1. Strictened of application in the Store.
The greatest difference between both stores is that all applications are going to be checked by Apple without exceptions. The application has to meet specific requirements and guidelines for apps by Apple. Therefore the apps must not include inappropriate or abusive content. Due to this procedure, developers should take this into consideration, while developing an app for iOS. The process of verifying the application last approximately 3-4 weeks.
Android, on the other hand, does not have such strict verification procedures. Unfortunately, fake apps regularly appear in the Google Play Store and scammers try to profit on big trends by creating fake apps for those popular apps. It should tempt the users to install more applications. If you’re looking for apps in the Play Store and you feel the slightest doubt about the legitimacy of an app we recommend you read the reviews. In many cases, fake apps become visible due to bad ratings of the fraudulent apps.
2. Payment for installing application from the Store.
Focusing on the revenue source (the way of monetising the app itself), we can notice that iOS apps are more likely to charge users for downloading them and for in-app purchases. Android applications are usually free to download and get monetised through ads embedded in them.
3. Quality of animation.
The quality of iOS animations is better than the one from Android. Google has tried to fix this through the preview of Android L and by establishing an app design trend known as Material Design. In the meantime, Apple has always been focusing on soft, complex and powerful animations by looking after its aesthetics and user experience carefully. Google, on the other hand, decided to rather focus on the hardware instead of these aspects.
4. Advertisement
iOS didn’t allow any advertisement appeared in apps to maintain profit. Which is when android allows an advertisement appeared in the application while using the apps, it disturb the process of using the apps.
5. Security.
The mobile devices working on Android OS are considered by many users as budget-friendly alternatives to iOS devices (even though there are currently many options on the market that are more expensive than Apple’s products). Essentially, the pricing component is fundamental when looking at iOS vs. Android rivalry for regular users, which is clearly indicated by the history of sales numbers. As we can see, for the last eight years, Android has been the undeniable leader when compared to iOS in the consumer segment. It is fair to say, however, that open source code also has its disadvantages.
Unfortunately, Android users often encounter various viruses and other hacker software that can be very harmful to mobile devices. iOS, in turn, leaves practically no loopholes for harmful software, which says a lot about the reliability of the operating system.
