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.

As an android user, I can say that one main advantage iOS has is better app design/optimization. Just the other day I was using the McDonald's app and a little survey window popped up and it looked like it was from 2008, I mean it was UGLY! Mismatched design ideology is actually fairly common in even popular modern apps on Android. With that being said, as someone who likes making apps, android has it's advantages. You can download the tools to make an app and start making Android APK files for free. This means you can make yourself an app and keep it on your phone permanently without paying for a developer account. I remember when I was doing iOS development you were only able to "test drive" the app for free and after like a week or two the app would delete itself.
