pls dont kill me.....

im just curious, in 2023 what exactly does ios have over android.

the only two things i can think of is the longer support and apple ecosystem.

otherwise androids just have far far more features than ios does.

can anyone help me understand if theres more to it or if thats it.

Face ID is superior than on any other android. When I switched to iPhone I was concerned how will I manage without fingerprint sensor, but this thing turned out to be waaaay better.
Although many people hate notification center, I actually really like it. You can read ALL messages someone sent to you without opening them, while on Android it shows just like the last 2-3. It helps a lot if you ask me.
Apps auto-update. You don’t get those boring notifications “Reddit and 20+ apps are ready to update” like on Android.
Everything is just a bit more fluent. You don’t have extra steps and questions for everything like on Android (eg. Do you want to open document with: Word, Google Docs, Google Drive…). iPhone just opens it straight away, and that’s what is important.
GPS and location services just work better than on my previous Galaxy S20.
On 15 you have noise cancellation for calls.
It’s better optimized, hence battery lasts longer.
Screen rotate sensor is WAAAAY better on iPhone. I never had a problem that screen randomly turned horizontally like on Samsung. It turns when it really needs to.

Notification center: No, I was able to see all the notifications, I think this was a problem with your phone only.
Apps auto-update: Ehm, no it was silent and done in the background as well?
Extra steps: Yeah, once you have to choose the app you want and never have to think about it again, on iPhone you have to do this extra step to get an other one you prefer than the one built in.

For the rest I pretty much agree at 100%.

I meant more in a sense if you have longer conversation with someone and they send you lets say 10 messages, on iPhone it shows all 10 when you expand them in notification center, Android shows only last few and cuts them.

As for auto-update, I must say it’s completely opposite for me. On S20 I have every day received notification “Something is ready to update” even though I had enabled auto-update on google store, but iPhone does it in the background, it never bothered me with that.
