They’ve practically given up on Windows, too, considering it stays put while macOS continues year by year to improve by adding useful features and ecosystem integration.
How did this shitshow get past hundreds of developersc, testers, and product managers?
With Windows you have Phone Link which allows access to messages and notifications, but it is a far cry from Apple Continuity. For things like access to the phone camera you still need 3rd party software.
Also in my experience the integration is not always as smooth as advertised (and hard to troubleshoot when it’s not)
They just improved the performance too.
But if you want to take this particular example, it’s very simple to just download Acrobat Reader or some alternative.
My point is Windows has a known malware problem, editing PDFs is a common need these days, and Microsoft has the resources to provide a built in non malware PDF editor.
Yet they do not bother to fulfill a simple need for their customers.
Windows has a built-in PDF reader with basic editing functionality in the form of Microsoft Edge actually (although I've never used it for that purpose to be honest).
As for a non-malware PDF editor, I'm not sure if Preview.app is such a great example in light of the recent image processing zero-days ;)
