Thank you Apple for this update. You saved me so much money because I won’t buy another Apple product.

I find it unacceptable that people pay that kind of money for iPhones and iPads etc and have to deal with bugs, bubbles, readability issues with a theme that looks like a terrible 2011 android skin. And that’s a trillion dollar company.

Staying on 18, till iPhone dies.

I'm also pushing the upgrade of my Xs year after year now. It runs fine on iOS 18, and it still gets security updates (the newer models didn't get 18.7).

After more than a decade, I'm seriously considering to switch back to Android again. Also because Apple doesn't want to release some features in the EU, they prefer picking a fight with the regulators. Fine with me, but they have to be okay with us not buying Apple products anymore.

Same. iOS 26 and Tahoe completely rule out me purchasing. I cannot believe this shipped.
