im not OP but when i switched to iphone for 6months i got a few features i was missing.
being able to disable internet access for a specific app. (no ads in mini Games)
USB C
being able to modify my homescreen as I want. (app drawer and widgets did help a lot, but i have good eyes, I want more apps in a folder)
ical in the default calendar
Multiuser
allways on Display (now its added, but back then it was not)
disable Bluetooth or wifi for good (not only for a day), in the quick access
2 SIM cards 1 business one private (i know E-sim but its a hassle, what if my iphone goes broken and I have to recieve calls? i do not have a spare E-sim Phone)
what annoyed me aswell was the phenomena, that allways after an update got released and I did not install it immediately, suddenly features started bugging and were fixed after Update, I smell conspiracy! (yes I restartet)
the whole, you do not own the device policy in general bothered me so much.
i felt like i was buying a service instead of a device. not for me. I want to own it and fix it and use it as I want. Not what Apple thinks is the way to scam me the most without it bothering me too much to switch.
But I guess, thats the apple way. I get it, I would do it the Same if I was them.
And to be fair. Android also has stuff that bothers me alot. here an honest list:
Device Update Support
Bug with opening the camera app
Annoying GCal app
screen cast only working 1 out of 3 Times
apps who sometimes drain the battery for no reason
and the annoying google news tab on some phones
