I actually recently charged up an old treO. Worked fine. Had a bunch of apps i wrote on it that i had long since forgotten about. Was nice to show to my daughter.
Got a tip for us?

Cool! I really like the Treo. It was 'cool'. I'm bummed that it didn't survive charging. I also had a Palm II (among others). It swelled so much, I threw it in water to stop it from burning my house down!
is Apple somehow looking to get 100% at some time in the future? Seems every iOS major update, the % increases.
That's a plus ? ok. I guess the old saying "Why are you so happy not being able to use 32-bit apps?"
Not cherry-picking for an answer, just thought you wouldn't have upgraded otherwise.

Obsolete? So are you saying that any device that the manufacturer has said isn't getting the latest and greatest OS update is effectively worthless?
Let's take the years old galaxy s8? Worthless as its not on android P or whatever the most recent one is.. Well my son Is currently playing fortnite on it, he Snapchats, tweets, mails, YouTube, etc etc etc. All very well. Please explain how's it obsolete? I'll wait....

I really wish I had never updated to 13 because 13 has horrible battery life compared to 12
Android 10 is the current version of Android. Looking forward to market penetration stats from Google, should be entertaining. For context: nine months after Android 9 was released, it was only on 10% of devices.

android 10 quite fast adoption in my google analytic in my website. 9 also. They still people stuck with their old phone android 6 and 7 and broken screen. As developer, i only support 8 and above and ios 11 above for my current company i work with and my own apps swiftui ios13 above only.Android 10 is the current version of Android.

With what device? All of our iOS devices seem to have the same battery life under 13.
I use to think that until I discovered Samsung’s unlocked phones were always the last to get updates and Pixels would go months with bogs that were never fixed.
i use Android as well as iOS. I like both. But the lack of updates on Android devices is something that annoys me.
premium samsung update quite fast but non premium will wait 2 month. While apple it based on hardware. My ipod touch will stuck on ios12 and it more on test device for now. Still got market people use ios12 and iphone 6.
As opposed to the plethora of Android phone that are ‘capable’ to upgrade to the latest OS yet have been left out of an upgrade since their manufacturer has been lazy or provided an arbitrary reason (or none at all, lol) for not offering the upgrade?
sorry is Apple planned their deceives and OS support long ahead for maintaining OS upgrades on devices 5yrs old or newer actually bothers you.
From the quality of that post, I take it you’re an Android guy?
Anyways can’t wait to see Google’s official stats on Android 10 adoption. I’m guessing it’s at 15% tops, next to Apple’s 92% for iOS 13.
read my signature lol. I have android phone and iphone lol.
Most of my issues have been related to playback of music that I've ripped, which isn't a priority for Apple anymore. I had an issue where the lyrics weren't showing on my iPhone - that took two operating systems to fix. My most recent issues are… I can't initiate playback of music stored on my phone with my Apple Watch, playback of protected files requires my Apple ID every three days, Apple Watch stays on the last app despite the setting. I've had other issues as well. I'm pretty thorough with my troubleshooting - I can't tell you how many times I've wiped my devices over the years in an attempt to fix the problems to no avail.
When I go back and look at 13, and I have done the majority of the public betas ...
Pro Max
I had no bugs that prevented my use of my phone
I had many issues that impacted or impeded the normal everyday use of my phone
I have run into a number of annoying bugs that degraded the enjoyment of my phone
I can honestly say that iOS 13 has been far less than enjoyable.

I’d like all those features, but I don’t want to lose the Safari iCloud syncing. iOS 13 breaks syncing with High Sierra (and earlier) and my Macs cannot be updated to Mojave.
I’m also not at all trusting that it won’t slow my devices and introduce YET MORE NEW BUGS.
There's a few things that were a plus for iOS 13:
*The download option in Safari. No longer have to use Documents app.
*Shared folders in Files for other iOS users.
*External disk access for Files app. (Big feature for those who don't have a computer and want to backup their photos and delete them off their device.)
*Pull tab on scrollbar to get to the bottom faster.
The rest is a downgrade from iOS 12.

How many iterations of iOS but still lacking basic features that Android has had for nearly a decade like ability to move icons anywhere on home screen, swipe away calls, split screen multitasking, VP9 codec support, ungimped background multitasking, etc.? iOS 7 thru 13 pretty much the same thing if not worse in some areas.
At this point I find iOS 13 to be very stable. I would absolutely recommend it to everyone with at least an iPhone 7.
That’s always frustrating to try to have older versions of software play nice with newer versions of software. I’m curious what Macs you have that can’t be updated to Mohave? Are they older Mac Pros? I wonder if this might be helpful:
MP5,1: What you have to do to upgrade to Mojave (BootROM upgrade instructions thread)
Please fully read this first post, you will probably find that you have one or more problems described into the various notes below. Mojave will only install if you have upgraded your BootROM to the current release and your Mac Pro have a Metal capable GPU*. If you are trying to install Mojave...

The question is how many of that list are true useful and innovative features that would significantly improve the lot of ios, except to make it worse in many areas? Maybe one...I would like my max to do split screen multi-tasking, same as my ipad.
