Your battery is at 48% and its almost 11am, you may want to charge if you plan on heavy usage
Maybe they just woke up and are yet to charge theire phone
Who doesn't plug their phone in overnight?
People who don't want to brick their phone?
That doesn't happen unless you're using a really janky power brick. You're actually more likely to brick your phone by fast charging it all the time.
Charging overnight allows the phone to trickle charge so that the battery doesn't get worn out so quickly.
I don't. I charge it when I wake up. It's about ready when I need to go.

Honestly it could be that developing and maintaining these region-locked differences in OS might be more expensive than saving every last penny from not allowing piracy (which is the real deal for this fuss).
Big majority of android users don't sideload either, most people are so technically illiterate they don't really grasp the idea of an App Store overall, it's just a place for them the get an Instagram button on a new device
I doubt that. There's already a lot of other features out there that have to be region locked because of local laws. Could be medical related, car crash detection, etc. The cost of an engineer just reusing that same logic would be fairly minimal.

I don't know how the situation works with apple devices, but wouldn't it be possible to import a model from a country with sideloading required?
I know it's more expensive, but it's something I'd do and have been thinking about with a different phone that ain't available in my country.

What is that square with an up arrow icon near the bottom left supposed to do? Help you square up for hitting a golf ball or something?
Open in external app
Thanks. Not particularly intuitive.
