That part makes no sense to me. People who don't have the technical skill to deal with upgrading are typically the people least interested in upgrading.
- lake99 10y agoNo, they are not interested enough to care about version upgrades, but they do want to keep running the latest apps and games. This was a real problem until Kitkat came along. These days, app developers seem to be aiming for a minimum of Kitkat, so users who don't upgrade don't suffer as much.
