> you had software-problems with iOS

I didn't have any probs with sofrware while using iPhones. I was jailbreaking them, installing a similar firewall and had my mind at ease. I would go to Apple in a heartbeat if they stopped lying and allowed rooted/jailbroken phones.

It is nice to see that on a comment 95% on Android people still downvote me for (justifiably) trashing Apple. They got caught cheating. Then they got caught lying. Then they were found guilty. Apple fanboys are having a party downvoting. Fun fact: "HN karma" is virtual, while the $1k that they pay Apple every year is a REAL number. Keep rocking folks. I guess when someone spits on your coffee you downvote the commenter and keep going back to the same coffee place, right? (https://bgr.com/2020/07/13/iphone-batterygate-lawsuit-settle...)

> and I have Just Another Application™ running

this is absolutely normal/logical. A friend suggested the 7min workout by Johnson & Johnson. Nice app, free, has these simple 7mins workouts, also has warm-up/cool-down if you want the extra 7-8mins.. very nice. Loving it.

It doesn't need internet connection to fully operate (workouts). I don't need it to "back up my progress in their cloud". So it stays offline (forever). It takes 1min when I install that new/extra app to bolt it down and have it behave just as I want (and does not disrupt me with notifications or leak data or kill my battery).
