Apple CEO Tim Cook Should Be FIRED

Tim Cook is done and should be fired.

Apple is loosing its touch. iOS 11 is disastrous and worse release since 2007. Its full of bugs. What the hell is wrong with Apple and iOS.

Jony Ive should take over.

Plus, its a good decision that iOS will be releasing every 2 years instead of each year.

I'm not much into tech but what I do know is that my iPhone 6S operates like a$$ now. All these updates have wreaked havoc on it's speed and usability. Not to mention its battery dies in cold weather even when charged at 70%.

I can't even text right now without the buttons lagging behind severely, and every so often a random window pops up to enable dictation when I never even came close to hitting the microphone button.

This makes me never want an apple phone again. I liked them because they hardly ever glitched, ever froze, or anything. Now it is non-stop.

I have a 6s and am still on iOS 10. I thought a fresh battery was supposed to make a 6s on iOS 11 fast again?

Your battery could be part of the 6s recall. Have you looked into this? If affected, you will get a free new battery.

I read today Apple is instituting a new software development release schedule so employees aren't overwhelmed and consumers aren't beta testers. Think I read it in Bloomberg.

Unless you plan on upgrading every year, I would suggest moving on to a different platform

My Iphone X (outside of Face id which I think is far from perfection) works nearly flawlessly.

If you delete your dictionary it might help with the lagging keyboard

I've been on 11 for months now on my 5S and haven't had a single problem?

Yeah I've known about that. But I'm so busy I haven't had time to get it replaced (literally 70-80 hr weeks). You have to make 2-3 trips to the Apple store to get the job done. One to run diagnostics, the others for actually doing the replacement.

Apple did shady stuff yet still has the nerve to charge for the replacement battery.

My 6 plus battery is dying and I am having all sorts of issues running iOS 10. Going to get a new battery at an independent installer as I don't have time for Apple's BS either.

or you could go to the repair kiosk in the mall and have them put in a new one in 10 minutes for $40. Thats what I did with my sons..

Yeah, a battery for a 6 with all the tools you need is $20 on Amazon and will take you twenty minutes. Did mine and still got full trade in value on this 7 Plus, which works just fine on iOS11.

Your guys phones are broken. There’s a few in my family, all of them older than iPhone 6s, all of them operate like new.

My iPhone 7 was terrible. So many glitches after the iOS update. My company phone is an 8 and it is better, but still has many glitches.

I upgraded my personal phone from a 7 to an 8 and it ironically works much better than both my old 7 and my company 8. My company is having so many complaints with iPhone glitches they want to go back to Samsung, which would not be fun having two completely different phones.

I like iPhones, and have had one since the 4, but i've had more glitches in the last year than any of the years prior.
