Apple Store app pop ups

Never had an Apple Store app pop ups. . . never. I've used iPhones for almost eight years and I have never seen an Apple Store App pop up. What are you talking about? Are you referring to Notifications??? More info needed about this, Wardaddy.

Breaks very easy

Similarly, I've had almost every model of iPhone. Never broken one. . . in almost eight years. I've been very careful of my devices but I have succeeded in dropping them several times, but never broken them.

GYRO is odd

What is "odd" about your motion sensors? More information, again.

You told me about auto-texting. True.

I can’t believe u guys are so myopic about Apple and aren’t connected to them

Not connected in any way.

I have recently had a lot of “This web page is trying to open an app outside of Facebook. Are you sure you want to open it?” dialog boxes when viewing outside links in the Facebook app. I usually tap cancel, but when I let it go through, It tries to invoke an outside app, and goes to the app store if it’s not available.

It is normal for the App Store to pop up when you tap on an ad, but this is occurring before the page has even finished loading. Best I can figure is that someone has discovered a new Javascript trick that invokes the app in Facebook’s browser. I have not seen that behavior in Safari.
