If people who are sighted had this many bugs with the new OS, Apple would not have released it. I am tired of developers thinking that they can release something to the public and then, if they have time, fix the bugs that make the device much less stable for people who have a disability.

Not on the iPhone 5. See below. ne of the flagship features of Apple's new iPhone 5s is that it has at its heart the 64-bit A7 chip. But why did Apple feel the need to bump the iPhone's processor up from 32-bits in the first place? This is from http://www.zdnet.com/why-apple-went-64-bi

Well, look at it this way. If Apple, or for that matter any company, never changed it's product, no one would buy the new ones. So there would be much less money to add new features, make things accessible, etc. Yes, sometimes I think companies go way too far along the road toward shorter lives for

The question which I don't think has been raised is this. Given what some very respected sources have said about iOS8, now we combine this with using it on a phone which no one has used up to now. I'm not suggested that the bugs will go away on a new phone. On the contrary, we just don't know how e
