The problem of using customer satisfaction as a metric is that the
customer's self bias has already greatly affected the measurement.
Customer satisfaction for an iPhone is based on low-functionality metrics.
For example, if you want to be able to do things that iOS can't do, such as choose alternative app store skins and filters, change the app launcher,
put icons anywhere including in multiple places, change the grid pattern, change the default sms/mms messenger, graphically debug wi-fi signal strength, add system-wide ad-blocking firewalls, spoof gps location, automatically record calls, graphically download & rip video sans ads, use privacy based web browsers such as the Guardian TOR browser or Ungoogled Chromium, extract the installer off the phone and use the results on any phone (not just phones which are set up for any given account), downloads
and install apps and use mail/calendars/reminders/etc without having to log into any account whatsoever, and so on (all of which Android easily does).
Given the iPhone can't do any of those important things, it's just a toy.
For a person who wants to use a phone as something other than just a toy, they will never be satisfied with the lack of functionality that is iOS.
However... if all the person wants to do is have green and blue bubbles,
and to show off that they bought the RED or YELLOW iPhone, then the fact
iOS is a toy operating system won't adversely affect satisfaction levels.
Hell, we've seen time and again the iKooks claim they're satisfied with the iPhone simply because Apple makes something like 50% profit on them.
They think Apple's profits equate to their satisfaction, when, in fact, the more technically illiterate a customer is - the more profits Apple makes.
Which brings me to the final point of technical literacy metrics.
a. Apple customers are virtually almost all technically illiterate,
(The "it just works" promise is _why_ they're Apple customers!)
b. A good portion of Android customers are technically knowledgeable.
(That's _why_ they're Android customers after all!)
Certainly none of the iKooks on this newsgroup have any technical literacy (e.g., nospam doesn't know the difference between a megabit & a decibel!) (e,.g., Alan Baker doesn't know the nntp headers can easily be spoofed!) (e.g., Jolly Roger is completely ignorant of Apple's full-hotfix policy!) (e.g., Alan Browne is even more ignorant of the walled garden's existence!) etc.
Apple customers ===> technically illiterate
If they were technically literate, they wouldn't put up with the thousands upon thousands (upon thousands) of things iOS can't do that Android does.

*The iPhone customer is satisfied because they're technically ignorant*
Every time you uneducated iKooks gloat that you think you've found me, I
have to laugh at how incredibly stupid you are as if it takes you more than
a second to figure out my posts, you're a moron - which is what you are.
You ignorant iKooks literally gloat that you figured out that 1 + 1 = 2
It's especially obvious how stupid you iKooks are when you claim everyone
who posts here is me - which I think is hilarious since it proves you are stupid.
Meanwhile, my point about customer satisfaction is valid that the Apple consumer is ignorant - otherwise the "it just works" ads wouldn't work.
The Apple customer is so technically incompetent, most don't even realize that the iPhone can't do thousands (upon thousands!) of things Android (and every other operating system) easily does.
Hence they go together...
a. The iPhone customer is almost completely technically ignorant,
b. Hence, they're quite happy with the iPhone (doing what they're told),
c. Even as the iOS operating system is clearly a dysfunctional toy OS.
iPhone customer ===> technically ignorant
An example is nospam still doesn't know the difference between a decibel
and a megabit, Alan Baker doesn't know you can spoof headers, Jolly Roger still thinks iOS 15 is fully supported & Alan Browne has never heard of the walled garden.
iKook ===> technically ignorant

Otherwise, Apple wouldn't have promoted the "it just works" campaign.
Meanwhile, iOS does NOT work for thousands (upon thousands!) of very useful functional things that _every_ other consumer OS easily does.

There are two kinds of people on this newsgroup... adults... and children.
*If all you do is use the iPhone as a toy... you _should_ be satisfied*
You'll only be dissatisfied when you try to do graphical wi-fi debugging.
Or when you try to orient the app icons the way you want them to be.
Or if you want to spoof your GPS location or run a system-wide firewall.
Or if you want to load a more private web browser like Ungoogled Chromium.
Or, when you try to use a graphical interface to download YouTube videos without ads and being able to play and convert to any desired format.
Or if/when you want to or need to automatically record your phone calls.
Or if you want privacy/anonymity that only the Guardian Tor browser has.
If you don't care that there's no chance of privacy on an iPhone when
you're logged into the mothership 24/7/365, then you'll be happy with it.
If you don't care that Apple inserts a unique-to-you tracking ID into every IPA you install, then you'll be happy with that additional lack of privacy.
Hell, if you don't mind that every message you send has to go through
Apple's servers, then again, that additional lack of privacy is just fine.
You'll be dissatisfied with the iPhone if you want portable memory too.
Or if you want to plug into that (newer) iPhone standard wired headphones.
You'll be happy with the iPhone if, when you search for apps, you don't
care about the child-like filters that Apple (and Google!) provide to you.
If you never want to torrent a file, you'll be happy with that child's toy.
If you never want to install an older app version that is no longer in the app store, and which you didn't make a backup of, the iPhone works for you.
If you never want to install any app (that is on your iPhone) onto any
other phone (without the same AppleID), then the iOS child's toy is fine.
In short, if you don't do the thousands (upon thousands!) of rather useful things that _every other operating system easily does - except for iOS_,
then you'll be perfectly happy playing with the barbie-doll iPhone you own.
In summary, the iPhone is a child's toy - but if that's all you need...

Hi Jolly Roger,
Alan Baker has an IQ of no greater than around 40, so the mere observation that Alan Baker can't conceive of the need to use iOS for anything other
than playing barbie in a pretty red toy house is to be expected of him.

I have two goals on this newsgroup.
1. Convey the truth about Apple products

In terms of the first goal of showing iOS for what it is...
