People had fun so naturally Apple removed it. That's usually how it goes with iOS.
Yeah lol and they keep games with ads left and right on the store but remove cool stuff like that
That is comunism
Somebody should tell them that browsers run non-Apple reviewed code too, like JS, they'll be forced to remove Safari and all browsers from iOS to comply with their own rules!
@@gandalfwiz20007 No, it's the exact opposite actually. That's capitalism.
@@MegaMJoker I call it legally stealing
There was a time that software manufacturers tried to make their software as functional and versatile as possible. During the last decade this has totally changed to a policy to restrict as much a possible. Adding functionality is trivial, but all effort is put in allowing exactly what the manufacturers wants and restrict everything else. This it true for Windows and Apple. I am happy that Linux still adheres to the policy to enable as much as possible.
I still use for graphic editing iPhoto Plus 4 which was originally for Win95. It came with a scanner for free. Later versions Ulead released took out most of the features unless you paid the premium price. Except for layers it has most of the stuff basic Photoshop has but loads instantly on starting.
just apple*
Computers back then were built by the geeks for the geeks.
Well... The thing I should say is that the world is already too restrictive with it's politics, economy, wars, sanctions and so on that I hate when software is being restricted. Dude, it's just 1s and 0s on the piece of chip initially owned by you!
The difference is that power users can still pretty easily modify Windows. Not true for Apple at all
Michael…you have a great voice for these kind of videos. This was hilarious and I loved your persistence in not giving up
Thanks so much!
I recall once just displaying an image of the Windows 3.1 splash screen on a Windows Phone (back when those were very briefly a thing) and it was enough to fool some co-workers into thinking it was a hung installation.
We had dosbox and other stuff back then too. It ran like $hite, but it did run. Even Epoc had them, not fun to run on a psion 5 lol
Microsoft actually released a working version of DOS and Win3.11 for Windows Phone 8/8.1 as an April Fools around 2015 iirc. I had it on my Lumia 1520 and yes, it all seemed to work. Right down to calling/texting using the DOS prompt!
This was so fun watching you do this! It must have cost you over $60.00 and you do it for us. Thank you for the entertainment, Michael. Really. You are underrated and deserve more subs! So this is a sub for you! ❤
Thanks so much for subscribing!
@@MichaelMJD Yeah,... but yes!
yeah, $69. Nice 😉
Two $30 dongles, two floppy drives, and a copy of windows. That does add up to over 60, great maths captain obvious
@@MichaelMJD you are amazing, this is not a question
I just got this video shown in my feed. I have no idea how but I watched this entire video on something I have no clue on and no special interest in. ADHD to thank. I really like how each problem along the way is shown and explained and also the solution is very simply and immediately highlighted. I just love we all watch you complete something we think 'would be cool to do' 👌🏻👌🏻
This is just a mjd instant classic. When everything goes wrong but end up successfully well
Lol
At this point everything going wrong isnt even a spoiler, you just expect it.
Task Failed Successfully!
Yep
This is a certified mjd classic
All I can say is, as a person who started on a homebrew 6502 system and worked my way thru a variety of DOS versions on PCs, this is totally amazing!!! What a fantastic project!
These comments indicate the OP has installed Windows 3.1 on an iPhone!! The humanity!! Really? Is there a name for this type of hobby? I must admit I have a penchant for obscure GUI operating systems... so I must be honest... you reckon you could whack OS/2 or AmigaDOS on that sucka? Also, if this is all true, sorry I can't bear to watch it, I will though, surely the only sane thing to do is put Linux on there? :)
Started on a vic20 then c64
Was amazed by a c64 emulator on an amiga
Today well so many old OSs running on our small devices

So
@@suprememasteroftheuniverse Apple used to be good until they released the Iphone 4. I'd say this is when Apple started falling down
Makes me feel so old and proud that I still have all 3 of my super drives and that they are still of use after so long. Keep up the great work.
As I remember, back in the day we used to copy the contents of all the disks in one folder and then type Setup.. it won’t ask for disks. I don’t recall if we used to put the contents of each disk in folders or just all of them in one folder though.. man you brought me back 30 years 🥲
Yeah, that was an option but I wanted to stick to using the disks during the install process if I could. Was really glad to actually get it working!
@@MichaelMJD great work, love your channel and the nostalgic stuff 👏🏻
@@MichaelMJD your awsome good vid
@@gdtd4ever829 wit/2 can’t spell a verb or punctuate.
@@alysdexia ok, so..?
man! that paint tool bar, the tool icons, brought so many old memories, thank you!
The most amazing part of the video is that floppy disks that are over 25 years old still work just fine. I seem to remember hearing they would last 5-10 years. All six of them beat the year range (well, five because he didn't actually use the sixth disk).
i imagine that estimate is more for 'everyday use' floppies. unless your me, you probably dont have to reinstall your os/oe everyday.
yeah my old 100mb zip drive still works with windows today
Floppy disks back then were simply higher quality. Most people remember them being crap because the last few batches made between 2007-2010ish were complete landfill out of the box.
Hell, the US military still uses floppies to store launch codes
@@TheRedCap Sadly they retired the old stuff in 2019 and went all solid state. Up to that point, however, they were using IBM Series/1s and 8" floppies (which I find strangely badass). 👍
I remember that the factory recorded floppies were of better quality, like studio cassette albums didn't deteriorate much with use, especially if stored in their cases and not just left around. A few years ago I found a box of floppies with factory DOS programs. Each one was stored in it's own plastic case and the cases held in a case with 60 slots. Mostly obsolete business software, but there were 11 good games. Still have some of them running in Dosbox. Never had a problem with Windows reading the factory floppies, but about 20 of them were recorded personal discs and Windows was not able to read them.
I have an older iPad that still works fine. I haven't played games like Jazz Jackrabbit in a long time. 😆 I even have a BT mouse and kb that should work fine. I wonder if I can find a BT Driver for DOS?
I read the title and was very shocked that this was even possible.

@@wqatch I used to have an Android phone, its security is a joke xD
Jailbreak coming in clutch
Great to see your tenacity and the troubleshooting process. Well done, an impressive feat!
I can't even believe you were able to do this! Windows 3.1 was the first OS I used as far back as 1992. It seemed so modern at the time, until Windows 95 came out. I love this retro stuff, being able to put that on an iPhone 11 is very COOL!
Had a good laugh while MJD covered the history of this app. I remember a year or two ago Apple couldn’t stop running ads about how “oh iPad is a real computer, get rid of your computer ‘cause iPads are the future!”
Meanwhile we won’t let you run a sandboxed application that uses official Apple APIs and requires that you supply all your own files.
Gotta say a little prayer to OSS and indie developers, ‘cause just imagine the computing hellscape we’d be in without them.
You should keep an iPhone and Android in a glass sales display case with every OS imaginable and post up a chart of what adapters are required to excavate these dinosaurs! I know it's terrible, but, guess who isn't collecting hardware and software from years ago.

Absolutely brilliant, Michael MJD, how you manage to bypass one silly Apple limitation after another, with style!

wow such an original and useful comment! “i hAtE aPpLe”
Back in the day, I supported Windows. With any DOS or Windows application, including Windows itself, you ALWAYS choose custom setup, even with native hardware. BTW, the application that sold Windows 3.1 was Solitaire. I had several customers tell me that when they saw Solitaire running, they went out and bought Windows.
In fact, the game was carried on through the whole Windows series after 29 years, that long. Even heck Windows 11 had Solitaire built into it, albeit a modern version.
Another favorite was Windows NT Pinball. Came with NT but I could copy it on disc and it ran on Win 95 and 98. It was a really good gzme.
@@rjonboy7608 Absolutely.
@@rjonboy7608 it was also on ms plus.
And including the Weezer Buddy Holly song with Win95 made it a sleeper classic hit that has lasted the test of time.
Im impressed with how smooth it is after installed
I absolutely LOVED the beginning, beautiful work
MJD ranting about overpriced Apple cables makes my day.
It's really nice to see an OS installed on the device that has much greater capability and specs than their original device meant for.
Terrible english, but i get you :)
It's crazy to think that this OS was created at a time when mobile devices, let alone the internet was just in its infancy.
@@vishnumenon6541 Indeed im also both suprised and terrified of how far our technology has been perfected. Who knows if we can install Windows 95 on our body lol

Man, that tip to restore previous purchases was a great find. I now have it on my phone again! I remember all the hoops with him signing me up as a beta tester to get the file sharing, so yeah. Windows 3.1 will be installed!
Michael MJD is the only person that doesn't lie or trick it's viewers during an advertisements and I respect that
When people ask me why Michael MJD is my favourite youtuber I'm going to show them this video!
I agree with that
for sure!!
Take the _u_ out crumpet! (Is that racist? Sorry if it is lol! Supposed to be a joke! 😂😂)
@@RamseySchaefer Maybe you should add the _u_ back in, not the other way around. British English came first. 😋
@@archgirl American English fixed the British English mistakes.
You could also copy all the disks to a directory on your dosbox ‘C’ drive and run the setup from there. No need to create all the mount points. Windows 3.1 will install in a matter of seconds. I’ve done this before (on a regular PC). It’s also handy because if you make system changes that require the disks it’ll remember the install path and you don’t need to remount the disks.
Yeah I was wondering why he didn't just dump all the files into one directory. But I think he wanted to recreate the original install method as much as possible.
oh WoW i have not seen windows 3.1 in forever and HERE you install it on an APPLE IPHONE of all things , i am blown away ...thanks for this video
Dude that’s insane I would have never thought this would work bravo
Playing with a USB converter like this on a phone is so much fun. With a USB splitter, I was able to use a mouse and keyboard on my Android phone!
Okay, I gotta try that... had no luck with bluetooth keyboard.
@@Reziac Bluetooth keyboards should 100 % work with Androids devices.
@@PuffyRainbowCloud yeah
Android is just a fork of linux, it supports mouse and keyboard input natively. The only reason it wouldn't work is if it got removed by the specific phone manufacturer.
@@poipoi300 only if the bluetooth keyboard supports the HID protocol. There are various ‘bluetooth’ keyboards out there which require their own usb-dongle. I doubt they’re using HID.
Impressive that you managed to find a way to get it working, despite all of Apple's anti-consumer efforts!
It continues to boggle my mind just how far Apple will go to try and prevent users from having any control or access to the devices they pay for.
Yeah I can't go back to ios with all the limitations pretending to be for safety. It almost feels insulting to use their os at this point.
@@RisingRevengeance "Trust us! It's for your own good."
that's why I'll never use a jailed iOS device
That is why I have jailbroken even iDevice I've ever owned
Why the whole curated "app store" concept is a very bad idea, even if it does make it safer for less tech savvy users.
Thanks for telling me about the Nano pro! I got a lavender color and it's delivering right before my birthday!
the fact that you can close the app and go back to iOS is just amazing. great video!

@@andrewn8002 I remember hearing that term used for installing MS on old MacBook laptops back in the mid 2010s. I am glad that spirit is still alive, even though Linux is better than Microsoft. They should try installing Ubuntu on an iPhone. :)
And accurate.
Great video as always! I remember having the iDOS app that had those free DOS games on my iPhone a few years ago. Never knew that it'd end up becoming kind of a "rare" app nowadays.
This was an interesting and educating video the music's nice as well i still think this guy's underrated and deserves way more views and subscribers.
This was hilarious 😂 thanks for all your entertaining nostalgic videos!
I wonder if Apple would change their mind again. This year iSH finally got pushed to the app store (after the developer and a few other made a bunch of noise on social media and basically lobbied Apple). iSH literally lets you run x86 Linux executables and it even has a package manager, so I don't see why iDOS can't be allowed again.
I don’t think the iDOS dev had enough power and time to argue with Apple who more often than not don’t bother about feedback unless the feedback goes inline with what they want to do.
Oh, now that is interesting.... Michael could do us a video on that!
Just don't buy Apple. Nobody should be playing their stupid game of walled gardens.
You can still get idos if you sideload it
@@Michael-zf1ko Well if i just like apple products and just want to use it as a normal phone, why can't i?
This kind of content gives me hope for the future. So many mfr's try to lock down their devices, but as MJD showed, there is always a workaround.
One of the handy things I found many moons ago was a Gateway install CD for WIn3.11. No more bloody floppies!
Thank you so much. Brings back so many happy memories. I started work in 1987 writing software for Windows 2.03, and have been a devoted fan of Windows ever since.
You definitely rolled the "install x on y" tech UA-camr dice. And this one was great actually thanks I enjoyed it
I used to copy all the disks to a single directory on my hdd then install from there. Installation was way faster, and I had all the files incase I needed them later. This is seriously convoluted. But awesome job for your perseverance.
Didn’t expect that i am going to be that excited seeing that blue setup screen. Good ol days.

Totally cool video. It’s welding the past and current together. Neato.
I just remember back in the day I would copy the files from the floppy disks to a directory and then install off the directory to C:\WINDOWS. Made installation so much easier and faster! But to see Windows 3.x installed on an iPhone.. that's hilarious and I LOVE IT! :D
I think a bonus we all wished we could see would be to see just how fast the cards on solitare dance down the screen when you win a game. You know the old "Processor speed Test"
Had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Congratulations, you just combined two genres: instructional videos and thrillers.
I work in IT and I used program manager on windows 11. My custom apps work when using batch files, icons are a bit tricky to get, using resource hacker. I put all my software which require elevation with admin credentials, then I run program manager as that user account. So eveything is automatically elevated. I love the nostalgic design
I just had a blast running 3.1 on my android recently. I used it to extract the wallpapers from Christmas for windows. To make wrapping paper.

I remember the days of Windows 3.X. Every "Black Friday" (Day after Thanksgiving) my wife would go shopping with her BFF and I would spend the day backing up the computer and
reinstalling Windows 3.X fresh armed with movies and junk food. You did this at least once a year if you wanted your computer to run without issue.
Wow! What a great job! When there are option to copy the content of the floppy drive to the phone and run setup from there, you want to make it more interesting. I really shocked when you could do that. And with all the problems you run into, you always get to fix it and continue the process. Well, its not a Michael MJD video without something goes wrong and that whats make your video unique. Great job Michael.👍👍👍
That... Was.... Amazing dude.. Good job mate:)
I have learned (thanks to Micheal) that if something is stupid but it works, it is not stupid. I also learned that never settle always push to see what you can do to keep your projects going.
I love how half the video is just explaining how to get a floppy disk to be read on the iphone lol. Such a MJD video
You're simply the best and every new video from you is a real surprise, I love how you always are the first one on UA-cam to make such type of videos! By the ways, are you going to update to Windows 11 when it releases next week? Would love to see something like a comparison between the first and final Windows 11 release. :P
I don't think he can, since he has an i7-7700k, which doesn't support Windows 11. Never thought I'd see a 7700k on the incompatible list. Even running a VM of Windows 11 might not work. (All it says is that TPM 2.0 is required both on the host as well as the VM.)
The only thing he can do at this point is upgrade his computer to run Windows 11.
Thank you for the quality content, good sir.

Can we just talk about the 40 dollar dongle and how it's litterally more expensive than a fast charger
Well, it's Apple so...
The EU is going to force Apple to use USB C as a charge port.
Won't be surprised if Apple is going to get rid of the charge port, and sell you charger, cable and wireless charging pad separately.
Create a problem, sell the solution.
@@timhartherz5652 My wife just got an iPhone 13 and it's better than that, they give you a USB C charger cable only. What a joke.
@@seththebeatmxchine The biggest joke is Apple was pushing USB-C the hardest, to the point where it is the ONLY port available on their Laptops, if you want to attach anything which isn't USB-C, like a Monitor for example, you'll need an extra special apple dongle.
The Lightning port had its benefits, but it has been superseded by USB-C in every way.
They only keeping it on their phones because it is a proprietary standard, and everyone making accessories for it has to pay license fees.
I'm not surprised they give you a charge cable which doesn't fit most fast charge adapters on the Market, since most of them still use the USB-A Port as outlet, and the more widespread USB-A to USB-C cable to connect to the phones.
@@seththebeatmxchine They announced removing charging bricks from the box starting from the iPhone 12 last year, which is why only a cable is included. They say it’s because of environmental reasons. Samsung and Google already followed with the no charging brick box after Apple did.
@@achuuuooooosuu Yeah I wouldn't know when they announce anything that not my scene. And it doesn't make a difference. It's just a way to make more money. By not giving you a charger they save tens of millions of not hundreds of millions in the long run but not having to provide one in box, make more money by offering a separate charger, AND is it's all under the guise of "protecting the environment". And they still make the brick that would be offered just sold separately to make more money. It's an image thing, it's marketing. It's a perfect ploy. Believe you me, these companies don't give one single fuck about the environment. These are the same companies that have fucking 12 y.o assembling their phones. And the other companies only followed suit because now they can get away with it because Apple's doing it and they get to save millions too. It's a crock of shit.
I love the aesthetic of that zip drive, wish they still made gear like that
Excellent. I have an old iPad and a galaxy tablet. I would love to put XP on one (still have the install disc) and Win 3.11 on the other. I've been using the Galaxy as an MP3 server with a BT speaker in my bedroom. It's battery runs down quickly but it works fine plugged in.
This will be a great project to keep me busy during this winter.
I'm in awe of what you seem to be able to get off eBay over there. Here in Australia it just seems like new things, cheap or expensive, or a very limited amount of second hand items.
Also I guess if the floppy disk solution didn't work, you could always copy all of them into a a folder within a USB drive and install from there.
this is the most michael mjd video i have ever watched. great video as always michael 😄❤️
Ok, this was useful. Mainly useful to a learning point.
You go into an alien ship, sit in the pilot's seat, and without having any idea of how it works, you fly away!!! i love it!! Thank you!
Back in the day, what I usually do is to copy all the contents of the floppy to a single folder, and then run the (custom) setup. So much more quick than change floppy drives in the setup runtime.
Until you got an installer that watched for the changing of a floppy and had no way of otherwise continuing the installation...
Nice that you are experimenting with screen capture. keep up the good work as always.
wow that is simply amazing great job man

Screw the 73 people who disliked this (seriously, UA-cam, what?!) this is one of your best videos to date, along with the Compaq Portable video.
I’m one of them. It’s a pointless exercise, as is the documenting it.
This video was sitting in my Watch later list, I saw this was 26 minutes and wasn't sure I'd watch it now, so i wanted to watch at least the beginning to decide.
Let's go.
I hardly understand even a quarter of this but I love the I’m going to make this work no matter what energy :)
The amount of dedication in this video to get those floppy disks to read on an iPhone. Kudos man you earned that like and sub, personally I would of just hooked it up to a pc extracted the files using the floppy drive, and move all the files on a usb stick and installed windows via the usb.

Why? He opened the product and they do what they claim to do. If people want to experiment, that’s fine, but not to the cost of others (vendor).
Except the rest of the modern world gives you the same product but nearly double the capability at half the cost. Yet Apple sheep will still defend Apple. No one remembers that Apple at one point gave the most advanced features in its phones. Currently they are one generation behind other manufacturers. And still the highest cost.

The Superdisk was a cheap alternative to CD in the beginning of the 2000s when a CD burner was expensive.
Basically it is similar than Zip disk expect the super disk floppy has the size of the 3'5 standard floppy disk.
Thanks to that, the Superdisk drive is able to read and write both disks: specific Superdisk of 120Mo and standard 1.4 3'5 floppy disks.
The model shown in the video is the one specifically made for the first ten of iMac in 1998.
At that time that was a great device. Of course today it is nothing but a piece of electronic museum but I am happy to have one at home.
My first home pc as a kid was 3.1. this was cool.
What an action-packed video :)
Have you considered changing disks volume names so they're all the same? In theory it could work.
I remember when zip disk came out, how amazing it was to put a 'massive' 100MB on a disk.
And at that time, I used to think, with the advancements of video compression we'll fit a whole movie in there. Fast forward and I seen PDFs, PSDs and even JPEGs(!) bigger than that. All formats that existed since that time, now that I think about it...
