    It is not a promoter of Android. It gets the social interaction it wants
    by trolling. It has not yet learned how to get the social interaction it
    wants in any other way.

    All who feed it are encouraging it to troll.

    Notice the "instant kindergarten" when iKooks are faced with the facts.
    *All you iKooks _hate_ there is nothing on iOS not already on Android*

    Otherwise, you'd be able to name at least one basic functionality.
    *Name just one*

    Two more that I know of are related to Apple Wallet.

    Several states now allow digital driver's licenses to be added to Apple
    Wallet, but not to Google Wallet/Google Pay.

    The recreation.gov app allows tickets and passes to be added to Apple
    Wallet, but, at least last year, you could not do the same for Google Wallet/Google Pay.

    One more, and it can be good or bad, is that on iOS an app cannot
    prevent screen shots. On Android, an app can prevent screenshots and
    you'll get a message “Can’t take a screenshot due to the security policy."

    there are ways to prevent capturing what's on the screen.

    it's also meaningless since someone can use a separate camera to take a
    photo of the screen.

    actually there haven't, with one exception, the long discontinued

    method that can easily be spoofed using either a photo or a selfie on
    another phone, which is why it's blocked from being used for financial transactions.


    That's why I ask:
    *Name a _single_ app functionality on iOS that isn't already on Android*

    you reject all answers, mostly because you don't understand what modern phones can actually do.


    And you waste your time trying to polish this damn andy turd. This
    ball of shit never gets any shinier, but you keep rubbing it. You
    could try to be more helpful, instead of viciously defensive. Some
    of us could really use your knowledge, but you don't have time for
    that. Think about it, please. Don't waste your entire life on andy.

    He brings up good points that make you think about what's different.
    For example he's right that everything above is already on Android.
