17. ANDROID VS IOS

18. Android
• OS: Android runs on many devices with different
type of hardware.
• Malware Threats: There are more malware threats
written for Android than iOS. Because Android is
Open Source.
• App Security: Many vulnerabilities occur through
misconfiguration or bad code and won’t always be
caught by QA center .
• Integration with Other Devices: Google's services
like Gmail, Maps, Google Now, etc., work across all
Android devices. But unless your watch, tablet,
phone, and computer are all made by the same
company — and there aren't too many companies
other than Samsung that make products in all of
those categories.
ANDROID VS IOS
iOS
• OS: iOS only runs on Apple hardware, and this
proprietary pairing has always helped Apple
tighten up their system more than open vendors.
• Malware Threats: iOS have less likely to have
vulnerability. Because it is close source.
• App Security: Apple has always betted the
software it allows into its store fairly carefully
compared to Android, which improves quality.
• Integration with Other Devices: Apple's Continuity
features let you unlock your Mac using an Apple
Watch, start writing an email on your iPhone while
you're walking and finish it on your Mac at home,
or have all of your devices receive any call coming
into your iPhone.

Android
• Intelligent Assistant: Google Assistant, the most
prominent artificial intelligence/intelligent
assistant on Android, is extremely powerful. It
uses everything Google knows about you and
the world to make life easier for you.
• Pure Experience: Android's openness means
that sometimes manufacturers install their own
apps in place of higher-quality standard apps.
This is compounded by phone companies also
installing their own apps. As a result, it can be
hard to know what apps will come on your
Android device and whether they'll be any good.
• Sandbox: No sandbox
ANDROID VS IOS
iOS
• Intelligent Assistant: Siri is Apple's answer to
Google Assistant for artificial intelligence. It's
improving all the time with each new iOS
release. It's still limited to fairly simple tasks and
doesn't offer the advanced smarts of Google
Assistant.
• Pure Experience: Apple is the only company
that pre-installs apps on the iPhone, so every
phone comes with the same, mostly high-
quality apps.
• Sandbox: Every iOS app is kept inside a
sandbox. This means that a malicious app won’t
be able to secretly steal data or infect other
apps.

Android
• Developer Mode: Android has Developer
mode so any one can change, make, or test
the android apps, and also install apps from
unknown sources. To test the android
applications, you have to install Android
Emulator, or attach your android mobile with
USB to the system.
ANDROID VS IOS
iOS
• Developer Mode: iOS have not such type of
developer mode. It has Xamarin
Development tool and Objective-C language
– which upgraded to Swift – that is used to
develop iOS apps. To test the iOS application,
you must have to pair the mac with the
system.
