Money laundering? Or just going kids download on devices with their parents data to go unnoticed for months at a time?

They 100% bank on people forgetting cancelling

Also, Apple gave iOS a default calculator just a few months ago. When I had an iPad I had to download dozens and dozens of calculators to find one that didnt have ads or subscriptions

Edit: I meant iPad. They sold iPads without the calculator from launch until Q4 2024

Is it not the same OS? I had one iPhone and came back to Android.

apple brands them as totally seperate os's but basically ipadOS is just ios with some extra features and different default apps.

One of those differences was the lack of a calculator on ios until recently.

What an interesting omission. Thanks for pointing that out!
