What a strange thing to label someone who is regularly called a Nazi by the libs on here lol

Why do you think Apple should let Fortnite back on the App Store?

You guys need to find a new name to call people.

Epic were the bad guys in this scenario. Why are you licking the boot of epic?

You’re missing that you don’t make the OS, and the OS maker doesn’t have to make a way for you to be able to install whatever you want. Sony doesn’t let you install Switch games on your PS5, do they? Should they be forced to?

GaMeRs aren’t going to do shit to Apple lol. Fortnite hasn’t been on iPhones for years and Apple hasn’t been hurt one bit.

If an app that is being used to coordinate a rebellion takes off the US government can……

lol

That’s how stuff works. Different people have different experiences. I had to get my pixel 3 replaced twice under warranty for a known screen issue. The pixel 7a, believe it is, is currently in the middle of a mass battery failure issue that really should end in a recall, where they’re refunding people often more than they even paid for the phone when it happens. Every flagship pixel up until the 5 had major hardware issues.

iPhones have, historically, been the best phones you could get in terms of being built to last, which is also why Apple have such long software support for them.

Not necessarily. iPhones used to be more than pretty much every Android flagship phone.

iOS is also trash vaporware

I don’t think you understand what that word means.

Fortnite hasn’t been on iOS for like 5 years already at this point, anyone who was going to change ecosystem because of Fortnite is long gone.

There are so many platforms that Fortnite is on that it not being on iOS isn’t an actual issue.

their iPhone is preventing them from playing the game

Epic are the ones preventing Fortnite from being available on iPhones. They have no one to blame but themselves for the way they planned to intentionally break the App Store rules and had a lawsuit ready to go when it was rightly removed from the store.

They fucked around and found out.

Not true. As long as you keep updating your browsers etc you’re going to be generally ok.

SHOW ME SOME EVIDENCE THAT IT HAD AUTOSAVE TO YOUR LOCAL DEVICE.

Again - it has autorecover which essentially does the same thing to a degree, but no I have not been able to find a single source saying it ever had autosave to local. I don’t remember any other version having it.

Your point was that they REMOVED AUTOSAVE TO YOUR LOCAL STORAGE, not that they never had it. Will you admit that you were wrong about that?

Gee, I wonder why?

Apple are under no obligation to accept Fortnite back on to their store. I highly doubt they will, and if someone did what epic did to apple to my company, hell would freeze over before I let anything of theirs back on my store.

Believe it or not, after 20 years of people buying things on iPhone apps, people will assume it’s safe and easily refundable when things go wrong, only to find out that because they paid for something through a dodgy payment gateway in an app on the App Store their credit card details have been stolen.

This will happen. There are thousands of online stores that insecurely handle credit card details. It might only be 0.5% of people, but it will happen and anyone saying it won’t has clearly not paid attention to the cybersecurity world.

Of course they want devs to use their payment method. That’s where they make money. Like it or not though, their payment gateway is secure.

Do you not see the irony in that?

You just spent pages attacking Microsoft for allegedly removing something that never existed. Maybe it’s time for you to re-evaluate.

By your lack of sources backing up your claims that they previously had auto-save to your local device, and your out-of-nowhere shift to personal attacks, I think it’s safe to assume that you realised you remembered incorrectly.

That’s fine from a security point of view, even if a bit obnoxious.

People will get their payment details stolen due to the changes around payments. That’s 100% guaranteed. Apple are just pointing out that it’s not their problem.

And why does no one want to give financing to the company?

Yeah doesn’t really make much sense if their new tech is as grounbreaking etc as they say. Even oil companies would try and buy them if it was.

I have had a paid Office subscription and used OneDrive since it was SkyDrive, so I honestly couldn’t tell you from personal experience - which is why I’m using google and also asking any and all AIs I have access to. I have found zero evidence of AutoSave being added and working with local save files. AutoRecover yes, AutoSave no.

I’m happy to be proven wrong though, so feel free to provide some links showing that it did.

Last point: anyone who doesn’t think the Microsoft board of directors should be guillotined should also be guillotined.

Such a badarse you are. I’m quivering in fear.

Also I am a paying customer, you shill. I just want my file saved LOCALLY, as it has been for decades, not on OneDrive.

They haven’t removed saving your files locally though.

It was removed from the MacOS version, yes. I’ve been using Microsoft Word since 2004.

I haven’t seen any evidence of it ever working outside of OneDrive. I’ve been using Word since it came out.

Yes, they added a feature for paying customers. That’s not “bizarre and shitty”. That’s pretty much the industry standard. Paying users get more and better features.

Microsoft is a despicable company whose board of directors should be guillotined.

Ok well you’re clearly not to be taken seriously on issues like this.

Ok so it’s on iOS, but has it ever been on the desktop versions and then removed?

You can also apparenlty change auto-recover to be every 1 minute. Seems like Auto-Save has never been offered outside of OneDrive on desktop.

If what I’m reading in Microsofts support forums are correct, there was never an auto-save-to-local function in Word though. There was the auto-recover, but that’s not the same and I believe still exists.

Auto-save seems to have been added as a onedrive-only feature, which is fair enough.
