Let me start by saying I'm an avid user of my zenfone 2. It's a great
device and software. And I've eagerly shared my enjoyment of it with
friends.
However, as with Kid's Mode, I think you have made some important and
mistaken assumptions with Easy Mode. That is, you assumed that everyone
inherently wants/needs Easy Mode such that it is designed to turn on and
run at some level by default, and/or that as users we desire to have the
app on our device in the first place. This is very much identical to Kid's
Mode, which quite often turns on by default, despite my best efforts to
manage it with Auto Start Manager, or get it to stop by myself force
closing it.
The reality is that there are many of us as users who have no need for
either of these two apps, nor desire to even engage with them in our user
experience. I'm a fairly accomplished android user. I don't want, don't
need, and would prefer not to see Easy Mode on my device. I would like to
install it. I can't. The most I can do is get rid of updates. But the basic
app still lurks on my phone. Similarly, I don't have and won't be having
children in the future, nor do I even spend much time around children (much
less hand my phone over to them), so I don't want, don't need, and prefer
not to see Kid's Mode on my phone. And with both of these apps, I'm not
even allowed to disable them through the system settings. Really folks? Do
you hold us in such low regard as users that you can't allow us as adults
to disable two apps, the use of which is highly dependent upon a person's
individual life situation? This seems so simple and so obvious, that I
regret the need to have to call it out. But it's difficult to conclude
otherwise.
Don't misunderstand: The apps are fine for those who want and need them.
But they don't need to be a fundamental part of every user's device. You
could have and should make them so that users can decide what they need and
uninstall not just their updates but the entire apps if they so choose.
A sophisticated, customer-focused company like Asus should not base its
products on the completely incorrect assumptions that every adult has, or
is around, children, nor that each user is too unsophisticated to know how
to manage their own android experience. Getting clear about that kind of
unwanted, wrong bias is important for a world class firm like Asus to make
truly world class products.
Thanks, as always, for listening.

讓我先說說我的我的 zenfone 2 狂熱使用者。它是一個偉大的設備和軟體。我熱切地分享它與我享受朋友。然而,隨著孩子的模式,我認為做了一些重要的和與簡單模式的錯誤的假設。那就是,你認為每個人都本來就想/需要簡單模式,這樣它旨在打開和在某種程度上預設情況下,和 (或),我們希望能有的使用者身份運行我們放在首位的設備上的應用程式。這是對孩子的很多相同模式,經常打開預設情況下,儘管我最大的努力管理與自動啟動管理器,或讓它停止自己的力量關閉它。現實是我們很多人是因為沒有使用者需要這兩個應用程式,也不想同他們在我們的使用者之一經驗。我是一個頗有成就的 android 使用者。我不想,不需要並不希望看到我的裝置上的簡單模式。我很想去安裝它。我不能。我可以做的最是擺脫的更新。但基本應用程式仍然潛伏在我的手機上。同樣地,我沒有,不會有孩子們在未來,亦不做我甚至花太多時間在兒童 (多附近不把我的手機交給他們),所以我不想,不需要而更喜歡不,在我的手機上看到孩子的模式。與兩個這些應用程式,我不是即使允許通過系統設置禁用它們。真的是人嗎?做你認為我們在這樣低的方面,作為使用者,您不能容許我們作為成人to disable two apps, the use of which is highly dependent upon a person's individual life situation?
