That’s ok for me - I only consider my iPhone a data capture device (at which it is excellent), not a general-purpose computer (at which it is... hobbled). I only use apps for which I can get data out of the walled garden and into a sane Linux environment. Ironically, considering the generally oppressive lockdown of the iOS environment, the prevalent use of SQLite databases means you can frequently get a good machine-readable extract. The weak link is iTunes. I know that one day they will kill it and make backups totally opaque, and that will be the end of me using iDevices.
