Updates to JW Library (iOS, Android, Windows)

[Thesauron]

Don't make me get started on all the things that I can do with my android tablet... Which Apple hardware can only dream about. Here are some of the top things. Can you access system files and modify hardware working frequencies on jailbreaked iOS?
The reason why android sometimes gets the update after Apple is because of the diversity of Android devices. An app must be compatible with thousands of different devices, screens and screen resolutions. (Android devices have around 4000 different screen sizes while Apple has less than 10).

I've never tried, so I wouldn't know. All I know is that it's trickier to roll out updates for android. For me, Android is a messy system and a bit clumsy. iOS works better and is smoother for me. Matter of taste and need, I guess. (It comes from someone who tossed his galaxy in the garbage after using it a few weeks, lol.)

Think i have to delete and reinstall songs or other publications to work properly since I changed to save to sd card after initially saving to internal memory.

I don't give away things I don't like though.

LOL - I had to think on this comment for a second - at first I thought it made you sound like a hoarder and then I realized - you wouldn't burden someone else with something that you thought was awful, wouldn't be kind.

I use to say that iOS is for people that don't want to mess with the tablet and just do the basic things... Ah and that have the funds to buy the version with the necessary memory, or else have the funds to buy a cloud service and ilimited network traffic 

On the other hand android is for the above people who don't have the money and the people that want to do more with the system... Even use it as the only pc (like me)

Wow! 2 1/2 years and 81 pages! This thread is one of the non-bearded long ones!

Mods: Would it be wise to change the name to JW Library - General Thread?

I totally agree with the thread name change.

We could end this one and start a "New JW Library Update" thread.

Maybe,  just maybe, you should reconsider an Apple, just sayin.

 

Hey, guys, you are at least three generations late to this party. 

In the 1980's it was Apple II vs Commodore 64. In the 1990's it was Apple MacIntosh vs Windows. Not sure what the issue was in the next decade, but now in the 2010"s it is Apple vs Android. 

 

Notice the trend: apple vs <fill in the blank>

Ahh, I see. I am a veteran of the "Apple vs (fill in the blank), wars. Down through the years and I can proudly say, that aside from an original "Apple1" (wish I had that now, they're worth a fortune) and an Apple 2E, I have not owned an Apple product since.  I had a computer store/repair shop in WA state and serviced Apples and Windows PC's until Apple stopped selling replacement parts and required all customers to either bring their defective machines into an Apple store, or if there wasn't one in a nearby city, ship them in for repairs. All the while denying that there computers ever needed repairs.

 

End of rant! But, I will never own an Apple product for that and MANY other reasons.

I love apples. I have a tree in my back yard, I had apple butter with breakfast and I hope to have apple sauce or an apple pie for dessert. We might go to Apple Hill and visit a few apple farms next month, do you want me to get anything for you?

If there is, then I'd say the homemade applesauce that I had for dessert was delicious...

 

as far as apple products, I have never had one and I'm not familiar with them, I have Android phones and Window PC's..

My wifes Bible study gave her a bunch of computer stuff that her dad left her. There was something,  I don't really know what it was but it was from a real early Apple product and when  Denise listed it on Ebay there were a few collectors that went a bit nuts...it brought a pretty good price.
