Is there a specific "senior citizen" version of iPhone you have to request? Or is it as simple as toggling and password-protecting a "senior citizen/parental" mode somewhere in the settings? Or maybe the parental mode comes enabled by default, with restrictions chosen by Apple, and you can disable it by entering a password that came with your phone, or perhaps a password you have to separately request from Apple, once you've proven ownership of your phone (easiest at time of purchase)?

Or is it none of those things, and Apple fights hard against users having any control whatsoever over their devices?

Did Apple know better which apps their users in Hong Kong should be allowed to run? https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/10/apple-removes-police-trackin...

What does it tell you about Apple, when it insists on remaining the absolute arbiter of what their users may run, even after it was forced to use that power to betray its users to authoritarian governments? That these are the kind of practices, the kind of company, that you should be promoting?
