Thank God Apple is so good at marketing because they suck at R&D

According to Marques Brownlee, here's the best a 3-1/2 trillion-dollar
company with almost no R&D to speak of, can come up with for iOS 18.

I guess this is the best a company without R&D to speak of, can do
(in an entire year of development, this is the best R&D can do?)...

1) The Calculator
   Scientific, math notes with graphical solutions, syncs across
   your AppleID devices, changes variables, answers in handwriting
2) Little Things
   Game Mode CPU priority, Photos App search, Shazam shortcuts,
   RCS Support (in 2024, clap, clap), read receipts, typing indicators
3) Homescreen Customization
   Finally. Kind'a. Icons can go anywhere, welcome to 2024,
   Large icons, tinting icons,
4) Passwords App
   Collected existing settings, sharing iPhone passwords,
   Defaults to Face-ID, not platform compatible
5) Control Center
   colorful, expanded pages, stretch size, more controls,
   including flashlight intensity & beam width (fails),
   lockscreen controls,

Given nobody in tech spends less than Apple in R&D, it's no wonder
yet again, as usual, Apple is five years (or more) behind Android.
