pls dont kill me…

im just curious, in 2023 what exactly does ios have over android.

the only two things i can think of is the longer support and apple ecosystem.

otherwise androids just have far far more features than ios does.

can anyone help me understand if theres more to it or if thats it.

    Apple Watch works great to unlock iPhone and iPad, especially love it while skiing and I don’t have to touch my phone or take off my facemask,goggles and helmet!

      Yeah, but Apple being Apple the restriction it to Watch. I wear a Garmin. They should really let me specify any device.

        This is a very Apple move, prioritise Apple device sales over customer freedom, choice and enjoyment. They are notably bad at this compared to Samsung, Google etc

        Apple can provide cover for this restriction by touting their T2 security chip and underlying architecture that enables their chain-of-trust. It just so happens that they’re the only company that is authorized to use those chips, so it’s a very wink-and-a-nod excuse at best.
