They reach into your pockets once they have you and screw up the product they sold you so they can pull more cash out. There are two reasons Apple is such a wealthy entity. I fully suspect that Apple will pull some shenanigans in the next few years that forces me to rewrite my app. I wrote an iPhone App which uses really only basic programming calls that could have and should have been available since IOS 4 or earlier even. There is no good reason they could not have continued operating. These apps worked fine on this phone last week. I lost 25 apps from my iPhone 6S Plus just because of the upgrade from 10.3.3 to 11. I'd still be using my iPhone 4 if it were not for Apple intentionally forcing IOS application programmers to use newer IOS versions and then making those version unavailable to older phones. This is nothing but Apples disgusting planned and forced obsolescence. Even an iPhone 3 would be capable of converting to or saving as HEIF format if it were so programmed. Īs a programmer for many decades I will testify that claiming hardware difference as the reason this feature requires an iPhone 7 or newer is a lie. My iPhone 6S Plus runnning IOS 11.0.1 does not have the option 'settings > Camera > Formats'. Again, using identical iPhone 6, 6S, & 7 phones with identical configurations regarding Apps, photos, etc. They clearly showed that the photos occupied less space using the HEIF format. That's curious since I just watched a YouTube video where they were comparing IOS 11 vs.
