Wild how we’re having conversations like “Android vs iPhone” or “Apple Maps vs Google Maps” in 2023. I thought this was settled ages ago.
Get what works for you. But for me personally, I’ll never choose a platform whose entire existence is predicated on collecting every ounce of user data it can ascertain. Android and Google Maps both suffer from the same problems: too busy, too impersonal, and too desperate.
I’m happy with my iPhone because it’s just me. I can make it become whatever phone I need in the moment thanks to Focus Modes controlling my Lock Screen and Home Screen. The apps and services I take advantage of show the relevant information I need based on that Focus. And let’s not even start on how polished Apple’s widget system is compared to Android.
I’ll happily argue iPhone and iOS is more personal, more customizable, and more private and secure than Android.
But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy an Android phone if you want one. 🤷♂️
