Honestly can’t find anything but iOS that is workable for my use case. Sadly

Well, apart from the fact that it’s NOT Google, (which I used for over a decade), the big selling point for a small business person is EMAIL. Apple do a good job of Email/Contacts/Calendar/File whereas Android struggles. Try accessing a third party Exchange email account on Android … yikes!

iCloud offers cheap reliable multi domain email hosting and the iOS Mail client sucks less than any other mobile email clients, at least in my experience.

I perceive Apple as, at least, a little more respectful of my privacy than Alphabet which is up there with Meta in profligate privacy abuse.

Another consideration is I can rely on Apple to keep incrementally improving devises/OS’s whereas Alphabet has become much less reliable in terms of introducing services then capriciously terminating those services. Every Android handset is a bespoke experience…

I use Linux (Debian Stable) on my desktop & BSD on my Servers.

I would love to use a mobile device running an open source OS such as Linux, it’s not viable yet.

From the top of my head, I think you do that in Mail. I can’t recall a section of the domain setup for that.

Pretty sure It must be done separately on iOS Mail vs MacOS Mail vs Web Mail.

Tedious, but a once off.

Waze has a toggle called ‘avoid difficult intersections’.

Additionally, Waze has crowd sourced real time traffic hazard reporting (every Waze user can contribute).

Because it’s extremely basic. I want to do more sophisticated file management. At the moment I kludge Apple’s Files app with home brewed Shortcuts but I find Shortcuts to be buggy. There are some small utilities available in the App Store to supplement but there are not very cost effective.

One thing I’ve taken for granted on other platforms is simple batch operations. Want to rename MORE THAN one file? I’m SOL on the Apple Files app.

I make do with (buggy) homebrew shortcuts at the moment for such things.

Thank you for your suggestion. $99.99 to do file management tasks is a bit rich for me …

Thank you very much for your suggestion. This looks like a more reasonably priced solution. After re-reading the description I note the developers say that it EXTENDS the iOS Files app, in other words I can access files already present ‘on your phone’.

‘File Browser’ looks promising. Comes in 3 versions, less featured one off purchase, full featured subscription version (Go) or full featured one off purchase (Pro).

Has been in the App Store many years, still in active development. Affordable. Will probably plump for this if nothing better is suggested.

• This is the app by Stratospherix. There are imitators in the App Store

Yes, I tested the ‘Go’ version which allows 3 day trial before levying a subscription.

Based on that I purchased the ‘Pro’ version as it meets my needs well and I hate farking subscriptions lol

• Beware there are imitators with almost identical app names and identical app descriptions.

You want the app by Stratospherix
