    I wouldn’t buy a car that could only drive on roads approved by the maker, so same goes for phone.

    Apple. I want nothing to do with a closed ecosystem and I loathe how central AppleID is to absolutely everything.

    I have fdroid and a few custom apks that wouldn’t be available on their store, so those would be hooped as well.

    I don’t like Apples attitude. And I want control of my own phone, not just whatever crumbs Apple will allow me.

    I’ve owned apple devices in the past. The thing I hate most is the ecosystem, it’s so limited and simple to the point of frustration. They are missing basic features and customization options. Apple has the worst settings menu of any device I’ve ever used. If that wasn’t bad enough the devices are incredibly over priced.

    The biggest issue is Apple and their closed ecosystem. I can modify, remove, or disable most of the apps and settings I don’t like on an Android phone. I can even load a different OS if I want. With Apple most of that isn’t even possible.

    iOS is trash. Simple as that, my parents have iPhones and I’m like ‘oh you can just do X’, then I go to look, get lost in menus, then find out the basic feature doesnt even exist. I can’t sideload apps, I can’t customise my UI, it’s just incredibly limiting. iPhones are good for calls, if you wanna do anything else you are better off with an Android.

      User error

      In all seriousness, the biggest benefit of apple products is that the user experience just does not change over time. They are very conservative with the changes they do make, even though they will hype them up as the next big revolution in computing. It just seems arcane to you because you aren’t used to it. Apple is great for old people because things stay the same forever

      Edit: I reread your comment and realized I completely misunderstood you. Yeah, apple is super behind and is lacking basic features for the reason I just mentioned. For a while you couldn’t even copy/paste on the iPhone. Really dumb imho. But the good thing is that things look the same forever, so you never have to be confused by your phone’s layout changing when you get a new phone.

    Hate how they handle photos. You can’t easily download your pictures like with Android you can just plug your phone into the computer and it becomes a hard drive you can mount and download them.

    I get a headache every time I have to help my mom with her iPhone or try to do something on my kid’s iPad. I know part of it is that I’m just very used to Android, but there’s no excuse for finding an app or setting being so tedious on iOS.
