    Luckily for you nospam, iOS essentially does that as the stone-age monolith "*just dies*" (unlike all other common consumer operating systems which are layered and where those layers are updated essentially forever nowadays).

    Andie-boy, you remind me of a guy who hates his hometown team but can't
    stay away from the ballpark where he regularly shows up to boo them and
    yell invectives...

    Hi Wade,

    Why can't you respond to the _facts_ instead of playing childish games?

    The facts are that only Apple operating systems die on you such that you
    can no longer update the default apps to the latest version on iOS.

    That's just a fact.
    It's a fact you _hate_ perhaps.

    But the fact you hate that fact doesn't change the fact that fact is a
    fact.

    *No other common consumer operating system _just dies_ like iOS does*
    The adult question is why.

    Are you an adult Wade?
    Or a child?

    Do you have an adult point of view Wade?
    Or only that of a child?

    Given you the benefit of the doubt, here's an adult question for you Wade: *Why can't an older iOS update the default apps to the latest version*
    *like all other common consumer operating systems habitually do?*

    Sure thing guy...you've reaffirmed my point. Give it a rest ;-)

    The level of unhappiness and hatred to cause this behavior must truly be hellish. And he does this to himself *willingly*. His existence is just pathetic.

    no it doesn't. at best it's very, very slow and not the latest version either.

    15 year old pcs no longer get win10 updates, stopping around 1903 or so
    (give or take), which has been eol'ed and is no longer supported by microsoft.

    Windows 10, version 1903 will reach the end of service on December 8,
    2020.

    Server hiccups.
