I’ve switched between android and iOS every couple of years since 2008. My recommendation: just keep using iOS.

The experience is more polished, it’s less difficult to figure out what to buy. You don’t have to worry about Google doing more insane shit, like harvesting and selling all your data, or getting rid of a product you’ve relied on for years. Not to mention my older iPhones work more reliably than my older Android phones do, so even from a support perspective Apple is the better choice.

My only gripe with iOS is that Safari is locked to the OS version you’ve installed, so when you stop receiving phone updates, your browser gets stuck in the past too.

@vinnymac @FundMECFSResearch @apple_enthusiast agreed mostly… #apple UI ( #iOS #macOS) is easy, their hardware just works, their multi-device compatibility is super convenient, and their in-house productivity suite (iWork) would be great but for the fact that when you’re collaborating with other people and businesses, especially in Europe, since it doesn’t save or import/export #ODF #opendocumentformat, you just can’t use it.
