Adding a CC to your wallet is optional, Android offers similar card storage too so I don’t really see your point. It stays on device fully encrypted anyway.
No, that’s not optional on iPhone, you can’t even use their app store even for ‘free’ apps unless you enable their app store with a CC number.
Unless something seriously changed since 2017 when I gave up on Apple…
Didn’t even consider the App Store, I was busy thinking about the wallet. You’re right.
Actually not true. I just set up a device for a friend the other day and absolutely skipped adding any payment info and was able to download apps. Why are you spreading so much misinformation?
I did say ‘unless something has changed in recent years’
Back when I was rebuilding and repairing iPhone 5/6 series and iPad 2/3 series this was most certainly true. Couldn’t use the app store for anything, not even free apps, without first entering in a CC number.
Made absolutely no sense to me why it was that way, but it was.
So your anecdote is more reliable than the analysis of the biggest repair site on the internet? (Ugh, I hate internet debates sometimes.)
I have never had a problem getting my iPhone fixed. But with 3 years max software support on Android, that’s not only planned obsolescence, it’s guaranteed obsolescence. Disposability is what your original comment was about.
Think you meant to reply one comment up the chain
