Factory reset doesn’t delete persistent app data enabled by app developer [paraphrased]
What about Erase All Content and Settings? You seriously can’t fully erase a second-hand phone you bought?! That’s insane
What’s even worse is that Apple is not fully erasing the phones that they refurbish.
They are fully erasing it. But it’s still the same iPhone. With a device ID that is banned.

What’s worse than that is Apple.
I can’t see what was posted above anymore, but the DeviceCheck API lets app developers store 2 binary digits (that means 4 different states: 00, 01, 10 or 11) per device on Apple’s servers. So, no, these don’t get erased during a Factory Reset as they’re stored on Apple’s servers. But your phone will.
One more great reason not to use Apple phones.

It never ceases to amaze me how iPhone users think a bump in a version years down the road, keeps them secure while the browser in iOS needs whole god damn system update to upgrade.
You wait for that patch for a Safari vulnerability for whenever Apple feels like it but Android devs can push patch and deploy within days or hours. And also sideload it, if a really important fix would take a long time through regular channels. And also there’s more than 1 browser engine on Android, so all users aren’t vulnerable to the same exploit at the same time.
But hey, keep on swallowing that Apple marketing wholesale though.

Maybe a reason not to use Snapchat?
Gosh that’s sucks people on iPhone using Snapchat.
Says a guy on an android that doesn’t even know what Snapchat does.
