I guess that's precisely because he is used to Android, not because iOS is more difficult.

Oh there are plenty of things that are way more difficult or impossible to do on iphone. An incomplete list:

1. Run a desktop window manager when connected to TV/monitor.

2. Share files using wifi direct or bluetooth.

3. Download torrents.

4. Switch between front and back cameras while recording a video.

5. Play fortnite.

6. Copy files to/from a flash drive.

7. Cast screen to TV.

8. Copy whatsapp chats from older phone.

> 6. Copy files to/from a flash drive.

It's possible (but yeah, it's been a problem for long).

Anyway:

> 4. Switch between front and back cameras while recording a video.

This is the only point that actually affects a typical user. The others are cherry-picked technological differences between the two platforms. They have nothing to do with usability, which is what people mean when they say iOS is simpler to use.

> 8. Copy whatsapp chats from older phone.

Yeah. If you kept the chats only locally (which you should).

> 5. Play fortnite.

Got me!

PS. I used Android for long and liked it. I just think iOS is somewhat nicer and safer to use for common people.
