Apple’s iOS is, sorry was the best mobile operating system. It is the growth of its competitor Android which led me to use the verb ‘was’ here. Android is no.1 mobile operating system now. It has stolen this tag from Apple and now not going to leave this tag at all. Apple’s iPhone is always rich in features and they get the good sales as well, but they are not able to reach the brand power of Android smartphones. What are the features that all other smart phones lack as compare to Android. Well, I took the time to write on some basic reasons for this. So let’s have a look on it.
1. Desktop
The first problem starts right from the desktop. Apple’s iPhone don’t allow you to add the app icons on your home screen. But in Android you are free to use any icon on home screen to have fast and single touch access to the apps, you mostly use.
2. App Store
Both the OS have their own app stores. Apple had its own store to get the apps names iTunes while Android has with the name of Google Play. Both the app stores are having millions of apps in different categories. Still the Android app store is better than that of iTunes. The reason behind this is mobile user behavior. Most mobile users are not in the mood to spend money on apps and they want only free apps. iTunes has less no. of free apps as compared to Google Play. This thing makes the Google Play a better place to get apps and make their product, Android, better than others.
3. Browsing Experience
Now all mobile users buy mobiles by giving preference to this feature. The Android browser is far better than the browsers that you get with iPhone of Window mobile. The good in built browser of Android saves the time of its users to search of any other third party browser.
4. Open Source
Yes this is something creates a big margin between Android and other smart phones. The Android is best due to versatility of apps. The apps are not created by Android employees only. It is open source platform and even you are welcome to create apps for Android. Not any other OS provides this service. They believe in their own team of specialists. This makes their system to stay behind from down earth Google mobile OS, Google Play.
5. PC Connections
Having a smart phone with you, many times you need to connect it with PC. Android is the king in this field as well. Just connect the USB cable of your Android to the PC and you are ready to access the sdCard of your smart phone. But for other operating systems you need to have special software installed on your system. It becomes irritating when you are on your friend’s system and he/she does not have that particular software installed on their system.
