it by hooking the ipad to the computer and downloading the 2 gig file...
