I hate Apple because you have to use ITunes for everything. With Android I can plug my phone into the USB port on my computer and delete/move files with ease. Also with Android you can move files to a memory card. I often find myself plugging my phone into my computer and moving files/music/photos/etc from my phone to memory card or adding music/documents from my computer to my phone. Its a snap
“BINGO!” See post #14
You know, I have an iPhone 6s and an iPad Pro, a Mac Pro, an iMac, a MacBook Air, a new MacBook, and five AppleTVs between my three houses, and I cannot recall the last time I used iTunes for anything, other than peripherally on my devices through its app stores. It had to have been four years ago when I restored my iPhone 5s after I upgraded from my iPhone 5. But even then, iTunes on a Mac is a much nicer experience than on a Windows machine.
My documents are on every one of my machines, totally transparent to me, and I don't need to worry about moving them from one to the other. So why bother? It doesn't matter if any document, music file, photo, video, etc., is on any particular device or on the iCloud, I have access to it wherever I need it, whenever I need it. I don't need to plug in and "move and copy" anything. You guys really just don't grasp the concepts, transparency, and utility of Apple's shared ecosystem at all.
I like most of the hardware, but I stopped using apple because of iTunes ..
Not really - there are 3rd Party apps to deal with file transfer to and from iPhones/iPads for both Windows and OS X (soon to be released Sierra).
You don’t even need iTunes to update iOS (unless your device is full)
