I used to love using the "remind me to" command. It was a fast and convenient way to set alarms. Recently, when I attempted to use it on iOS, I was hit with an alert that "reminders have been moved to the Calendar app," where it is far less convenient to set up a reminder.
Instead of just setting the alarm with my voice and then confirming it, I have to use a click wheel to set the time, and it takes like three more steps.
This is part of a larger trend I've noticed where large tech companies use their market share to bully their users into adopting their other applications. It baffles me how any one approves these ideas. Isn't it pretty short sighted to cripple your own product, to break features that users love to promote another unloved product? Isn't that arrogant? I hope this trend passes, but my guess is that it effectively drives adoption, so to hell with everything else, right?
I used to be able to use other calendars. Now it ignores my other calendars, and insists on using google calendar.
