Apple Wallet is free, and does it use modal dialogue boxes anyway?

iCloud I can’t really argue

haven’t had an Apple Music redirect for years

is that constant modal dialogues for paid services? not really

You think Apple wallet is a charity? They get a cut on every transaction. Processing fees are charged to the merchant.

That’s Apple Pay, not the wallet app. The wallet app just shows a collection of cards supplied by the system and apps.

and by implication using your camera or your torch for free is a charity. phones have features my friend. the speakers on your PC are not a “charity”
