![]() ![]() ![]() Good job not actually addressing the point I made. they don't make software updates for old phones, and force developers to make their apps only work on newer phones, in order to force their customers to buy new phones even though their old one worked fine. Anecdotally I guess you could say that Apple phones "last longer" (which isn't true tbh) but I think it's a lot more likely to do with how deeply Apple build planned obsolesence into their phones, ie. Worldwide 1 in 10 iOS users have a version older than iOS 8 ( source), whereas only around 1 in 100 use Android 5 ( source) which was released around the same time. Would say though that the blame more likely lands at Apple's door than Duolingo's. The idea that because you're using a device that's 10 years old it must be useless is not only obviously not true, but intentionally excludes the huge percentage of the world population that isn't rich enough to 1) get first dibs on latest tech and 2) be well-served by cheap or free education. ![]() Understand there's a bottom line for a profit-driven company like duolingo but it's shite that it's not a priority for a language learning app to support a really broad range of devices. ![]()
