It’s a nice place to be, living the boring OS life with nothing breaking, updating without ever factory resetting.
It means the OS is maturing, and has all th most necessary things. It is a good thing, indeed.

store credits/gift cards can expire in (I assume you are in) the USA? If so thats fucked up
Promotional credits can expire. Gift cards that have been purchased cannot
To me it seems like buying a $1,000 phone should count as purchasing the store credits. But no, I had to spend them on Chromecasts and stuff.
I think mine says it expires and I’m in Canada. I didn’t think they could expire though but not sure since I didn’t technically give them money so they might be able to, cause I know there are exceptions. Yep got an email in August saying use it soon as it expires Oct. 11 2023
One month… I get delaying it, but why not a week instead of a whole month when betas are supposedly over?
How surprising.
