Question: how do YOU guys use your PC Suite? And what do you wish
would be improved or extended on the overall experience?
I've often found PC Suites more hassle than they're worth - especially
for transferring files, for which I simply Bluetooth my files across
after pairing my device with my laptop. On both Mac and Windows many
of my devices show up as drives regardless.
Typically, I do however still have the following use-cases for PC
Suites:
- upgrade of device firmware and general software updates (Apple does
this very well with iTunes, Nokia - not so good)
- using the device as a modem for my laptop on the go
- backing up my messages, contacts, etc (just wish it synced easily
with my laptop mail, contacts, etc)
My biggest improvements would be:
- fewer choices (images, pictures, music, documents, etc are all files
- do we need separate app to transfer each)?
- less engineer speak (too many messages that mean nothing and only
confuse users)
- avoid having too many pop-up windows for all of the various tasks,
it's quite confusing and often you can't perform more than one task at
a time.
- make it work with what I already use (Outlook, Windows Mail,
Mail.app, etc), don't make me learn and manage more apps/data
