iPhone Removal of the "Arcade" icon

[mscrimthunder]

I'm not a gamer and when I saw that Apple monkeyed around and buried the "Updates" icon in the App Store on different page I was pissed. For those of us non-gamers 45+ in years, and not suffering from Peter Pan syndrome, how do I undo this iOS 13.1.2 nuisance?

You can long/force press on the App Store to get quick option to “Updates”

or downgrade to iOS 12

Insulting gamers is a great way to ask for assistance.

Well, perhaps if you are 45+ you can learn to deal with life’s little nuisances.

I am well past 45 and just took a couple of seconds to learn the new system. Heck, I’ve even downloaded COD Mobile and am having a ball!

But this is the internet and everyone has to be a douche bag on their first post. Thems the rules!

Apple Arcade in App Store

Is it possibile to turn it off and remove its tab from the App Store app in iOS? In Books it’s possible to remove the Book Store section through the Allowed Apps settings.. Thank You

yeah bro!!! you said it! games are for... kids and... mentally ill people(????)

 

[Fireproof!]

Really? Moving how to get to updates made you pissed? Wow.

I don’t think it’s the gamers that have issues...

You could have learnt the new way to do it - which really isn't difficult - in the time it took you to type your post.

I'm a gamer who is nearly sixty (currently playing Borderlands 3 and looking forward to Ghost Recon: Breakpoint) and I can cope with this "nuisance".

Technically, its still the same number of actions to update:

iOS 12
Open app store > Click updates > Swipe to refresh

iOS 13
Open app store > Click profile icon > Swipe to refresh

But yeah, hate the seperate icon. Im a gamer, but its mobile games. I use my phone for Diamond diaries saga.

You must’ve been a joy to retrain when your company switched from Word Perfect 5.1 DOS to MS Word for Windows, Mr. serious non-gamer person.

I’m sure it’s temporary while they advertise their new service. Either wait for iOS 14 or downgrade to 12. It’s not that big of a deal you could I dunno just ignore it.

Based on the way you worded your complaint, I am glad you have to deal with it.

I thought 45+ year olds know how to ask questions like an adult.

Best Regards,

I think it helps to keep in mind that Apple doesn’t develop iOS in order to meet our every need. Apple develops iOS in order to make money from hardware sales.
