Honestly using an iWatch on Android is the absolute least of my concerns, so I hope this argument is a piece of the overall “walled garden” and not a singular issue they are dedicating resources to solving.
Oh that’s rich. So what they’re saying is somehow every other smartwatch company can engineer not only a way to solve the technical limitations, but a full smartwatch in under three years, while one of the most powerful tech companies somehow thought “naah, connecting to android is a lot more difficult than a self driving car or a VR headset with an integrated computer and video passthrough, we better shelve that idea”.
Yeah ok Apple.
we’d* better shelve that idea
There’s a star after you’re “we’d”
“trying”
Nice try, Apple.
if google can bring android wear to ios then apple could bring apple watch to android easily
Sure jan
They tried thinking about it and decided nah.
To be fair, Apple engineers are pretty stupid.
They really aren’t. As much as I hate Apple, their engineers are skilled people kneecapped by corporate decisions.
Not the Software Engineers though.
Apple is pretty low-Paying for industry standards which means that a lot of people work there for their Resume and then move on
Or at least that was the case a few years ago.
We still shouldn’t attack the software engineers for what is a management problem.
Uh, is that the response to Google saying Apple is blocking their Google “AirTags” a few days ago?
Lol no they didn’t
Oh I’m sure they “tried” in a very circuitous, unfavorable, nobody-would-ever-have-agreed-to-this way.
Kind of like saying “can I download my indie game to your computer and also kick you in your genitals with a spiky boot?”
Before anyone tries pointing out that’s not exactly how it would have happened, I suggest you look up “hyperbole”
