Things also change a lot over the years. I think if you never update an app or any piece of software, there's never a need to upgrade your phone. Until the hardware fails.
100+ years ago, people were content to getting around on horses and buggies. And occasionally trains.
15 years ago, we were all content just having cell phones that could make phone calls and send text messages.
I'm not saying we go back to those days. Even though some still use basic flip phones.
My father in law still uses one. He even tried using my mother in law's iPhone when she upgraded to a newer one. He ended up going back cause he didn't need a smartphone.
But going back to my original point, apps get bigger and require more processing power to run them. App developers add more features into apps that require more power and resources on your phone to run them.
Ever hear the rumor that phones run the os or firmware version that it originally shipped with better? Or people that state that their phone has slowed down or running worse after updating it? There probably is a lot of truth and credibility to this.
So, the moral of all this is, don't ever update any piece of software on your device.
Just kidding.
