I am so ****** !!!
It is not up for Apple to decide how to use the space on my iPhone. If I want to buy a 128 gig phone and use 64 of that for photo storage that is my prerogative . The latest changes in these last two releases to the camera roll and to the photo stream are as confusing as anything I have ever seen.
The entire pictures application needs a rewrite and needs to be parameterized to allow me to select where things go and how long I keep them.
I have completely abandoned apple for photo storage, photo organization, photo archival, and photo edits. This a direct result of apple's refusal to listen to the voice of the customer and to design a robust application that works in the real world.
I use photos as a to do list of sorts, to capture ideas that need further development, to document the state of things AND to remind me of memories. Photographs are more a life and business tool for me than they are for mere enjoyment.
If you want a superior product of choice private message me and I'll be glad to tell you who I'm using.
