I don't need a big screen either,

and surely I don't need three cameras...

You know, I don't know about anyone else, but I'm feeling frustrated with 
Apple.  I was really hoping that the new iPhone models would include an option 
for a faster iPhone 8.  Face ID sucks.  It takes significantly longer to unlock 
your phone, and is much more finicky.  I'm feeling resentful that Apple is 
trying to force me into a technology that I have tried, and do not like.  I 
don't want Face ID.  I don't need a ginormous screen.  I sure as h*** don't 
need three cameras.  I'm starting to wonder if my next phone will be a cheapy 
that makes calls and texts, and I do the rest from my Mac.  I don't want some 
giant tech company to dictate how I will use technology.  If Apple wants to 
continue to promote face recognition to the exclusion of more convenient 
technologies, that's their prerogative.  But they should have kept a touch 
option available for those of us who tried face ID and know it sucks.  And as 
for the new flick up for home?  It sucks, too.  Being able to quickly press a 
home button--be it actual or virtual--was much more efficient.  My only 
power--small though it may be--is my purchasing power.  And I am really 
wondering if my next phone will be a non-Apple product.

I know this is only tangentially related to the start-up chime, but I feel it's 
all part of the same thing.  Why not leave the chime enabled, or at least make 
it an option for those who want it?  Why should Apple be deciding this for us?  
They seem to want to make an argument that they are not big-brotherish, but 
actually, they're no better than the rest.

Hi shaun,

Yeah the line in the web page details that say:
Feature removed by apple on latest firmware, doesn't work anymore.”
Kind of says to me that this doesn’t work anymore.

Oh well, other people can keep trying.

There is no proof that this command works. I've heard from experts that it
doesn't but go ahead and try it yourself.

Hi Listers

Ok so I'm kind of getting  hacked off with the fact my new work Mac Book Pro
doesn't do the start up chimes that Apple / mac computers have done since
long before I started using Mac products.

I've got VO starting at log in but when for some reason I need to force
restart for some unknown reason, if I use the power button to turn off / on
the machine I never know when it's restarting until it starts talking to
me,
If I'm lucky enough for vo to still be talking.I know this effects us all,
But have we ever or has anyone ever contacted Apple accessibility to explain
that this chime at start up would be really useful to us the sight impaired
to know when / if our machines are starting up
Or do in my case I just keep thinking the batteries dead and put it on mains
power when I don't need to.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Regards

Slightly P'd off mac book pro user.
