You're answering the question all wrong for this kind of newsgroup.

The correct answer is never "you can't" but "not needed & nobody wants it."

Silly Google puts it in all their settings just to clutter up the user
interface, which is why an iPhone UI is so uncluttered and simple to use.

what possible benefit is there for an end user to know the
instantaneous refresh rate of the display, as it constantly changes
based on the currently content, as well as various other factors
(finger motion, power management, thermals, etc.)?

app developers can determine the refresh rate for timing app animations
if needed.

<https://developer.apple.com/documentation/quartzcore/cadisplaylink>
The duration property provides the amount of time between frames at
the maximumFramesPerSecond. To calculate the actual frame duration,
use targetTimestamp - timestamp. You can use this value in your app
to calculate the frame rate of the display, the approximate time the
system displays the next frame, and to adjust the drawing behavior so
that the next frame is ready in time to display.

a very bored app developer could write an app that queried and
displayed that value, although that won't actually be of much use for
one very obvious reason (which i doubt the usual suspects will figure
out).

None, of course. It’s only important to Kiddie Trolls because it’s
“something you can do on Android but not on iOS”.

As if.

What the Kiddie Trolls fail to understand is that iPhones are not aimed at
computer geeks. Nor are iPads. Actually the Kiddie Trolls fail to
understand LOTS of things. But I digress.

iPhones/iPads etc. appeal to non-geeks and non-nerds precisely because all
the gory details are hidden. You turn it on and It Works. That’s it.

Since 8 of the top 10 selling phones last year were iPhones, I would say
that Apple is on the right track with this.

Since I am not a clueless Kiddie Troll - and have 40 years of programming
experience in multiple languages - yes the reason is obvious. The very
act of displaying this info, say in a tachometer-style round gauge with a
needle moving around showing the refresh rate - is going to affect the
refresh rate.

But hey, Kiddie Trolls. Feel free to add this to The List. This is yet
another “No one has asked for that. If there was ANY demand there would
be multiple apps for it”.

This is also Very Obvious. Predictably, the Kiddie Trolls

nobody else has guessed.

the reason is simple: iphone apps are full-screen.

that means that when the user switches to another app (such as a game
with a faster rate, or an email app with a slower rate), the app that
has the rate display will be in the background and no longer visible.

Not a great metric. Referencing the recent list posted on the subject,
there are so many brands and models of Android that their individual
shares prevent many Android phones from being standouts in the top 10.
It's actually surprising that any make it to the list at all.

Yet phones like the Galaxy 23 Ultra are in the same league as top
iPhones - and in some respects better.

You may as well ask why gamers bother to display their fps & temperature.

Or you don't understand what stresses a system.

Have you never noticed gaming PCs with the FPS displayed on the screen?
It's constantly changing - and that's exactly why gamers HUD the FPS.

Technically competent gamers want to know FPS information in real time.
Look up MSI Afterburner for just one of many examples of related tools.

They even have temperature displayed constantly as they stress graphics.

That's likely why Google has that option in every Android phone.

maybe a mix of both.

you'd first need to call him on an android phone and obtain the optimal

To the actual _adults_ on this newsgroup (& for the permanent record),

3. Worse, they _think_ they know what they are talking about.

details about our vehicles because we want to UNDERSTAND how to debug.

I have them all just like on Android I have debugging tools, and my point

They own almost no comprehension of what it takes to debug a device.

HINT: Every competent bimmer & beemer owner owns the BMW tools (many are in
German) such as INPA, EDIABAS, NCSExpert, NCS Dummies, DIS/GT1, EasyDIS, &
Progman for the purpose of debugging, changing settings, & programming.

Back to the topic, the iPhone has always been designed for clueless people.

So it makes sense Apple would never provide anything useful for debugging
to iPhone owners (e.g., graphical Wi-Fi debugging tools) or, in this case,
frame rate debugging tools.

The iPhone owner is, as Jolly Roger & Alan Baker show, utterly clueless.
Yet, to Apple's credit, the iPhone sells well to stupid clueless people.

That's because most people are stupid.

How can I show that time?

Because only REAL cars show the fuel injector throttle time in real
time! Other cars are for simpleton idiots who don't know anything about
driving. ; )

This is interestingly another case of how clueless the iKooks truly are.

FACT:
The tools that work on a beemer are NOT the same as those for a bimmer.

For the iKooks to conflate the two is classic!
a. The iKooks are uneducated and of low IQ
b. Hence, they know nothing about any topic
c. Yet - they _think_ they know everything....

And yet... they don't even know the _simplest_ things of this topic.

*The entire belief system of the iKook is completely imaginary!*

It's like when Chris claimed to have a PhD in the life sciences, and yet,
he didn't even know what the word "vehicle" meant in immunological terms.

When people are technically competent (i.e., not iKooks) descriptive words
mean something to those who understand and who have technical competency.

respective platforms are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT in almost every way....

I also own both a bimmer and a beemer, and the diagnostic tools &
interfaces there too are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

What works on a bimmer won't work in a beemer & vice versa, when it comes
to programming the various engine control modules and debugging the
transmission and recoding the transmission (ask me how I know this).

You can't program the ABS on the bimmer with the same ABS coding tools that
you use on the beemer, for example, and you MUST because every one goes bad
on specific models (just like the FSU and the CCV and the DISA goes bad).

Just as Chris would be laughed out of a meeting when he can't fathom the
immunological use of the word "vehicle" or "genome", you ignorant
uneducated iKooks would be laughed out of a meeting with BMW enthusiasts.

All of you are ignorant posers.

You don't own the adult cognitive skills to understand the difference

Alan Baker is a moron. Just like Snit. And Alan Browne. And you, JR.

If Alan claims to race beemers, he's a moron for not even knowing the first
thing about his fabrications since the term came about in racing circles.

Jesus Christ.
What kind of idiot 'racer' doesn't know that?

Hence, I wish you wouldn't quote that moron Alan Baker, Jolly Roger, but
now that you have, if he doesn't even know the difference between a bimmer
and a beemer, there's zero chance of his track fabrication being true.

*All of you iKooks are easily shown to be deceitful posers.*

Especially since the genesis of the bimmer/beemer etymology is specifically
for _racing_ for God's sake. The beemer came first in racing. Then the
bimmer. Every single BMW racer on the planet is aware of that fact.

The whole reason for the two terms was because of racing for God's sake.

I'm not even going to tell you how that came about as it happened in the
1950s, but the point is no racer on the planet wouldn't know the difference
because it's sa _racing term_ from the beginning (and always was).

Every one of you iKooks are inveterate liars.

There isn't an intelligent beemer racer on the planet who doesn't know
these two terms; because he'd be laughed out off the track if he didn't.

You iKooks don't know the simplest of the most basic of what you lie about,
just as Chris tried to fabricate that he had a PhD in the sciences and yet
he didn't know the first thing about basic immunology that you learn in the
first week of class.

Hi Jolly Roger,
I respond to adults differently than I do to sadistic iKooks, Jolly Roger.

For example, here's my response to badgolferman (an adult) moments ago
whom you also said you triggered by your sadistically juvenile posts, JR).

If you don't know already, I have two goals on this newsgroup, while I
normally have only one goal on all the other operating system groups.

1. I want to _help_ people and to _learn_ from them all that I can, and
2. Due to the sadistic nature of iKooks, I wish to _expose_ them
for exactly what they are.

That second goal is born of my dislike of people who are purposefully
unhelpful and at the same time, deceitful liars, and, combine those
horrid personality traits with an almost total lack of intelligence.

In summary, (a) it's great you're seeking data as all data is good data,
and (b) I tried to help where I could, and (c) the iKooks, sadly, do not.

Hi Jolly Roger,

I could say kudos to you for knowing the difference, and I'm happy that you
do know the difference, but the fact remains it's one of the most basic of
the simplest terms that people who race would know from the very start.]

It's like when Chris claimed to have a PhD in the life sciences and yet he
ridiculed the use of "vehicle" which is a basic immunological term.

And it's the same with nospam, who claims to be a developer and yet he's
constantly wrong about almost everything there is about writing code.

I don't claim to be a developer, for example, and yet I've published tested
source for more apps in this one thread than nospam in his entire life.
*My first "hello world" using Android Studio*

I shouldn't be "impressed" that you know the difference between a bimmer
and a beemer because it's basic - but - for an iKook - it's a good start.

Kudos to you for knowing.
I'm duly impressed an iKook actually knows a basic automotive racing term.

In terms of exposing the iKooks for the sadistic liars they are, adults
will note that nospam concentrated on the "hello.world.apk", where the fact
that nospam lied about being a developer shows in _those_ comments of his.

Everyone who has _ever_ written code knows the purpose of hello world.
Yet nospam clearly has no concept of why hello.world is the first app ever.

The fact nospam is completely ignorant of what hello.world accomplishes,
is yet another clear indicator that nospam has _never_ written a line of
code in his life.

Worse, he doesn't _comprehend_ that the cite provided by me published
something like a _dozen_ absolutely complete apps, each one correspondingly
increasing in what it did (which, again, is how developers learn coding).

The clear and obvious fact that nospam didn't comprehend _any_ of that, is
an absolutely clear indication nospam has never coded anything in his life.

Sorry, but that doesn't make it a racing term.

"brake marker"

"turn-in point"

"apex"

"track out"

Those are racing terms, because they're not used about normal street

"Beemer" is just what people call BMW motorcyles regardless of whether

In terms of exposing the iKooks for the sadistic liars they are,
adults will note that nospam concentrated on the "hello.world.apk",
where the fact that nospam lied about being a developer shows in
_those_ comments of his.

So which apps have you written that required you to utilize your vaunted
frame rate debugging tools, fool? We're all waiting for the answer!

Everyone who has _ever_ written code knows the purpose of hello world.
Yet nospam clearly has no concept of why hello.world is the first app ever.

This is just your inept attempt at deflecting from the fact that you
struggled for *weeks* (or was it *months*?) to get a simple Hello World
app up and running, which makes it very likely that you likely haven't
ever used your vaunted frame rate debugging tools. : )

The fact nospam is completely ignorant of what hello.world
accomplishes, is yet another clear indicator that nospam has _never_
written a line of code in his life.
Worse, he doesn't _comprehend_ that the cite provided by me published
something like a _dozen_ absolutely complete apps, each one
correspondingly increasing in what it did (which, again, is how
developers learn coding).
The clear and obvious fact that nospam didn't comprehend _any_ of
that, is an absolutely clear indication nospam has never coded
anything in his life.

The lady doth protest too much, me thinks. : )

He's also never raced in a BMW as he claims.

What's not surprising is that Alan Baker is who said he was a racer.

The Usenet record shows that Alan Baker *never* claimed he raced.

I clearly said I was NOT.

You clearly did, which is also on record right here in this thread. But

completely ignorant completely clueless

Great self-own! Keep up the good work!

he's clearly most proud of 'hello world'.

interestingly enough, by using these super-powerful frame rate

could it be that debugging is well beyond your abilities?

the reality is that mac and ios debugging tools are incredibly
comprehensive and extremely useful.

Lay off him, man. He's not a famous developer like you, with many

He probably wrote some fluff stuff for androids a hundred years ago.

Here's the very _first_ attempt I made, many years ago, nospam.

You saw the tutorials I wrote to help others produce their first ten

I'm well aware, nospam, that your entire life people told you that you are
stupid, and I'm sorry for you because you have that chip on your shoulder.

But you really should stop lying about your coding capability as I've
published already ten times more code to the community than you have.]

Look nospam, I get it you lied about coding as it's clear you've never
written even a single app in your entire life. You fabricated it.

But I wrote more than a dozen tutorials, every single step, every single
line of code, and I PUBLISHED them, and they're on the net for all to see.

Do I need to POINT to them just to prove what anyone can tell?

Here it is, nospam. A dozen tutorials PURPOSEFULLY HELPFULLY published:
*Report: My first "hello world" using Android Studio freeware on Windows*
<https://groups.google.com/g/comp.mobile.android/c/aW64zYeBtF0/m/DK2hrO7tAQAJ>

I told the truth. *You lied*.

Your whole life people have told you that you were stupid, nospam.
So you feel _desperate_ to lie to claim skills you clearly do not own.

At least I have a dozen apps published on the Android ng, with the src.
You have zero.

Each app was changed in ways that needed to be changed to work on the
hardware I used and with the emulators I used and with the phone I used.

All that is covered, in honest detail, in that thread nospam.
That thread has more coding than you've done in your entire life, nospam.

Bear in mind, I don't claim to be a developer; you do.
And yet, you've never once ever written a single line of code in your life.

While I've only published a dozen Android apps in my entire life, that's a
dozen more apps than YOU have ever published in your entire life nospam.

Please stop fabricating that you wrote apps.
It's a brazen unsubstantiated lie.

To the _adults_ on this newsgroup... I am NOT a coder but I played with
Android to the point that I published a dozen purposefully helpful noob
beginner's tutorials, starting with, you guessed it, "hello.world.apk".

What has nospam published to be purposefully helpful to the newsgroups?
HINT: Absolutely nothing.

You _hate_ that everyone knows you fabricated that you are a developer.

The fact is I never said I was a developer, and, in fact, I said quite the
opposite which was that I started with "hello.world.apk" and after about a
dozen apps, I wrote a TraderJoe.apk app which is my personal shopping app.
*Report: My first "hello world" using Android Studio freeware on Windows*
<https://groups.google.com/g/comp.mobile.android/c/aW64zYeBtF0/m/DK2hrO7tAQAJ>

I'm not fabricating that I'm not.

*You lied*

The reason you lied is your whole life everyone told you you're stupid.
You lied about being someone. Being a developer. An intelligent person.

Yet, you fabricated the entire story, nospam.

You think everyone doesn't know you fabricated being a developer, nospam?
It's what you uneducated iKooks do.

Just like Chris lied about having a PhD in the life sciences and yet he
didn't even realize how huge the virus genome is in terms of viral
particles, nor did he know the most basic of immunological terms.

Just like Alan Browne, Alan Baker & Jolly Roger lied about having even the

I'm not afraid of facts.

That's the difference between an educated person, Jolly Roger, and you.

No. I did NOT challenge him. That's your obsession.

I simply asked him. He demurred, saying it was a very niche item,
and gave no details. For all I know, it could be top secret apps
written for the government. He said it was not something in general
use. Not something we commoners could ever use. I do know that he
gave no link to the app store. No way for us to try out his app.

I accepted that.

And he gave no photos of his books. Maybe that's what set you off?

Don't worry. I've seen all your books, and I doubt he can match
them. And your intelligence is far above his. You are truly the
brightest person that ever wielded a telephone.

But you need to quit pulling stuff out of your ass and slinging it

The correct answer is never "you can't" but "not needed & nobody wants it."
Silly Google puts it in all their settings just to clutter up the user
interface, which is why an iPhone UI is so uncluttered and simple to use.

I occasionally watch YouTube videos about processing power / graphic
processing power. One metric that is used is FPS of the GPU (not screen
refresh per se).

ie: how often the CPU and GPU manage to do a complete frame re-fresh.

This is usually presented in the context of gaming but sometimes in the
context of video processing (editing).

Faster is of course better (this also branches out into overclocking,
advanced cooling schemes, etc.)

So there is possibly a connection to gaming on Android phones - but I
really don't know. And again - there - frame rates are performance
related, not screen refresh.

So why didn't I go delve into it further?

Exactly.
