iPhone is considered one of the best cell phone devices available in the market today. Despite of its popularity, I consider iPhone as one of the worst cell phone devices because of its numerous software drawbacks. I’ll try to point out all software drawbacks of iPhone device in this blog post.

No copy of text
You cannot copy any text in you iPhone device. The text you write in one application cannot be copied to another application. I consider this as one of the major defects of iPhone.

GPS doesn’t direct you
GPS in iPhone is good to locate your position but it cannot show direction to your destination from your current location.

No flash player
Though web browsing is excellent, you cannot see any flash files. Today’s webpage is made live with the use of various flash files that may be for animation, for ads or even for games. There are many websites like Nokia’s N-series website which are designed completely in Flash. Such websites and content designed in flash will not be displayed in iPhone browser.

No external applications available easily
For cell phones of other platform like Symbian, there are thousands of free applications and games available readymade. But for iPhone no much applications and games are available. iPhone software SDK was recently released and many developers have started to work for iPhone application creation.

These are the major defects of iPhone application. If you know other defects, please comment on this post.
