Ok I got tired of them asking me to upgrade to 10.0 so I did it.  What a sucker I am.  It sucks on the texting page.  The space bar wasn't big enough for me in the first place.  Now they put this swirl thing in the bottom right hand corner and it made the space bar even smaller.  Not I hit the return key or the M even more due to the placement of that swirl.  Can I get rid of the swirl?????  OR am I going to have to figure out how to go back to 9.0 or wherever I was at before this 10.0 thing?

My wife and I both have Iphone 5s.  She has mentioned changing but we have not had many issues with these.  So obviously like droids better.  Any big reasons?  Seriously I would like to know.  Maybe we will change too.

Better pic quality, speed, bigger screen, like G said, downloads are faster, more memory.

Plus, when my iphone would want to "sync" with my computer, it would wipe out 1/2 my files.

lovemy droid. but the biggest thing of changing fones is its hard to break old habits. i tried going to a i phone. but could shake the droid habits, i found it it much easier to do things on the droid. samsung 7 hqsnt blown up yet.

If you press the swirl it will go away but if you turn your phone longways when typing a text you will no longer be able to type , it turns it into a blank touch screen that you can use your finger to write in cursive,which I think is stupid. But if you hold you phone unright when texting then press the swirl it will go away and not affect the keyboard
if you kick me when I'm down you better pray I don't get up.

I Phones were made for duffers like us. I have a few friends that switched and all they do is complain. Hard to find a 12 year old to help you out at the American Legion. I've thought about switching too but never have. I can help most people with I Phones (just did the new version myself so not good at that yet) but I'm really lost on Droids. I will say though that most of my friends that have Droids are the cheap ones that take the $60 ones because they are free with the package.

Ya I hear ya Hawg.  After a few years with the Iphone I am comfortable with it.  I like to have mine horizontal when I text so the keyboard is bigger so I can hit the letters easier.

I also have an iPad that I use that is easy enough.  I'm not going to download the 10 update just yet.   I don't find it amy more difficult then a Droid.

I have no idea.   I always wait a few weeks to a month after it pops up to download.

But if you wait you have to keep deleting those stupid notices that pop up every time you use your phone. If I ever change it will be to say goodbye to Apple more than than the IPhone. I don't think you can go back LPS, but not sure. There's a guy on Walleye Central that is real good at Apple products, his name is Apple Guy.

I googled it and you can revert back but there are a few hoops to jump through.  I know I would screw something up doing that so I think I will just suck it up and move my fingers over further to the space bar.  Maybe there will be an update someday deleting that stupid swirl drawing thing...  lol
