iPhones are hard to use
Most of this article just lists semi-advanced features that people don't know about.

Apple wants a product that's easy for anyone to use and that often means keeping non-essential features out of the way.<p>I’d be more interesting in seeing feedback for Apple on how to improve the situation without compromising on ease of use.<p>(Regarding the WiFi thing...I agree this is a very annoying default setting, but I think a worse outcome is when a user shows up in their friend’s house and has no idea how to connect to the WiFi. Making the user go to Settings -> WiFi to disable this prompt means they’ve demonstrated they’ll be able to go back to that page to manually connect to a network in the future.  If you turn this setting off on a friend's phone, be sure they still know how to connect manually.<p>(Though I do think iOS could be smarter and not prompt you to connect to intermittent networks while you’re driving around a city...))
