To all,
Rich, there is no need for you to call me by my name when you know I am already aware of. Just speak to the whole group! Voice memos is nothing to me, so I say what was said. That does not mean I am against it; it is just that it is simply nothing. That one I would like to kick for good. No use. That is all. I never have an answering machine on here. Most of the calls come from Rich’s best number one friends telemarketers. So I keep them stuck. I save money. Too bad to them! Plus, I really never make phone calls as used to anymore, just few.

You are expressing your opinion. It is the opinion of one person. It is not universal. What you consider to be important apps or unimportant apps is not shared among everyone. I agree with you on things like Stocks and Voice Memos, but I know others who would not agree with that. So, as the expression goes, Apple can please some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time. Bugs are going to be in software. It’s a reality of any product based on the fact that so many different development teams do so much different work as updates are made available. I don’t particularly feel we need yearly updates to operating systems, but apparently, the majority of those who buy the products do appreciate it. There are certainly outstanding bugs in iOS that have lingered for far too long, but name a software product in which one cannot make an equally valid statement. Android, Windows, etc … they all have them. Take Care John D.

I did not say ALL should be "non-native" but those apps that are absolutely useless, such as voice memos, stocks, should never be native but non-native. That is where I stand for. It is simply that a lot of the apps are simply useless and should never have been native in the first place. They missed the point. I was one of the ones who spoke out loudly at Apple. They cannot expect everyone to have their products. When they said it, I simply ignored and made a blunt statement to them making them realize they are just wasting such efforts making them native. That cannot be so. Meantime, I see still bugs there. Apple needs to do more than just release new versions of the iOS. They need to learn to do more thorough diagnoses to ensure the apps work correctly before releasing them. Think about it.

There are still some which are essentials to the operation of the phone which can't be deleted and that of course makes sense. These are apps like the App Store, Settings and so on.

As for that app Home, it is totally useless to me, and I have no need for it. So I would have kicked that goofy (smile) app out for good. The only thing I abhor about Apple is that they tend to put many apps on all products that are often useless and cannot be deleted completely due to them being native apps. That really sucks! Yes, these folks at Apple Inc. are missing something in a large way. Not just Apple but other companies do the same. I just do not understand how these folks act like this. they like to show off by saying there are apps you need but the opposite is true. It is just a real goof on them!

These are things like connected thermostats, lights like the Philipps Hue, door locks, automated sprinkler control systems, cameras, devices to open and close curtains or blinds and so on. If you have any such devices and they support Apple's Home Kit standard they will appear in the Home app. I don't have a braille display, but maybe you know what commands to use if I tell you how I delete apps and if you have ever moved apps you are half way there. First, if I swipe up or down on any app on any home screen, Voiceover says "Arrange Apps". At that point you can swipe up or down again with one finger and this will go back and forth between "Activate Item" or "Move" followed by the name of the app. If you then double tap on "Activate Item" you will be asked if you want to delete the app and you can confirm and it will be deleted.
