Why do YOU use iPhone? (alien.top)

I’m curious - why do you pick iPhone compared to other smartphone brands? (Google Pixel, Samsung, OnePlus, etc.)

(I’m also going to be asking in other phone subs, hope this survey goes well)

The customization thing gets a lot of Android users worked up against iPhone. We're not teens anymore. I don't have the time or desire to go crazy with phone OS customization and use whacky launchers to go on top of whatever skin this Android phone is. iPhone's customization is perfectly fine and doesn't incur tons of software bloat to achieve..

Customisation isn't limited to whacky launchers and skins. There are many use cases. Does the iPhone come with native app lock? Dual apps? I don't know how can they not have an app lock if they supposedly care about privacy so much.

Truthfully I don’t think I’m familiar with those features. I’ve used flagship Galaxy phones since 2012 and haven’t used dual apps or app lock. If you have a use-case for them that’s good, I just haven’t.

One big thing I miss from Android is having a secure password protected folder for pics and stuff
