Those averse to updates be aware this may force you to.

(BTW: if there’s an update to an app you have, please get it. I’m an app developer, and get a sad seeing that people are still using old versions when they could be using the latest which has fixed most/all of the problems they’re having and added lots of new features.)

Unfortunately, some updates take away desired features causing users to pull their hair out in frustration. Just making an observation, that some users prefer old versions of apps - especially if they're happy regarding the way it performs.

When something works well, often times what a developer thinks is an "upgrade" or a "feature" is often a PITA.

I recently had to "upgrade" from apple's os (sorry can't call it ios as that is already taken) 6.x to 8.x. I wish I could go back. Pretty much every change sucked, but I especially liked no longer having to confirm deleting email (because you never actually touch delete when you are just holding the phone) and having every person who ever sent me an email including in my PHONE contact list.
