   Can you point to this propaganda Apple is publishing?

   No evidence you have an iOS device.

   This is similar to the task I compared for macOS. Would love to see your   
   Android video showing how you do it. I will then show how I do a similar task   
   on iOS. Look forward to your video.

   Again, show a video and I will, too. We can both learn.

   You do not like security features. OK.

   Sure. Show how you do it in a video and I will show how on iOS.

   That is not in the slightest true. I thought you said you use iOS.

   Apparently you cannot make a simple video. :)

   Show the videos. But off you run. 100% predictable.

   It's impossible for someone who is at war with themselves to be at peace with
