Additional crippled features:

- Requirement to use ONLY the Apple web renderer (WebKit)

- Why does my iPad Pro take minutes to refresh my email boxes and show new messages, when it's not doing anything else at all? Email on all my other devices is snappy.

- No way to turn off participation in the "Find My" BLE mesh network. I'd rather have a choice about whether or not I want to use my battery/network to support their mesh network.

With Apple's announcement about incorporating AI into all their future products, I'm not certain that I will not be buying anything else from them.

You can choose to have your iOS or iPadOS device not participate in the Find My network by going to Settings[...]"
