If we skip torrenting and move to something else, what's your _new_ excuse
for why iOS is crippled such that _many_ app functionalities are impossible
and yet, they're on _all_ the other four common consumer operating systems?

Why, for example, are graphical wifi signal strength debuggers _not_ on
iOS, and yet, every other common consumer platform has them in quantity?

Are you now going to claim that debugging wifi on mobile devices is stupid?

Where's your proof that these things are impossible.

I don't know.

But you don't either.

because there's insufficient demand to bother.

writing it is fairly straightforward, which has been explained to you
already. once again, there are numerous graphing frameworks that could
be used, just feed it the appropriate data source.

it is when wifi base stations can do it automatically, and do a much
better job than humans can.

You have such a low IQ that you don't realize you make up kindergarten
solutions to all the issues that come up that you _hate_ about iOS.

If demand were the reason, they wouldn't abound on _all_ other platforms.
Except iOS.

Are you saying there's no demand for graphical cellular signal strength
debuggers on a smartphone (which, after all, is dependent on that signal)?

'Cuz that's _another_ of many app functionalities impossible on iOS.

To claim that the only way you'll get even the most basic of app
funcdtionality out of iOS is to write it yourself, is just ridiculous.

Do you realize you have to fabricate a _different_ excuse for each and
every one of the many app functionalities that aren't available on iOS?

The fact is there is only _one_ reason for _all_ these iOS deficiencies.
And it's NOT the hardware.
