Apple recently has been working very hard on their marketing and they finally found a solution to bridge the Android users to iOS! For example, recently they created an application for Android users, to allow them to Move to iOS[^]. A total flop! Is that evangelism?
Secondly, they are now allowing you to Go green! You can now Recycle your Android devices (more likely) where you have a chance to recycle it for free at any Apple Store. Great isn't it? 
Those 5210 5-stars must be from Apple's employees. If I use it, my vote would be 1!

I don't think it's appropriate to insult a big mac by comparing it to this stunt from Apple in this manner!

If the application does what it claims to do, would you still vote it based on publisher name? How is that a fair review?
I do not own any Apple product and will probably never use this app. So, just because I don't like Apple products, should I go ahead and vote it one?
I went through some reviews there and most of them are voting one because they do not like Apple products. I would rather flag these reviews as they are not helpful at all.

Not the app, but I will vote it because of the "Recycle your Android for free".

For free part is idiotic as I have known many places that are doing this for ages. Still, this is not a reason to vote the app as 1. You might report the description as it has nothing to do with the app itself.

Hi Afzaal, I can't understand this; I went to the site you recommended, but I get a message saying: "You don't have any devices."
But, I can't find anywhere on that web-site where I can give Apple the address to send the devices to.
Can you help ?
thanks, Bill

Not sure if you are serious.
If you have a Android device and that is linked to the Google account you are using to access play store (the website), they check if the app is compatible with your device.
Looks like you either do not have an android device or you have not linked it with the Google account you use to access the site.

Both Apple and Android have failed to send me devices: I have warned them this will not be tolerated much longer.
I just can't stand being left to my own devices.
disgustedly, Bill

Oh, that is Play Store and perhaps (or specifically) you just need to see whether you are logged in (with an account that has a device) or not, then the recommended platform (Android OS version). In my case, it gives me the device I have.
As per the text displayed, the "where" is anywhere there is an Apple Store. So, you can do so at any Apple Store. If you meant to get a device from Apple that is not gonna happen. Apple is asking for devices! Address is given already by Apple themselves.

Honestly, having had to move an Android device to Apple (MIL got an iphone 4s for free, she had an early android bird so far), I'd have loved to use an app.
Installing the Apple phone was a time-consuming experience, especially with all the crapware (iTunes, ...) that is first required for it. Resetting an iPhone takes literally ages. There also was a pending update that tool 1h30 to complete  .
But to be completely fair, I suppose that the other way round (iOs->Android) must not be better.

I am an Android fan, but I'd give this to them, "iPhones are much stable as compared to Android devices". No matter which Android device you take. But, as already mentioned most of the procedures are painful.
I am a developer, I would love to have it my way, not the way their developer intended. I used many Apple devices, but I will always find myself in a framework that does not prohibits me from tinkering. That is my job, to tinker.

Sometimes you have to forget what's gone, appreciate what remains, and look forward to what's coming next.

Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.

Nah.
Forget what's coming next.
Appreciate what's gone.
Look forward to what remains.

I heard that Freddie Mercury like Mars Bars. Does that count as Mars being in the house of Mercury?

That was Marianne Faithfull.
So Mars would be in the House of Jagger.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

The key word in the original message is 'Sometimes'.
Sometimes, do as OP says; at all other times, do as you say.

Now that requires guts and belief that what's coming next will be far more better than what's gone.
