For me what keeps me on iOS vs Android is app quality. No matter how many times I try to switch to Android completely, the lack of quality apps on the Play store always bums me out. The best apps on the App Store are unique to iOS, and Android apps always feel like an after thought, and many of the best iOS apps do not have Android counterparts. Apollo for reddit, CoPilot for money management, Flighty for flight tracking, Foreflight for aviation, Halide for camera, Things/Muse for notes and todos, Overcast/Castro for podcasts, Tweetbot/Twitterific twitter, even Spark for email use to be iOS only for years. I challenge you to compare the quality of iOS only vs Android only apps. The iOS dev community seems vibrant, and I wish I could say the same for Android. |
After 10+ years of making apps, the discussion with new clients is still the same here (EU/USA) every time:
Client: we want an app
Me: iOS or Android or both?
Client: both
Me: Ok, which one first?
Client: iOS, I have an iPhone 13 Pro max, make it work on that!
... app designed and built in close co-op with the client
Me: What do you think?
Client: Great! Publish it! Let me put it on my phone!
Me: shall we do the Android design? On which phone types should it work; premium or also mid or budget?
Client: Who cares, just do something and publish it whenever. Here is money, Bye!
