I did pay for the premium version of Apollo and I absolutely would have paid about £20 a month for access.

It was the #1 most used app on all my devices.

Not now perhaps, but then it was. To me. I’d not pay them a farthing now.

I know, I snorted at that.
Oh, shit we’re losing money because we pursued endless growth instead of the UX for customers….quick, uhhh….AI!

This is actually a thing. Worked in Apple Stores for years and saw laptops and phones full of rice. Whole grains and bits n bobs.

So before the rice you could actually do a modular repair sometimes. Swap out the battery or SSD.

Whole thing full of rice bits attached to every component? Forget it.

Also, once a device is liquid damaged, often rice will resurrect it but only until the logic board rusts through / goes dry. Copper oxidises over time.

On the other hand, if you can’t afford a repair or swap out, (contrary to popular opinion, Apple sell replacement devices through their service channel way cheaper than new units) rice might give your device a new lease of life. So sometimes worth the gamble.

Edit: missed the D off SSD which kind of changed the context!

That’s a great point!
