Rūdolfs Jorens Baltiņš-Kļava (@Rjbk11) reported@TechnoExplorer @Pmeister1979 @themellowhost No, idea what T-mobile ships, but that sounds like an USA problem. Netflix and Facebook apps even if theg do come can be removed in less than 10 seconds. GApps are a part of the ecosystem, considering them bloatware is the same as considering appstore or itunes bloatware.

Heather Linington-Noble (@AlainnFocail) reported@BrigitteAnneB @apimpnamedcarl @masnOrioles That’s so strange! I take it you don’t have an iPhone or iTunes or anything? Where are you? I did hear it was working great some places and having some issues in others with both being able to sign in and cutting in and out.

🌻The Internet Was A Mistake🌻 (@Synapsidgirl) reportedI probably won't be able to watch it at all, because I need an iTunes account, and I can't log into that, because the ******* FONT IS BROKEN, and I can't read anything, but it seems like I need a credit card? Which I don't have.

Kurt (@KF5585) reported@GooglePlay Don't buy movies from this company. False advertising and then won't even refund you if the movie isn't the quality it states after purchase. I had no issues with iTunes or Vudu in the past. Customer service is very limited and can't do much of anything to support

Craig S (@css60657) reported@AppleSupport They specifically said that simply updating iOS via iTunes or over-the-air can cause that sort of problem and a fresh install should be done at every release to prevent problems. That's ridiculous.
