It’s nowhere near universal. I read this article before my wake up time. I installed iOS 14 last night. The alarm worked.
I've been running 14 beta for a couple months. Never had this problem either.
Maybe because Apple users consider themselves locked in tot the ecosystem so they can't vote with their feet/wallets and walk to a competitor when they're tired of bugs so Apple feels no pressure to do right by their users. Am I right?
I only feel locked in to Apple because I despise Google so much and the 2 Android phones I previously had were complete garbage. If there was a another viable option, I would go with it in a second.
Did you try a recent clean Android like Pixel or Oneplus or was your last Android experience some bloated 2016 era Samsung?
If one despises Google, buying a Google phone would be the least optimal solution.
The extremely deep integration with google services was always annoying for me. I'm still finding it hard to untangle myself now that I've fully moved to Apple devices.
My older smartphone (few years old) had less Google-related stuff. And for one, it had its own goddamn music player. Can you imagine? I did not have to use Google Play by default, and go to the Play Store to download a fscking music player. A music player!
Google Play Music graduated Google anyway, and is going to be killed soon...
It doesn't matter so much now, but I don't want them cluttering up my phone's rom with default apps I might not like, or that I can't take with me to a new phone. An ideal Android for me would come out of the box with a dialer (preferably AOSP), clock, keyboard, launcher, AOSP Browser, and a play store stub (play store might not be ideal, but it's the path of least effort).
Yeah, of course. It is a sad state of the store that I had to go through a few music players before I found one that did not shove ads in my face (or at all), and had all the basic functions you would expect a music player to have.
My similar feelings towards Apple ("despise" would probably be too strong, but I don't really like them either, plus I'm too cheap to put up with their prices) means that I am pretty much locked in to Android, but there I at least have a choice between different manufacturers...
