iOS 18 may be the end of the line for my iPhone 13. We will see what 27 holds. Maybe Ternus will crack the whip on the software teams to do better

That is where I am. iOS 18 / iPadOS 18 on devices, Sequoia on Studio. Not budging. Maybe Ternus will rescind the LG nonsense since AVP is defunct now, maybe not. If 28 looks good, I could go to it. Wait and see for me.
 
Can’t wait for all the new bugs. Maybe they’ll sell a subscription plan for a special iOS build with all the bug fixes.

One can always hope. An "ESR" release chain. Bugfixes, and, more bugfixes. This year's features-- next year. I'd pay a few bucks more for that.
 
hide with face ID is a good start. but if we could get a more fully featured separate partition, that would be appreciated. via an entirely separate space (like aosp multiuser) or within the default user space (like private space) or both options, while still retaining hide with faceID as well.
 
I used to be the guy who bought every new iPhone and have not liked any new phone since the move away from chrome so I still have my iPhone 12 Pro Max. And it still works great!! I never thought I’d run this phone to the end of the line.

I’m either holding off for the 20th Anniversary iPhone or getting the iPhone Air 2 next year.
 
I don't think users will get the bug improvements until at lest after Cook is gone. Cook just won't spend the money that is required to keep a software portfolio like Apple's up to date.

Cook never understood that when you create a new App it takes (at least in Apple's bureaucracy) at least 5 FTEs to keep it relevant, with all of the meetings and other waste. Plus a few more for improvements.

Now Apple's independent developers could do it for a lot less, but Apple has no respect for them. In fact, I think Cook sees them as stealing Apple's potential income.
