My opinion on Apple Products
Introduction
You might think that Apple products are great and helpful, but there are some things about Apple that might startle you. Some Apple products are used to track and find things, like your phone or your watch. But they can also be dangerous. Some people believe that Apple has been making products to get more money, I’m one of those people. But the question is, can Apple Products be helpful, or are they harmful?
There are many reasons why Apple products are good, but there are also reasons why their bad. One reason why is that they can be used to track things, that might sound good but that means people can track your car or backpack, which can be dangerous.
Another reason is that the newest phones are more fragile and easy to break. And they’re more expensive so you’re wasting more money on something that can break easily. Besides that, if you decide to make a complex or long password so that no one logs into your phone or Apple account, you have to type that password every time you want to download an app, pretty annoying if you ask me.
Have you ever heard of an Apple Airtag? Airtags are used to track things, so you don’t lose them. Many people put these Airtags in their purses or wallets so they can track them with their iPhones if they ever lose them or if they get stolen. But this might make it easier for them to get stolen. Because any iPhone can track any Airtag from far away. And so you might get a notification on your iPhone saying that “Airtag Kennedys purse is 8 meters away” or something like that if an Airtag is nearby. If you were to click on the notification, it would tell you if the Airtag is to your left or right, behind you, or anywhere else it is. So if a thief were to get this notification, they might follow it and steal it. Some people put Airtags on other people’s cars, to track them.
Luckily, Apple will notify you if you’ve been near or carrying an Airtag that is not yours. But, this can take up to 3 hours or more. If you use your iPhone to track your Airtag, it will tell you the whole route it took. But, to resolve this problem Apple is making an app for Andriod users to track Airtags, so Andriod users can also tell if an Airtag is tracking them. If your phone detects an Airtag that does not belong to you if your car, take your car to a body shop immediately to find the Airtag and take it off.
Then, take out the battery of the Airtag from the top, to turn it off. And if you report it, your might be able to find who was tracking you.
Two Researchers, Daniel and Lincoln Markham who own a Youtube channel, decided to test how easily the old iPad breaks, compared to the new one. Daniel Markham tested this out. Both iPads were not used and were straight out of the box. The newer iPad broke easier, but the older one took several attempts. Daniel use the same testing method for both of the iPads, and they discover “What’s Inside” of the iPads, which is the main focus of their Youtube channel. But they also discover something else. They expected the older iPad to break easier, but it did not. This proves that Apple has been making products break easier so that you will buy another one, it will break again, giving them more money each time you buy another one. It’s like a loop. Like this graph that I made.
Here’s another major problem, Siri. She might be helpful sometimes, but also kinda mean. Like if you ask her what Zero Divided by Zero is, then she will respond by saying this: “Image that you have zero cookies, and you split them evenly among zero friends, see? It does not make sense, and cookie monster is sad because there are no cookies, and your friends are sad because they don’t exist.” As you can clearly see, an A. I saying that your friends don’t exist is pretty rude. There are many other reasons that Apple is pretty bad, but I think ill leave you to find out the other reasons that are hiding behind Apple’s products.
