Good thing I carved time out of my day for the iOS 8.2 software update forced shameless promotion of the Apple Watch aka the Apple Update.
So far there’s no real sign of what this update has actually done for my device except add another non-erasable app to my hard drive. This app was promptly moved to it’s Apple-shaming folder to join its friends Stocks, Tips, and Compass (bye, Felicias).
Things Apple Update Didn’t Fix
My FitBit app has been lagging really badly lately and having not seen an update for the app in particular, I was hoping to find resolution with this entire system update. I’m no technological genius, but thought it could be possible there was something in my 5C software somewhere stopping my beloved apps from working at their optimum levels.
But no, it’s still taking me upwards of 3 minutes to add my side salad to my food diary, and now I have even less room for things I’ll actually use.
Newsflash Apple: you’re about five different kinds of Fitbits too late to the fitness and diet wristband device game. Supposedly there are other ‘useful’ updates, but I’m not impressed. Feel free to read more about them on Forbes.
I expect better from you, Apple. #RIPSteveJobs
Do you still tune into the Apple press conferences? I still will, but I’m hoping they’re more useful in the future.
EDIT: A few years later, I so look forward to these events again, so long as they stay relevant. I respect a company that can address their own problems and take responsibility. As long as Apple does that, we’ll be friends still.
