hidden data stuck on my device

8GB of icloud drive appear in my storage but there's nothing in my icloud drive. there's no way to delete it so i only have about 20gb of space due to the bloated OS size.
p.s. apple, go beg you rich friends for money instead of preying on your broke af users. there's a reason we don't have your newer devices: we don't have any money to upgrade. this tactic of sabotaging your older devices is obvious and only makes me want an android if i ever get the chance.

Terrible smb support

This feels like it was written by an intern. Terrible SMB support, USB also is terrible outside of very basic use cases. Completely unreliable

How do the engineers creating this pile of useless garbage, use it? It’s terrible pointless useless.

I saw a review that believes people hate it for the lack of bells & whistles. THATS NOT REMOTELY CLOSE TO THE ISSUES.

You Can’t simply scroll photos left or right. You need to swipe it hard and fast; that isn’t a bell or whistle that’s basic functionality this app Doesn’t have. It’s useless

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THE PEOPLE THAT BUILT THIS USELESS garbage actually use it. It doesn’t do anything worth taking up Space for, it’s useless. Apple hires the dumbest morons Seriously who build a pile of trash that has all the functionality of 1980’s Texas Instruments Calculator.
