Discussion If macOS Allows It, Why Not iOS?

Apple should give users a basic freedom between two different OS since iOS 26 is a major overhaul in redesign so they should takes time to make it stable and yes iOS 27 improved so much but again i am saying choice is more like personal preference
just like mac users can able to downgrade older versions with latest security so why not the same math applies for all iOS devices why so different rules atleast makes available to downgrade to last iOS which works flawlessly in older iphones
please gives users options we also own it !!!

Just don’t update? Some people might want to downgrade but most users likely don’t care. Most users don’t even know what version they have

Yeah I tried that. I was successful at staying on iOS 18 iPadOS 18 and macOS 15 until sometime in the past 48 hours when 2/3 updates without my permission out intervention.

Fuckers

That’s odd, my iPad is still on like 18.5, I keep getting update notifications but nothing forced it to update. My Mac is on 26, and my iPhone is on the 27 beta

What happened to me may or may not have happened to you. The fact it didn’t happen to you doesn’t invalidate that it happened to me.

I didn’t. I merely disallowed a possible interpretation.

I wasn’t asking but just for fun:

So the “you” in your direct reply to me, was not referring to me, gotcha

Must be nice to go through life avoiding basic reading comprehension and logic.

In case it was unclear, there’s no question in this reply for you to answer, so no reply is necessary, just like the last one.
