> There was a time when I heard that there were great iOS only apps but I don't know of any in 2022. Scenic, a motorcycle navigation app [0]. They've been working on an Android version for a while now, but as far as I'm aware it's still not done. I'm more or less in the market for a new phone, since my iPhone 7 is getting long in the tooth. I've looked at Android, but I'm afraid they won't be supported for as long as my iPhone (which is more than 5 yo and running the latest iOS – don't know if the upcoming release next week supports it, though). I also don't know what the durability / water resistance situation is on non-flagship devices [2]: it must be able to work for hours on end in the rain or sun. I don't use my phone much, basically only for GPS and... calling people (on the phone). So, I'd hate to be forced to upgrade a perfectly good phone just because it hasn't seen in update in three years [1]. --- [0] https://scenic.app/ https://scenic.app/ Its main shtick is being able to offer "curvy" navigation, meaning not the quickest / fastest way between points A and B. [1] I know about alternative ROMs, I used to run one, but I'm past that. I want an appliance-like phone, and for that, the iPhone is best in my eyes. [2] I know flagship devices have got this down, I used to own a Galaxy S5 which was great. But at that point, it's going to be as expensive as an iPhone, so I might as well get that. iOS gets out of my way like I could only dream about while on Android.
