5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Also annoying is this ‘backup’ nonsense. Let me backup when I want to backup, and for goodness sakes please don’t take several hours to do it, as is the case now! It’s mind bogglingly annoying. I also read a fantastic article about the complete inadequacies of the iPhone calendar. It’s sooo worth reading, and a reminder to all Apple zealots that not everything Apple “just works”. Indeed, the iPhone calendar is quite possibly up there with one of the worst things Apple has ever created. Part of the problem is the lack of a system-wide search. My N95 has it and it’s great. Apple has only just put in a contact search in iPhone OS 2.0. We’re starting to get into “lame” territory here, Apple. A system wide search would solve the problem of being to search for calendar appointments, among other things. Like searching through your notes. Honestly, Apple, can you please listen to your screaming customers and fix the inadequacies? We don’t want to wait until iPhone 2009 or iPhone 3.0 to get simple things fixed. Like ye olde copy and paste, notes sync, proper Bluetooth, etc etc etc. And a system wide search. And an app update that doesn’t crash and proudly hand you a shiny new iBrick. And a real calendar app. And a host of other niggles, slowdowns, sluggish behaviour, call crashes, Safari that won’t rotate screens anymore, other missing everyday features and more. The list of annoyances in 2.0 is amazing! Keep this up, Apple, and you’ll be doing the Macarena with Motorola. The rumours are out that you’re testing 2.0.1. Please don’t release it unless it fixes most, if not all, of the bugs! But at the same time, can we hurry it up please? Continued on page 3. |
