Why You Should Switch To XOS Hummingbird ? / 6 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Update Your Android To Marshmallow 6.0 For Now / I Switched From Android To Iphone For Two Months. Here's What I Learned (2) (3) (4)

5 Reasons You Should Switch From Android To Ios by Giyerte(m): 3:51am On Oct 19, 2015
Android or iOS? It’s a question I’ve been asked
hundreds of times. Based on my experience using
both platforms on a daily basis, my typical
response has traditionally involved listing the pros
and cons of each, followed by, “There’s no right
answer, use what works best for you.” To be
honest, I don’t think I’ve ever truly answered the
question.
But over the past few months, I’ve found myself
pausing for a moment before reciting my usual
nonanswer. That’s because I’ve begun to think
that there’s no better time to switch from Android
to iOS.
Before you skip down to the Comments section to
call me every name in the Android Dictionary,
consider the five reasons why I say so.
1. Consistency
The Android ecosystem is complex: Google
provides the software to hardware manufacturers,
who in turn customize it, adding and removing
features in a bid to set their Product A apart from
their competitor’s Product B. But that
understandable desire to differentiate hurts
Android as a whole.
An Android user who has long used a Samsung
device but then switches to an HTC will find the
change confusing. Replace either manufacturer’s
name with another, and the same issue will still
apply. The app icons will be different, some
features will be missing, and new features will be
present. For the average consumer, it’s a jarring,
unpleasant experience.
The number of vendors creating that
fragmentation is truly astounding. According to
OpenSignal, maker of an Android app that tracks
cellular signal strength and quality, that app has
been installed on more than 24,000 different
Android devices this year, representing
nearly 1,300 different brands or manufacturers.
There’s a valid argument to be made about
providing consumers with choice, but those
numbers are ridiculous. And it’s bad for users,
who can never know exactly what kind of Android
experience they’re going to have when they buy a
new phone.
By comparison, when you pick up an iPhone —
whether it’s the original iPhone or the iPhone 6s
— you have a good general idea of what to
expect. By retaining control over the entire
experience, from software to hardware, Apple can
ensure that the user-experience remains
consistent. That familiarity not only makes it
easier for you to upgrade, it also means you can
spend less time teaching family members and
friends how to use their new devices every
holiday season.
2. Software updates
Google recently published an update to its
Android distribution report . As of the first week in
October, 23.5 percent of Android devices were
running Android Lollipop . At the time the report
was compiled, that was the most current version
of the mobile operating system. Since then,
however, Android 6.0 Marshmallow has been
released.
In other words, last year’s Android is only found
on a quarter of all Android devices. Android
KitKat — an operating system released in late
2013 — is still the most prevalent version, running
on 38.9 percent of Android devices.
In comparison, within days of iOS 9′s release,
more than 50 percent of iOS users had already
installed the newest version of Apple’s mobile
operating system. In other words, in a short
period of time Apple more than doubled the
installed base of last year’s Android update.
Vendors of Android hardware don’t always help
those adoption rates. For example, Motorola
recently announced it would not update the 2015
Moto E to Android 6.0 Marshmallow — despite the
phone being sold earlier this year on the promise
of future software updates.
The point being, Apple has evidently made iOS
easier to update than Android. You can be
confident that, as new features are added or
security issues patched in an iOS update, you’ll be
able to download and install that update almost
as soon as it’s available. You can also be
confident that, when you purchase an iPhone, it
will be compatible with new software updates for
at least two years, maybe longer.
3. Security
There’s no other way to say it: Android security is
a mess. Over the course of the past few months,
a series of vulnerabilities deep within the Android
OS have been revealed to the public. The bugs —
often referred to as “Stagefright vulnerabilities” —
give would-be hackers the ability to take
complete control of your Android device with as
little effort as sending you a picture message .
Another hack is possible by streaming a video or
song from a nefarious website. Nearly every
Android device is impacted by one or more
Stagefright bugs.
For its part, Google has announced plans to
release monthly security updates for its Nexus
line of devices, while at the same time releasing
the patches to its hardware partners for
implementation. But there’s no guarantee that the
updates really will roll out on a monthly basis.
Even HTC , an Android partner, is having doubts
about the feasibility of monthly updates.
Apple’s iOS is not immune to malware and hacks,
either. But the differentiator here is how quickly
Apple can correct the issue. Again, when Apple
releases a security update, that update is
available to everyone at the same time, not just a
small subset of owners in a staggered rollout.
I realize the likelihood of someone using a
Stagefright exploit on my Android phone is slim to
none. But I still appreciate the peace of mind I
get knowing my phone is secure.
4. Privacy
Apple has spent a lot time lately making it clear
that it respects its users’ privacy. The Cupertino
company even created a website where it details
the steps it takes to protect your private
information.
Google, on the other hand, is constantly walking a
privacy tightrope. Remember, this is a company
that makes its money from serving ads. The
better an ad targets a user, the more that ad is
worth. To better target users, Google needs to
use the information we willingly — but sometimes
unknowingly — provide the company.
Take, for example, Google’s recent announcement
in which it revealed a method for online retailers
to track your activity across the Internet using
your email address. That’s right: Your email
address is now a tracking mechanism. But unless
you make a point of keeping up on the various
ways Google is using your information, you might
never know it.
As the number of database breaches of major
websites increases, so does my awareness of just
how much information a company is storing
about me. I’d rather do business with a company
that’s clear upfront about the kind and extent of
personal information it stores.
5. Easy transition
Apple is actively working to make the process of
switching from Android to iOS as easy as
possible. Reading the reviews for the company’s
new Move to iOS app, you might think it’s a dud.
But don’t be fooled by the overzealous Android
loyalists: When it comes to transferring contacts,
messages, photos, videos, mail accounts, and
calendars from your old Android device to an
iPhone, this app gets the job done.
Furthermore, the process of switching is easier
than ever thanks to the ubiquity of apps on both
platforms. The days of an app being available on
iOS first, only to follow on Android months or
years later, are numbered. Odds are that, if you
use and love an app on Android, it’ll be available
on iOS too.
The bottom line
Notice that I haven’t said a thing about how
delightful the new iPhone 6s is to use. Sure, I
think it’s stronger and faster and has a better
camera than last year’s model, while still
providing the same familiar experience. But I’m
just talking about the software platform itself.
And this isn’t to say that Android is the worst
smartphone platform on the planet. There are a
lot of good ideas found throughout the system.
The ability to set default apps is one feature I
desperately wish Apple would incorporate into
iOS. Google’s new Now on Tap feature in
Marshmallow is impressive, if not downright fun
to use. (That’s assuming you’re lucky enough to
own a Nexus device and have received the update
over the past couple of weeks; only one of my
two Nexus devices have updated so far.)
I’ll continue using both platforms on a regular
basis — but I have to for my job. If I was forced
to pick just one, for me or for someone randomly
soliciting my advice, the choice has never been
more clear: I’d choose iOS.

From the way you're talking, uve not even used an iphone before. Everything you are saying, someone told you, or you just heard.

How. Can you say iphone data comsumption is r times andriod own?? Even the most die hard android fan knows that android consumes data 22 times than ios!!!

You don't even know what you're saying by calling itunes app store 'playstore', then you went futher to say 'you can't find the latest things there'. I swear you funny pass seyilaw
Cos even Google own 'hangouts app' got updates on iphone first weeks before android.


Just agree, you are a hutsling human who can't afford to buy data to download your apps or even legally pay for the apps on app store as a resposible person, and not steal them from the net as a thief, or even pay for abulm via itunes as a good citizen, and not download them free via websites as a criminal.
Talk about your self, and not nigerians! Cos truly the 90% of nigerians you are talking about wants to buy an iphone, but can't afford it!

And sharing via bluetooth to other phones makes the iphone prone to malware, its like have raw sex with a stranger, it makes you prone to hiv.

Apart from that, xenda is on ios.
Thank.

Na its not most, its just 2! The 2 latest ones with the largest memories. But have you ever considered what you are paying for?

If I buy samsung galaxy s6 edge today 180k (that's the price). I'm paying for the phone only, cos android is free, and phone support of two years, after those 2 years, no more updates or support of what ever.

But if I buy an iphone of let's say 200k, i pay for the phone and the operating system (ios), after 5 years I can still be using my phone, cos it would get best support and updates regularly, apple can push an update 2 weeks after droping one update to fix an issue on their old model phone. And their phones has better perfomance than 95% of the phones in the market, even with what you consider low specs, this has shown the 'hard work' apple has put into optimising the phone to have little problems compare to other phones. Trust me, iphone might not have the best features but it has the least issues. Its not like they are stingy, they consider any feature and check whether it would cause any sort of problems or not. Now tell me why their phones won't be expensive? Cos even when they made a lower physical specs phone (5c) it was still expensive.

Threads like this should just stop. There are millions of it already. At the bolded, yes Apple supports its old phone with new OS but what happens afterwards? It becomes unstable and lags like shit. iPhone 5 lags on iOS 8. iPhone 6 lags on iOS9. I prefer Android's approach cos it makes the hardware and software work hand in hand for those two years.

Besides there are ROM's which can allows you to tweak your phones and get on the newest OS version. Regarding performance, yes it outperforms the midrange and low ends but not the flapships. So u should know what you are saying.

I know what I'm saying! And you are wrong! I've use iphone 4s with ios8 and it did not lag anything, at all! Iphone outperforms some most flagships! Example lg g3!

Why would I have to go thru the stress of rooting, flashing and installing one stupid custom rom from one devloper and at then end of the day two or three features stops working just because I wan update my phone.

When looking for custom you would always see, "what works" and "what does not work"

It is an option and not from the OEM, is your choice if you choose to flash it. My statement is, it is there for those that want to.

Sure you know what you are saying. Those at macrumors, theverge who are chronic iFans don't knw what they are saying. Do you know the number of iOS 8 versions Apple released all because of one problem or another? You see your life, in 2015 you are talking about last year flagship when LG already has two new flagships
I've updated the last quote, and I was comparing iphone 6 to g3, if I wanted to compare g4, I would had placed it agaist iphone 6s which still out perfoms the g4

If you aren't satisfied with their two year old cycle update system, charge them to court. Why do Apple support their old phones with new OS versions when they know it will make it unstable, lag and problematic?

Now you see whos holding the crown despite it been on older OS version and rendering on QHD. If iPhone 6s plus was added, it would have lagged behind iPhone 6s.

Na its not most, its just 2! The 2 latest ones with the largest memories. But have you ever considered what you are paying for?

If I buy samsung galaxy s6 edge today 180k (that's the price). I'm paying for the phone only, cos android is free, and phone support of two years, after those 2 years, no more updates or support of what ever.

But if I buy an iphone of let's say 200k, i pay for the phone and the operating system (ios), after 5 years I can still be using my phone, cos it would get best support and updates regularly, apple can push an update 2 weeks after droping one update to fix an issue on their old model phone. And their phones has better perfomance than 95% of the phones in the market, even with what you consider low specs, this has shown the 'hard work' apple has put into optimising the phone to have little problems compare to other phones. Trust me, iphone might not have the best features but it has the least issues. Its not like they are stingy, they consider any feature and check whether it would cause any sort of problems or not. Now tell me why their phones won't be expensive? Cos even when they made a lower physical specs phone (5c) it was still expensive.
ok sir

Again, apple updates don't make their phone problematic, you've never expirenced it, cos uve not used 1! Apple would always push updates to fix issues and would no make an os that can run smoothly or the old models! This is the diffrence btw android and ios! Stop using andriod sense to judge iphone cos on the other hand its new updates that brings more problems to older andriod phones, this this is the reason oem never update flagships older than two years, andd also because of the nature of android os, and modification, time and resourecs that they lack! This is why apple is the best phone maker, even if they don't make they make the best phone. The best phone to me is s6, and samsung is one of those companies begining to think like apple, this is also why they ditch sd card slot and removeable battreies on their latest phones.

From the way you're talking, uve not even used an iphone before. Everything you are saying, someone told you, or you just heard.

How. Can you say iphone data comsumption is r times andriod own?? Even the most die hard android fan knows that android consumes data 22 times than ios!!!

You don't even know what you're saying by calling itunes app store 'playstore', then you went futher to say 'you can't find the latest things there'. I swear you funny pass seyilaw
Cos even Google own 'hangouts app' got updates on iphone first weeks before android.


Just agree, you are a hutsling human who can't afford to buy data to download your apps or even legally pay for the apps on app store as a resposible person, and not steal them from the net as a thief, or even pay for abulm via itunes as a good citizen, and not download them free via websites as a criminal.
Talk about your self, and not nigerians! Cos truly the 90% of nigerians you are talking about wants to buy an iphone, but can't afford it!

And sharing via bluetooth to other phones makes the iphone prone to malware, its like have raw sex with a stranger, it makes you prone to hiv.

Apart from that, xenda is on ios.
