Hello, people in this post we will talk about why one should update
their smartphone or PC and we will also debunk some update myths.So,
let's get started with the update myths and then i will tell you why one
should update their smartphone or PC.
Myths -
1. System Updates consume very much mobile data or internet connection
So, some people will say its not a myth but i will say its a false
belief among many smartphone users in countries like India, people may
spend around 15 GB of data pirating movies and software and what not but
they don't even think to spend around 500 MB for system updates. They
think that software update doesn't bring any change, because they don't
believe in under the hood changes such as bug fixes, patches etc.
2. Software updates delete user's data
This is completely a myth popular among the smartphone users and PC
users of India and many other countries that any software update they do
will delete their own data such as photos and videos, and hence they
never install the software update. But, truly no such thing happens
because the system will ask you to save some space even before
downloading the update.
3.It takes hours to install an update
This one is 50 % true and 50 % false, it is true for crappy PC users
(false for High end PC users) and it is also false for smartphone users,
smartphone receive updates less regularly and they are generally bug
fixes and security patches, the smartphone updates take maximum 10
minutes to install and not more than that on average.
4.Software Updates are Useless -
Some people think that software updates and system updates are useless
as they think only feature updates are useful and not any other update
like security patches and bug fixes and other under-the-hood
improvements. But PC users fear the feature updates and don't install
them but they should install the feature updates too as many times
security patches and bug fixes are bundled in a feature update by the OS
vendor.
