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.

Well Android devices are inherently fragmented while Apple employs a unified experience or central voice to their operating system.

I was one of those pro Android debaters up until 2018 when my wife convinced me to try Apple for a month. After about two weeks of customization withdrawal I was absolutely hooked to IOS. IOS just feels like a more polished experience over Android while Android feels like they’re too many competing perspectives on what the operating system should be.

I also haven’t used a Google app since 2019 including maps and the search engine.

For the first time I realized that it’s not about the best hardware but about the user experience and I find myself using my Apple phone far more thanI ever did an Android.
