@JaredBusch I am aware of that. However, Apple fought it for a long time, preferring, what I consider, to be an antiquated "one key at a time" method, for phones. Computers are a different story.

There are Swype keyboards outside the official one. Just saying. All the ones I know of work on Android. That's probably tied with the interface for the thing that I hated most about WP8. No Swype and no workaround option.

@ITcrackerjack you are correct. This is InfoWorld so not super up on programming.

Definitely the big thing is..... Why a new language.

Not sure about the 6 users on a single credit card though 😉

I like that because I can begin to break things up by AppleID, but I am concerned about the credit card requirement. The down side of this process is that it requires a credit card at all. I currently do not have any credit cards tied to any of the iTunes accounts. They are all funded as needed with prepaid cards purchased as needed. I have this set up on purpose. I want no vector of attack that can substantially affect my credit card like that.

Right now there are 6 active iOS devices in the family. But because I do not want to buy apps multiple times, all app have been purchased under 1 of 2 Apple IDs. The first is a US based ID and the other is for the Japanese iTunes store.

In the future, I would love to not be required to share out the password to everyone. This will be much better. Each user can have their own password for their own iTunes account.

Does anyone like Objective-C? So outdated and painful.

No Swipe wasn't my reason, screen size was and still is. I also prefer SwiftKey which allow swipe and claims to be the smartest keyboard yet! (I agree)

I too use SwiftKey as my primary keyboard on my Nexus 4. 80% of the time I'm swiping on it as it's much easier for me to do one handed. I'm glad that Apple is allowing 3rd party keyboards through their walled garden though. That's progress.

I do a lot of Systems Development. I do web stuffs with fee aside from my current job.

Should you really define a system as brilliant if it doesn't service the needs of the users?

Yes. If they sacked the users and replaced them with new ones then my brilliant systems would save the company a fortune!

And potentially even more if they sacked the users and didn't replace them! Now that really saves the money.
