So, what's the verdict on iOS 10? Should I put it on my iPhone 5S?

I'm running iOS on my iPhone 5. The most major change is the way that you unlock your phone. NBD.

I am also running iOS 10 on a 5S. No troubles, the unlock changed and it suddenly defaulted to making noise when I typed which was super annoying for the three minutes until I figured out how to turn it off.

So it's not a magical lifechanger? Hmph.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's most noteable improvement is lots of icons for the Messages app.

I just subscribed to The Washington Post. Should I download their app? I do all my reading on my iPad, but I've never installed an app for a single news source before.

I don't know that I'd describe the Messages changes as "improvements" so much...

I stand corrected. Casper tells me "Oh my gosh mom so much is different you can send so many stuffs." There are new emojis and you can draw a picture. Big whoop. "It's so cool mom."

Hey. New board.
My wife deleted a lot of built in apps. She liked that. She yells every time she tried to unlock it. This is what it is to learn about an OS upgrade for not-your-phone.
Month two on the Moto G4 and still loving it BTW. Anybody needing a cheap but still totally solid phone, this remains a great choice. It's taken everything I've thrown at it.

I actually really need to get a new phone -- my current phone is the Moto G from 2 years back (I think), and I've liked it. I am realizing I need a phone with a much bigger storage capacity, though, because I can't even update Pokemon Go right now (the horror). (It's not the storage issue that's driving my need to get a new phone; it's that I dropped it on the tile floor of the kitchen and spiderwebbed the glass, because I am a dummy who didn't get a case for the phone.)
