Sorry iPhone Fans, Here’s 7 Things That Android Users Can Do That iOS Users Can’t

The debate over Android and iOS has loomed on for far too long. Flaunting that half-eaten Macintosh apple might be enough of a reason for one to buy it. However, 10 years has equipped the younger sibling- Android, with more tricks to flaunt.

1. Personalizing Your Device

Themes, launchers, live wallpapers- you name it and Android will have you an option to change it. Tough luck for iOS users.

 2. Managing Phone's Storage

3. Recording Phone Calls

Do your friends drunk-dial you but never believe you when you tell them about it? Custom UI or third-party apps lets you record those bizarre conversations and play it in their faces again and again.

6. Multi-Users

Handing your phone over to someone else for a day? Enable the guest account to limit access to your apps and keep all your secrets safe.

7. Default Apps

Choosing which app to open that link from again and again can be a pain in the arse. Luckily, on Android, you can choose a default app that will keep you from saying “FUCK IT!”.
