I find that to be a good option. Unfortunately, given my current needs, the Apple Watch is the best device to meet them, so I'm stuck with the iPhone. And yes, I've researched the Galaxy Watch, too, but app integration and health measurements are considered lackluster compared to the AW.
that's always the problem with android based stuff. good software is the one thing they can't do.
I am not sure what you mean by they can't do good software.
It’s not impossible, it’s just a chore level difficulty. Either buy it in Apple Music or just pop the audio file into garage band and export as ringtone. iOS is way better than Android in every aspect except sideloading and expensive development and restrictions on what apps can do, but it’s already enough for your needs.
Wut?
You’ve been able to download files since like iOS 5. You’re just being obtuse at this point.
dude... it's 2023. Why are you fighting for a mega corporation that cares nothing for you. Just let people use what they want to use. If they are happy with their color box, then leave them being happy with their color box.
It's a tool, nothing more.
Why would I email it to myself if I have already downloaded it?
And what world do you live in where downloading a PDF and sending it via email is something the iPhone can’t do? Are you living in 2007?
Just long/3D touch the link and click save link as or if you can’t just take a screenshot and click full page; it’ll save as PDF. Better yet just press share on the page and either share it wherever you share or save to files if it’s like a PDF. If you wanna transfer local-only files then just host an Apache server on your computer or send it over your favorite instant messaging service.
in sheer things you can do, android is clearly superior. but there are some things that apple products will do best, like integrating everything so well.
i didn't refer to any specific feature, but stuff like airdrop, the airtag system, sharing files between apple devices.
never actually used any apple product besides the 2nd gen ipod touch, but i've been told they're pretty rad.
also i'm never gonna buy any of that overpriced, planned obsolescence bullshit. not for 800+€
