Customer Reviews
See AllNot As Advanced As Advertised
All of the reviews (on Apple blogs) said this was just as good for advanced users as beginners so I figured id give it a shot. A few chapters in and I don’t feel as if I’ve learned much that is new. There are some dead links (like one for the Nomad wallet case) and even one that is supposed to link to a later chapter and just says LINK. The quality of the writing is good but I feel like it is priced for advanced users but written largely for beginners.
🎩Hats off to you
Very well displayed👌🏻🌎 I’ve been so intrigued these past few weeks ever since I switched to 🍎 I barely even sleep 💤 I’m stuck to this 📱 if you have any pointers I’d greatly appreciate it.
Disappointing for a David Sparks product
I’m a big fan of David Sparks and have purchased four other products of his. Frankly, this was a disappointing book and not up to his previous high standards. There are numerous typos, some empty references and a bit of clunky writing. While I know he spent a lot of time compiling this book it is poorly edited and not ready for release. If you are reasonably well read about the iPhone you’ll find too few nuggets here to justify purchase.
