Still missing a system wide option for Touch ID to open apps, which you can enable/disable on a per app basis, like notifications.

Because android phones suck! I sometimes have my issues with iPhones but I also have a separate android phone I have to use sometimes and it sucksssssss. iPhone is so much quicker to use and user friendly. Android is not intuitive at all.
When you say, "you must be new here", are you referring to these forums? Where it's almost like a game to see who can complain about the highest number of things in a single post?
I love the bedtime alert, I think they just over-marketed it and made people think it's some fancy sleep tracker. I'm totally fine with bedtime reminders. I've had a timed reminder set on my phone for about a year now because otherwise I'll stay up until 4am.
Probably where GPS last got a clear signal is the approximated position of your car: not far from the entrance.
As for story and position: that's where the note and photo feature come in!
I usually remember very well where I parked, but in new cities, especially when I arrive at day and leave at night this might be super useful.
I assume it won't work unless you have a CarPlay-activated car though?
I mean, how would iOS otherwise know you parked a car when in fact you left a bus?
Sucks in that case, because I don't have a CarPlay-equipped car and I'll be damned to buy an aftermarket unit for a 2009 Fiat Panda that isn't even mine. Hah!

If you think Android is unintuitive to use, try developing for it.
Java is the worst language ever. If it were an animal, it would be a hippo - slow as hell, eats up all your resources (battery, RAM), and is ugly as sin both to program in and to look at (horrible syntax, bloated garbage collector).
Swift is a million times better (especially 3) and choosing iOS for development will make your life a lot easier.
That's what I have to remind myself. I can get behind the wider range of font sizes, but the Music app even enlarges body text, which seems like kind of a passive aggressive move by the designers on that project. You have to respect the scale of the system you're working in.
I agree with the Apple Music font changes, but I finally opened News, and I think it actually think it looks really nice in there.
So it's a pretty useless feature that won't really work then? Unless you park on the top level or use an outside car park.
It could be a useless feature for those that park on an inner level of a parking garage. But for the many people that don't, it will be very useful.
The 6s barometer can tell you on what story or floor you parked. And the accelerometer, gyro and compass can estimate how far into the garage you may have driven before you started walking.
I like the idea of touch to unlock and not to go to the home screen IF unlocking will let me see private information on the widgets. Like, if a stranger picks up my phone, he won't see my appointments, etc, but I'll be able to check stuff without going to the home screen because my finger unlocked the access.
I know. I'm acknowledging that my iPad will finally get the things my Nexus got last year via... iOS 10. Thank goodness Apple have their photocopiers going so iOS can catch up
You could always sell your iPad and use your Nexus instead if you really believe that iOS is just playing catch up.I know. I'm acknowledging that my iPad will finally get the things my Nexus got last year via... iOS 10. Thank goodness Apple have their photocopiers going so iOS can catch up

(I actually like both, shockingly. This year's updates were definitely a lot of "we've done what Google did" though)
I definitely prefer to complain about one thing per post, but just make that one thing as broad as possible. Like iOS and
Agree. Probably it was Jony himself.
People whined about Music app being too hard to use, so they got a simplified version.

And Google has copied from Apple just as much as Apple has copied from them. It's the way things work in the smartphone world.
Which is completely fine. There's a huge difference between saying you don't like something and throwing a fit because something isn't exactly the way you prefer it to be. I mean, I really don't like that I can't group notifications by apps anymore. But I'm not going to go on a long-winded rant about how Tim Cook sucks, Apple can't do anything right anymore, etc.
The thing is, it's not simplified! It didn't look any easier to use, the font being so big only looks stupid, and it doesn't really solve THE problem!
