Ok for Sunday's debacle, a small one. I don't see how it's an improvement, and I figured it out on the fly, while working, and it only cost me a few minutes of confusion, thinking "wait, did I pick up someone else's phone?" Ok so, when I go to copy a web address, I now get a drop down with the...

INCLUDING the look of Pie. Soon as it hit the streets, I saw, and had to agree with many comments about the look, with commonalities being "cartoonish" and "if I wanted my phone to look like an iPhone I would have bought an iPhone". I can hear the "you can get themes" coming already. But...

Aah, of course you check to see if I'm talking out my butt! The old " you do know Google and Samsung aren't even..." My phone is Samsung. Google made the OS then ruined it. Oh and AT&T takes what's bad and worsens it. Check, check, and check. Leave my qualifications or lack of out of it. The...

Lame *** feature that steams my ears #3 : Pie has erased any trace of me in my phone's history. My phone does not know me anymore. My phone has forgotten everything it learned about me, it's owner and sole user. My phone was in an accident, went into a coma for a day, and woke up with 100%...

Aw, all you nice folks chiming in, thank you. Thank you all. Now, complaintoutragewtfhowcouldtheywhydidthey #2 : extra frickin clicks for EVERYTHING Example: saving contact. Call a number for the first time, call ends, click Add to contacts, then click ok to the question add Xxx-xxxx to...

I continue on. I'll not try to cover every way Pie has frustrated or infuriated me, in one post. No, I'll describe one single violation per post from here on. The outrage I'll share here is this: my battery went from 9 to 10 hours of heavy use before needing a charge, to 3 to 5 hours of energy...

Replying to my own question, calling it a thread. My Galaxy S8+ was 2+ years old and it occurred to me how strong and modern it still was. I had it dialed in the way I wanted it. My battery could still get me through most work days, and I am a heavy user. I don't recall how I was notified of the...

Punk99, if you are talking S8+, I don't know where to begin. My S8+ was 2 years old when I read about Pie, kinda casually I must admit, and fell for the hype. I have regretted updating my phone from minute one. This phone at 2 years old was going great, and I was thinking, hoping, and likely...

Exactly. One of the most annoying results of the whole Pie debacle.
