Hi

Yes, Number 1- how you can't see iphone emojis on Android Number 2, go on mobile, KZhead, subscriptions and turn your phone horizontally, wile watching a video, and now try to scroll...
random disconnection of wifi?
The one thing I find more annoying than ads are the fake ads and the fake X buttons. Then there's the multi-step ad. You go through the advert, like 30 seconds worth, before the exit button pops up. But, it turns out that it just leads to a new screen that makes you wait 5-10 seconds longer for the actual exit button to appear. Edit: Look I just read a lot of stuff. So the ads are usually to unlock stuff like fast passes and story chapters...

Fun fact: the tiktok voice is someone's actual voice
My absolute worst one is how some mobile games (usually the voodoo ones I hate that company) have decided that showing an ad after every round isn't enough and they have to play audio ads while you are in the game. I want this made into a crime
plus when they ask if you want to watch an ad to "double your reward" or something, then you say no and they give you an ad anyway.
plus when i try to turn off internet on my phone to not get ads and then they just say u cant play this game without ads
Tech companies need to watch this. Arun is speaking for all of us.
The problem is quite a lot of these frustrations are by design so the companies can make more money. They don't need to watch this, because they know what they're doing. Profit over inconvenience.
@@marzoval9551 If they were to make it conveniece over profit they would make way more money than they actually do in the first place, also anyone else notice Grindr: gay dating and chat on the phone at 4:41

Facts
I COULD RANT ABOUT THE SUBSCRIPTION THING ALL DAY. the fact that we no longer own products or services but rather rent them out frustrates me so much. i’d much rather pay a large solid price for a service like adobe premiere pro than be paying a month subscription
Time to sail the seas my friend
they are pushing people towards piracy
Yessss! I love love love one time purchases! You save tons more money and you basically own the subscription now! I refuse to do monthly or yearly payments unless I absolutely HAVE to.
@@stefankljajic6194 Never stopped lmao
It's getting to obscene levels. As an example: I no longer own my insulin pump, the company charges my insurance every month to "lease" it. How long until they start charging a monthly fee for organ transplants?
I hate when you google some information about a specific topic and enter a news channel's website and they literally force you scroll to the bottom of the website because they filled the page with unnecessary information instead of giving it with just a single sentence just to make the news longer.
unnecessary info + ads in the MIDDLE of the article
It’s a weird vibe seeing Arun be negative for 18 minutes straight…

I wouldn't call it being negative, its more of pointing out actually frustrating points in tech

They only look for 3. Click 3 of the closest and then verify. You don't have to get every single pixel.

News websites that let you read the first paragraph of an article, then you have to scroll through 5 ads to get to the next paragraph which is behind a paywall/subscription.
and then also even with an ad blocker it's instantly hidden behind an overlay. the slide show article WITH A RANDOM THING IN THE MIDDLE IN ALL CAPS. just for padding. The verge.
the smallest cross buttons on a mobile game ad
One of the most annoying thing is brand loyalty, when people are so loyal that companies can get away with anything.

You deserve all the success and support that you have achieved and accomplished over the years. I automatically click on a new video once I see them. I also find myself revisiting videos I have previously watched. One of my favorite channels, hands down 💯 ❤
Similar to #11, web pages that constantly try to force you to download their app rather than just provide the content you're looking for. Reddit has become really bad about this.
Reddit is pretty much bad for anything because political discussions cannot be separated from other discussions. Additionally, if you have a conservative or centrist political leaning, you may be excluded or banned from certain subreddits. What a wasted potential.
@@RzExfeL subs have a right from banning u
@@mirror1643 Subs however do not have a right from banning me if I am being respectful and not breaking any rules. Plus I am not banned from any subs. I am perma banned on Reddit itself.
or even force you to make an account, so then they could sell your data and make money
I think the most infuriating thing is how every gadget / tech thing needs wifi and an app...
My videos are 50x better and have more entertainment value
This. And half the time the app is pretty much unusable. It's especially frustrating when it's for something like a smartwatch, which needs notifications to work reliably.
I don't know. I've almost destroyed two phones because Google maps thinks I know how far 100 feet is away at any given moment of time while moving down the road.
@@Windstorm7x7-wl8ko That's why you can't rely only on the app, you still need to know roughly where you are and the layout of the streets. Google Maps is pretty good at its job, but it can only be as accurate as the sensors in your phone.
And forces you to create an account just to use said app
some of these issues demand separate video. very well done! finally someone talks about issues that infuriate me for more than a decade. and they are still not solved!
I despise the fact that video game companies, mainly Nintendo, release half-baked games for beloved series, and when they do poorly, they assume that it's the series' fault and discontinue it

This has got to be one of the most hilarious videos you've posted. The content is real, sympathizes with us, and is a well thought out argument, but the way it's presented has me in stitches as I profess agreement
Your videos are not easy for you to do but I have to say that not only am I impressed, but I’m also entertained and enjoying them. Thank you so much.
This video made me mad, meaning everything here is 100% true and relatable. Tech sometimes seems to find a way to ruin my day, like no I don't want to give a calculator the permission to use my camera 💀
Oh no because you didn't do that your phone's selfdestructing in 10 seconds
pov you say no camera for calculator it turns on camera and says PUT ON CAMERA FOR CALCULATOR mad
Why the hell does your calculator app need access to your camera? 💀Unless there is a secret feature that requires it which I highly doubt there is.
And even worse: why the app gets the information about whether you accepted. There should be a third option, "fake it".
@@AntonioNoack apps are getting smart these days especially with those devs with this newer generation.
One more tech frustration: When you're searching for something online and hoping for a written article about it but its only available as a video, so you have to watch the whole video to find the answer you're looking for... and even then, the video may well be clickbait and not give you an answer at all.
You can summarise the video or transcript it via its subtitles and cherry on the top is AI website
Most videos dont have subtitles. Tada 🎉
or even worse: when you search for the solution to something, and you find someone asking the same question for the same scenario getting an answer which worked for them, but it doesnt work FOR YOU
at least the problem is slightly mitigated with transcripts in youtube
So many things to relate especially the "WAIT! DON'T SKIP THE AD" and also the "IF YOU DON'T TO BECOME THIS/THAT, THEN SKIP THIS AD" thing. And even though I was going to see that ad, now I will not 'cause it just INFURIATES!
The Grindr app placement was soooo funny lmao
I can't even begin to tell how relatable this video is to my daily life struggles with technology. Atleast I'm not the only one.
I agree with so much as well. Although some of these are solved by using Android and not Apple. IE: The back button. It works for KZhead.
So true. I hate most of these facts......
Absolutely! I was nodding along as Arun kept listing them!
For number 89, i think captchas like the 'select all with traffic lights' as well as the 'tick this checkbox to prove you are not a robot' check your mouse movements to see if they are linear and robotic or arbitraire like an average humans will be, because bots can tick a box and identify traffic lights but cant really match the random mouse movements of a human
that is very interesting indeed - did not know that
What does it do on phones
I've heard that too and that obviously makes a lot of sense
IBM: In 2014 Google released reCAPTCHA v2, which replaced text- and image-based challenges with a simple checkbox stating "I am not a robot." As users check the box, reCAPTCHA v2 analyzes the user’s interactions with web pages, evaluating factors like typing speed, cookies, device history, and IP address to determine whether a user is likely to be human. The checkbox is also part of how the CAPTCHA works: no CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA tracks the user's mouse movements as they click the box. A human's movements tend to be more chaotic, whereas bots' movements are more precise. If no CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA suspects a user may be a bot, it presents them with an image-based CAPTCHA challenge.
What about phones
OMG, I love this video. It's all the rants I've got in my mind and you're saying them for me!
My current pet peeve is apps and devices wanting access to ALL of your contacts. Whether it is for a rental car, work phone, or school please devise a simple way to allow it to have access only to a select few.
You REALLY spoke on behalf of all of us here bro!!
Agreed 👍
Genuinely one of the only channels I wholeheartedly enjoy watching :)
12:35 not only laptops also phones, and more generally it is so annoying that they are adding all this stupid stuff that you don't need and they are removing the things that you do need(SD card, headphone jack and probably in the future even your charging port).
Why is there literally something SO satisfying about someone posting a video about every single persons pet peeves in tech? Thank you and keep up the good work Arun!
Agreed! I actually told my partner "OMG you have to watch this video! I finally don't feel alone any more!" . Companies could learn a lot by taking this video and actually learning something from it.
"Sorry, your new password cannot be the same as your old password" Gets me every time

For no. 5 at 18:12, the reason why you can’t use Face ID or Touch ID when the device has been restarted is simply due to the Secure Enclave being locked. In broad strokes, the way Face ID/Touch ID work is when they scan your face or fingerprint, the scan gets converted into a model which is then compared to the one stored on the Secure Enclave and when the comparison is done, the Secure Enclave just outputs a Boolean authentication token (true or false) which will either unlock or keep the device locked respectively. So you can’t use any biometric authentication until the Secure Enclave has been unlocked by the passcode. The same mechanism is used to temporarily disable Face ID/Touch ID by pressing and holding the side and volume buttons. The whole point is to use something other than biometrics to unlock the Secure Enclave, hence the passcode.
𝙰𝚖 𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚎..
I'm surprised Arun doesn't know that.
Unnecessary feature
@@Iiiiiiiii69iiiiiiiiii not really. Comes in handy when biometric sensors fail to operate. And making the user enter the passcode every now and then will make sure they remember it. Imagine not using the passcode for months, many users forget.
This is the most relatable video ever. Laughed the whole way through it. You’re the best at this man.
2:08 For 89, it's nice to know that, usually, the boxes that just spill over you don't check won't count, the main point is just to track how the cursor goes along the screen and see if the behavior is bot-like (as in it checks if it glides in an extremely straight line or in a very exact manner, etc.), so it's not too bad. I'm not sure about the deciphering of the sometimes unintelligible sequences of letters though.
I relate to about 90% of those tech frustrations. It was very enjoyable to watch. Thank you!
I get more and more shocked with every consistent Rick roll in the vids and how genius they keep being. Amazing video again Arun. Glad your channel is so big, you deserve it.

Man all these frustrations are very valid. Its insane to think how far some companies have got away with this for so long.
This video isn't like most. You're talking about so many things that affect us on the daily and nobody seems to complain about. Thank you for bringing to light on these topics, because it is incredibly frustrating how there is such a lack of communication from a company to its customers, or just greed.
definitely a crack up vid. thanks arun!!
Fun fact about captcha you only kinda have to get the captcha right its mainly watching your mouse movements so just move it about a bit and you should be allowed through more often. Your refined 180 flicks are whats getting you locked out, your mouse movement is to precise
9:29 finally, he’s asking the hard questions I’ve been bothered by that since I was a kid
Love this video idea! I strongly dislike Netflix's auto-play features, like I just want to scroll and read the titles but Netflix auto plays the trailer in half a second. And physical game discs are a joke. I feel like we should just be able to buy games as a memory card nowadays so you dont have to be online to download them 🤬
I usually wind up muting my TV while I'm reading if I actually wanna watch this or that movie😅
Um physical games aren't are a joke to be honest but it's your opinion and I respect that
Nintendo still uses real physical games with no internet connection required!
@@assassin8636he didn't say physical games, he said physical game disc's, which he thinks should be replaced by a memory card that you copy the game from. My issue with this is Piracy so maybe they make it proprietary idk
you can disable autoplay in your Netflix profile or account settings
I kind of actually like that one and the fact that you can point it practically anywhere yes I recognise the remote
bruhhh this needs a Part 2, 3 4 and 5! I'm sure I resonated with 95%+ of these and I hope tech CEO's can hear this plea
The biggest combo! I decided to download one of those Ad games, and then once I installed and played it, it was giving me Ads like every single time I win! So i was like "screw it" ill turn off my wifi and then only to realize that you need to be online AT A SINGLEPLAYER GAME!.
You can use a dns with ad blocking feature, so you don’t ever get ads in apps

Hi Arun you are my favourite youtuber i am subbed to you and hope continue making vids.😁
ARUN SPEAKING THE FACTS WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥💯💯
1:42 Watching movies with my family sucks because of volume. One needs it quiet and others need it loud. Whether It's because you're used to it, can barely hear, or are sensitive to sounds, it's always a problem so we have to constantly raise and lower the volume based on if it's dialogue or loud sounds.
Headphones for every one
So true
Alternatively you can try running the audio through a compressor.
My number 1 is how everything seems to force or shove ads, purchases, subscriptions, notifications, or view something once then you see it everywhere and whatever else they want. When you can honestly care less with what they are pushing
Can’t care less *
7:29 I agree, at my school computer lab there are some computers with Windows 11 and some with Windows 10 and i find is so wierd that me and my friend (both have computers with Windows 11) always have the wrong weather.

Thanks mate, this video helped me a lot in understanding a basic thing that the problems which makes me frustrate to such an extreme level is a universal problem and there is nothing to loose your temper in the process and spoil your day rather than focusing on other important things 👍🏼
What frustrated you to such an "extreme" level?
Best rant video ever😂
58. HELL YEAH, I was so happy you mentioned it!
I'm surprised you haven't mentioned this, but what I find most infuriating is the fact that you need to create an account on almost every site you visit. Why would they require my email for something free or a trial of something?
Because they are not free. You pay with a bit of personal info.
and obviously you need a credit card for a "free" trial... companies hope you forgot about the subscription so they get more money 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Because they are selling your info. If you want to know why any business, anywhere, at any point in time has done ANYTHING the answer is money. It's always money. It's so fucking gross.
I love the captcha one. I always struggle with picking the boxes when they hang over just a bit 😂
captcha is for training AI NOT to prove you are a human
I never nodded to a video more than to this one. Perfection.
Hope they take notes well and try fixing them...👍

An absolute glorious rant. Relatable on so many levels
I had a ten minute rant last night whilst opening Prime about the exact same thing. I want to carry on watching something from the night before why oh why put it half way down the page! Great video as always Arun ❤
I assume they want to push the stuff thats charged as extra rather than giving you the option to continue watching you've already paid for
I just love when Windows does an update and restarts. It’s so much fun to have to figure out what browser tabs I had open because they didn’t restore and then find out Windows has disconnected my mic and speakers every damn time. Just pure joy hopping on a zoom call, only to find out I can’t hear or speak. In Microsoft’s defence, it must be really hard to ensure that ridiculously simple settings don’t randomly change I guess.
This video is actually so good. Every single one i was like yup, exactly lol
Whenever an app asks "Are you satisfied" I say "no" and then "don't leave feedback". It's the fastest way. The second you say "Yes I like your app" they send you to the App Store to rate it and give a review.

Offline games are a rarity now. I had an internship of sorts in a place where signals were sparse. So finding a game that actually works was so hard. This will backfire on companies eventually i feel. Gamers be it casual or hardcore will realise this madness and flip on them.
