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.

    Software fit and finish. Any time I use android the apps and experience just seem a little more janky. iOS is where the money is for dev, and you can tell they put more care into it. Also, I think it is a more predictable platform for developers, so it’s easier to spend time polishing an app

    oh wow u mind elaborating on that, how different is the in app experience in iphone vs in android? like for example apps like youtube, insta, twitter and such. the only thing im aware of is, that in social media apps the in app cameras are better in iphone. but is there anything more than that?

      On my old Samsung, I just found everything and especially animations to be janky to the point where I went into the developer settings to speed them up

      Just take the Reddit app for example. I just had the Pixel 8 Pro along with my iPhone 15 Pro. On the Pixel, the scrolling on the Reddit app was very stuttery and janky. Incredibly annoying. On the iPhone it is very smooth. That is just one example.
