1.App Drawer:
You
get a dedicated app drawer in Android smartphones, whereas in iPhone,
all apps remain on a homescreen. This approach gives more freedom and
efficiency to browse through the apps.
2. File Manager:
Android’s
visible file system gives more control over data in your smartphone.
You create folders, drag and drop them on computer. The open file system
makes it as efficient as using the file system on computer. Apple
doesn't give access to file system on iOS.
3. Customisation:
Android
has multiple customisation offerings. You get wide range of widgets,
themes and launcher. iPhone on the other hand has very limited
customization options, user just gets to customize parallax effect and
dynamic wallpapers.
4. Integrated Apps:
Android
gives wide API access to the developers. So developers built
applications that are highly integrated with the OS. Sharing the content
across apps is more seamless in Android as compared to iPhone. However,
in iOS8, iPhone has introduced Extensibility that makes this
integration possible.
5. Image Management:
Android
has better image management system. It automatically sorts and puts
screenshots, downloaded photos and pictures in separate folders. This is
very clustered in iPhone. iPhone puts everything in camera roll.
6. Notifications:
You
get informative icons of notifications on top of notification bar, it
is filled with icons, which gives reminder of what you have received. In
iOS, there are no such icons. You have to pull down the notification
bar every time to check for notifications.
7. Lockscreen:
Android
provides multiple screen locking options. You can personalise the
locking of screen in Android. It features pattern lock, pin lock, facial
recognition. While, iPhone has just pin lock; only latest iPhones
feature the fingerprint scanner.
8. Gmail:
The
default mailing app on Android is much more user friendly and real-time
in Android. The latest Inbox is quite revolutionary. In iOS, the mailing
app lacks many basic features. If an email consists a phone number, you
cannot even dial it on iPhone.
9. Google Keep:
Google
Keep is the best note taking app. It is limited to Android only. The
best part is, notes stay synced with Google Drive. You can use the
unofficial ‘GoKeep’ app for iPhone to access Keep on iOS.
10. External Storage:
External
storage comes very handy in case of sharing. Most Android phones
feature microSD support. You can expand your storage to any limit with
Android. Whereas on iPhone, you have to compromise with limited internal
storage that you get.
