And I couldn't regret more! I made a stupid decision to change my 930 for 5s. I can't describe amount of frustration I fell now! I know that no one can help me here, just needed a shoulder to cry. I'll try to sell this peace of crap tomorrow and buy new 930. Sad that only after you lost, one came to it's mind. :) Well, thanks for listening, see you again soon (with 930 in my hand, I hope).

Well with the current value of the 5s (I've been poking around for an iPhone to test drive) you should have no issue picking one up. :)

Hey I share your pain lol. It's not exactly a bad experience it just really feels a bit lacking is all.

Thankfully I still have my lumia 640 Xl and 1520

OS is the iPhone 6 Plus is inferior, but there is not a single doubt in my mind that app support is superior, and I mean not even remotely close superior. We've always believed we were "close" but nope. I had to switch for work related apps and while I long for my WinPhone OS, I don't see myself being able to give up the luxury of any app when I want it.

I have to sort of disagree. SInce rocking the iPhone 6, I haven't really been overly impressed with the apps as I thought I would be.
The only app that truly makes me happy to use as it works wonderfully(windows phone version not so much) is Tapatalk tbh.
I also do love the abundance of photo editing/camera apps...one gives Creative Studio a run for its money in features yet it is not that stable so CS still wins.

Other than that, I am noticing that unless you need a niche type of app, the app situation on IOS of course is superior by quantity but at least in my own experience, I am not lacking too much and what I am lacking is not a deal breaker.

I don't know, but all Cisco apps, actually any enterprise app, is superior. Twitter, Instagram, snapchat, Tapatalk, LinkedIn, BofA, Mint, Remote Desktop, & every other app I've used is superior.

We have apps like 6tag & Tweetium, but believe me when I tell you that having minimal third party support is not a substitute for constantly updated first party apps.

Hell, Microsoft's own apps are superior.

I am not too worried about Microsoft apps since windows 10 is nearing and they do finally seem to be on par.

I wouldn't call Rudy support minimal though as I strong prefer the look and layout and features of 6tag that using the iOS version just feels inferior to me lol.

Twitter I will give you that but tbh bare as it is i am good with the windows phone app as long as I can tweet.

My Main complaint about the windows phone apps is not the features or the lack of them. It is the fact that notifications work when they want to and don't when they don't lol. Take tapatalk. I have my own forum I run and I never got notifications until recently haha. Quite annoying when you are trying to have discussions with your members.

Minimal in the sense that support like Rudy's only comes to big name apps. For instance, Fandango & other movie goer apps suck.

On Windows Phone? I can tell you that all first party apps work flawless on the iPhone.

It really is too bad that the OS is absolutely terrible. & also that phone signal was obviously not the top priority for them.

Again, I have always said IPhone/IOS was a complete rob from leapfrogs leappad. So juvenile and basic. Boring and mind numbing. Thank god, because the hipsters can think for themselves anyways. The app gap, is my ONLY GRIPE with WP. Even on my old 1020 phone my OS is smooth, attractive, useful, and polished. Plus the Lumia hardware, while being polycarbonate, is more visually and tactfully appealing. I have yet anyone say my 1020 is not attractive and everyone looks at it, eyes wide like whats that! instead of the sea of rotten fruit or samesongs.

Back to Lumia! Today I bought myself pretty 735 in white color and love it for now! Will try to post some review about differences and pros and cons between iOS and WP in next few days. Nice to be here again guys! Cheers!
