iOS 18 Speculation Thread

FishyFish said:
ok I wrote a letter to Apple and sent it to every email address I could find

Dear Tim Cook, Phil Schiller, Craig Federighi, Eddy Cue, Greg Joswiak, Deirdre O’Brien, and the Apple Board of Directors,

I am writing to express my deep dis-satisfaction and frustraion with the continued delay of the iOS 18.2 Release Candidate. It is now at least a week past its expected release date, and there has been no clear comunication regarding the reasons for this delay or any indication of when the update will finally be made available. This lack of transparency and punctuality is highly concerning for users like myself, who depend on timely updates to ensure the optimal performance and security of our devices.

As an Apple user, I have always valued the company’s reputation for delivering high-quality software and hardware experiences. I’ve spent a significant amount of money purchasing your devices, devices that are advertised as being the best in terms of quality, security, and user experience. However, this delay is testing my loyalty.

May of us who have invested in Apple products at a premium price feel as though we are being ignored. Its frustrating to see that despite paying top dollar for hardware that promises a seamless experience, we’re now left waiting for an update that was promised far earlier.

There are a growing sense that Apple is failing to prioritize its users in the way it once did. Many loyal users, like myself, are to consider switching to rival platforms that are more reliable and communicative about updates. Like Android and Windows and others.

If this issue is not addressed imediately, many users will begin to look elsewhere for their smartphone and tech needs. Apple has long been a trusted brand, but this delay raises serious questions about its commitment to maintaining the quality and reliability that so many of us have come to expect. I personally feel betrayed, especially after spending what I did for the hardware.

I urge you to take immediate action to resolve this issue and provide a clear update on when iOS 18.2 will be released. Apple must work to regain the trust of its users and show that our time, expectations, and loyalty are valued.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
