Sounds like G Love needs a cool beverage right about now
Classic
As a developer that has to pass through their stupid process everytime I update my apps in their store, I am shocked. I think there is inside player. they are very very nit picky when it comes to apps in the store
If you own cryptocurrency you are just asking to get scammed
Banks anyone?
You mean the technology that was built for money laundering and scamming people was used to scam someone‽ I'm clutching my pearls.
Don't forget this is the same apple app store which allowed games like "send me to heaven" (a game specifically designed to break apple phones) to be published and mass downloaded.
Whenever Apple has hack or exploit it's always.
Brick phone
Steal all your data
So statistically Apple is more dangerous rather than hard to use.
Um, poor us for having to bear these stories?
Please people, keep buying crypto. 😂😂😂
Does admitting you are at fault makes you lose your case ?
I love that band
Sounds like Ai lol
No No No, it is totally apples fault. At the prices they charge for their products, the least they can do is properly secure the app store. Sue them.
I mean its what you get for blinds trusting an entity built on profit. 😂😂😂😂😂
Apple needs to pay up. Simple
Womp womp
Crypto is not a retirement fund, you trade for a profit. Do not view it as investing. Its a game and you have to ready to win, dont play to lose.
Maybe cryptocurrency isn't as great as the tech bros said it was?
I've had enough of Apple and I now sport a Samsung phone etc.. It's just an all around better product.
Unfortunately my sympathies for people who lose money in bitcoin are virtually untraceable and cannot be recovered ¯_(ツ)_/¯
this is why I hate when people say that Apple cares about the privacy of your information more than others. Clearly they don't and haven't for a while just like every other company, you don't make it to the top for caring.
I will never feel sad for someone loosing their crypto…
i JUST watched a crypto commentator warning about these apps. We are not in 2015 apple network anymore; the world is riddled with bad actors on levels unseen. No network is safe, i wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a couple actual “funded” hacking groups dedicated to scaring people away from non bank custody. Banks want everyone to custody with them not with other custodians.
He’s going to make double
That app did not have sauce.
Sorry not sorry that's what you get for using crypto.
I remember my friend had an app to order his weed. It was an app that was available from the Apple App Store. The loop was that the weed was free and you paid for the delivery. Was a very popular app at the time.
Why is he always so sweaty?
apple talks alltime aboutsafety thats why everything has to be check each app eahc update and they take money for it and then fail makes them liable form my viewpoint
I don't trust banks, now let me enter all the security details of my uninsured cryptocurrency into this app without checking the company website
Hold up, not so fast. This wouldn’t be an Apple issue but a regulation issue. Because of the language around crypto payout apps and the lack of laws governing them because of trump. The fact that Microsoft had the same issue should tell you it’s bigger than a single company
because they really don't care and they want you to repurchase everything I should know I used to work for them
