Apple has had their fingers in this LONG before this new slowing down issue. Which btw should prove to everyone just how much control they have over your phone.
I had one of the very first iphones. The 'minute' they came out with the next iPhone version all my apps quite working saying I HAD to buy the new phone. Try and download new apps? Same thing. You have to upgrade to new version phone to download new apps. Cancelled that phone and have never looked back. What a scam that was never exposed.
That's why so many apps are for free. Apple pays them and controls them. They come out with new phone and apps are instructed to stop working properly until you buy one of their new phones. And all your apps eat your data 24 7's. Now who do you think is benefiting from that? Cause now you have to keep increasing your data plan.
I still can't wrap my head around anyone buying each and every new iphone as they come out for hundreds of dollars. Can't believe that Apple has brainwashed so many people. :(
You must have different apps than me. I've made many os upgrades to my iPhone 5 and never had an app stop working, although I sometimes have had to download a new, free version of the app. Never needed a new phone to run an old app. As to data, almost all apps can have the data connection set to continuous OR only when using the app.
