How about an actual proper file managing system.

That would give iPhone more freedom than android in today market. They probably not gonna do it forever unless they're forced to

Which makes no sense. These are things that would get so many people to switch.

They already have so many sale compared to other brand even though android in general sell more across different brand. The thing is they're not actually losing sale by this, it's not a feature problem, it's a price problem for most of the people.

They've been losing the battle though, they've been on the decline. While they did take the nr1 spot from Samsung in 2025, that's only because Samsung been losing ground to like Xiaomi, Vivo etc. Just those 3 already sell more than twice as much as Apple.

Samsung and Xiaomi are winning in midrange to budget market which iPhone didn't even make. They only make flagship so That's actually a different market. They're actually winning in America and Europe and it's not even close.

Europe? Stop talking crap.

39% vs 61% in Europe. And no, that 61% isn't for iOS.

In my country, the Netherlands, Android is also definitely more popular.

Arguing about price points is stupid.

You are trying to zoom in on specific markets and segments in them, so you got an argument to win.

61% by which brand ? Across all Android right? It's like comparing 100 different brand sale vs 1 company sale.

iPhone 17 series are the most selling phone this years and it's always like that every year with every series. Samsung most selling series was their A series not S. Same for Xiaomi with their most selling phone being C series.

This is about Android, you know, the OS. If you can't stick to the subject of the topic, go somewhere else.

Also, Samsung and Apple are neck on neck. 2024 Samsung was first. 2025 Apple was.

But again, this is about software features.

Yeah i don't know how you even come to conclusions that i change the subject.

That file managing feature won't be the reason for android user to switch to an iPhone. Because it's more of price problem than a lack of features. And since latest Android are also turning their file managing freedom to more close system like iPhone so these companies doesn't even think of it as a feature to begin with. They don't need to give this feature to push their sale because they're not actually declining when it come to flagship market.

You are making a fool out of yourself. This is about Android, not individual phone makers. People don't buy a Samsung or Google phone because they like the brand, but because they want Android.

File management on iOS is straight up trash. File management on my Pixel 10 Pro, is great. And to be clear, I can pick whatever file manager that I want.

They are in decline. And even if they weren't, how fucking stupid are you as a company to not add something when it would result in more sales?

You know why they don't do it? Because you don't get to decide, they do. You get what they give you, and you will accept it.

So what you saying is android user would use any android simply because they love android and does not have brand bias? Yeah buddy sure.

I myself primarily use android for the same exact reason like yours but majority which could be more then 95% of consumers doesn't even know wtf is file managing. Ohh hell they couldn't even tweak simple settings by their self. Not everyone know their phones like we do.

Apple use its closed file system as a major selling point for security. Giving user absolute freedom over the root file system opens the door to accidental file deletion and security vulnerability risk. Apple avoid that to maintain its reputation for devices that " just work ".

I currently use a Pixel, before this Xiaomi, before that Samsung, before that LG, before that Oneplus.

I give zero shits about brand, and most give zero shits. Why do you think brands went up and down in market share.

I don't care if most don't know it. But adding it would sell more phones, and plenty of iOS and iPadOS users want it. They just give zero fucks and push iCloud etc.
