I also hate the fact that it spews application icons everywhere. I create random passwords that are stored in Passpack so every time it asks me for a password I have to look it up. In-app purchases can also require a password but it depends on how you have set it up - it's normally to stop kids running up large bills without the parents knowing.įair enough - so give me the option to turn the password prompt off. > Not sure why you are having to enter a password so many times, usually it's only for installing/updating apps which isn't something that happens that often - the app store icon shows the number of apps with updates available. You have to work the Apple way or no way at all, but only after you have entered your password 15 times I would sum up their hardware as amazing, but there software is not unhelpful. Finally, and surprisingly, the keyboard is really laggy which is annoying at worse but not something I would expect from Apple.
It has updated itself about 3 times in the last month which doesn't bode well and all the free games on the app store are unplayable due to excessive advertising which seems less prominent on Google's Play store. Because this was my mum's creating a new account on it was a pain, and of course you can only have two accounts on one iPad. You have to continuously enter your password to do everything. But as something to use, it is as if Apple actually go out of their way to make things hard for you. It is the right size / weight etc and the materials are the highest quality. As a piece of technology, it is a wonder to behold. I have just been given an iPad by my mum who didn't want it. but not sure how much they are going to use it etc. > So looking at buying parental units a tablet my natural inclination is iPad. The ipad2 is now considerably slower than it was (ios5 to ios8 was the problem, but was necessary to run the new look UKC, IIRC.)įacetime might be a clincher if your parents want to facetime with relatives who have iPads. The Hudl1 is still as fast as it was when I bought it, and still runs all the apps I want, even though it's 'stuck' at Android 4.2.2). The fact that I can use a wider range of apps for the things I want to do (media players), and delve into the Linux guts of the Hudl if I want to, and use a real file manager and device file store, or simply connect to network file servers are all bonuses for the Android platform. I have never had to do more than install and use apps and the basic system settings on either iPad or Hudl. Modifying the basic system settings requires the same level of technical skill (very little).
Installing and using apps on iOS and Android require the same level of technical skill (very little)Īpps on both require the same level of configuration, using similar (or near identical) control interfaces.
