minds: w. Whether to go for an iOS or an Android?. Well, the Android vs iOS is an on-
going debate ever since. both of these platforms are providing with their best to the
users all around the world. There has always been a neck to neck competition between
both of these platforms as they have accounted for more than 99 percent of all the new
smartphones shipped in 2016 which took a rise to 99.7 percent in recent years. There
are many features that are present in Android and not in iOS and vice versa so it totally
depends on the users which one to go for. prior to their requirements.

The hardware choice

The hHardware of a smartphone plays a very important part and without mentioning it we can’t
compare iOS and Android. When it comes to choosing the correct hardware then we must know that
Apple has a few variations in the types of iPhones they produce like for example the regular ones, the
iPhone Plus, and the SE variants. but Android has a number of variations too, from plus, Samsung
Galaxy, S9, to the Honor and OnePlus which offers amazing flagship features to the users. However,
Apple and Android both provide a great competitiveness in the market.

Mobile Applications
There are a numbers of applications added oin the list of Play Store and App Store every day.
Traditionally, the applications that are found on the Apple App Store are also found on the Play Store.
Developers are likely to make hybrid applications as there are mixed users of both iOS and Android built
smartphones. It is observed that iOS has been a more lucrative platform for the developers that’s why
there it is more likely for an application to appear on the App Store first but this trend is changing
drastically as the Android market share continues to progress towards leading the App world.
Furthermore, it is estimated that the Play Store has a higher percentage of free application than the App
Store yet the best games still land on iOS first.

App Store/Play Store

The difficulty here lies where a platform has to organize millions of different applications regarding
entertainment, health and several others. Neither the Play Store nor App Store conducts this effectively.
With the arrival of iOS 11, we believeit is reported that the redesigning of App Store will improve has
improved seemingly and provides a better browsing experience to the users along with
recommendations but the Play Store is easier to use than iOS as it provides easy search option and the
applications can be queued or installed from the web browser on your PC or laptop. Buying applications
can now be done through TouchID on both iPhone and Android both.

Battery life and charging

Battery life plays an important role in a smartphone user’s life., Aanything could be compromised but
except the battery life and charging can’t as these two depend greatly on the usage of smartphones. iOS
has introduced a “low power mode” which turns your battery percentage yellow in color and drains less
battery while as Android has a bigger battery as well as power saving modes like Apple has. Coming over
to charging the smartphones, Apple has introduced wireless charging on their advanced iPhone 8, 8 plus
and iPhone X, which comparatively charges your phone faster. whereas Android also has the same
capabilities but the difference only lies when you have to separately buy an adaptor and other
accessories for an iPhone. Furthermore, the best thing that is present in Android and not in iOS is the
estimate of how much battery life you have left. This feature informs you and you can take measures
accordingly to save the drainage of battery anytime you want. Both the IPphone and Androidd both are
almost at the same in price yet but Android provides their customers with longer battery life and fast
chargers that are included in the box.

Customizing option
The customizing option has always been the strength of Android as you can easily change themes on
your phone, set up the layout the way you want, add widgets and shortcuts and even change the entire
user interface according to your desire using the launchers. Whereas, iOS has limited support for
widgets and you can’t freely customize your iPhone according to your wish. It limits you to add the
desired caller music on your favorites and does not provide a variety of customization options to your
smartphone. One major drawback with Aapple is that you need to use iTunes to download your favorite
songs but with Android, you can download it through any browser and it will successfully get added to
your phones music list.
