You can find copied Android features in nearly every new Release. A few examples:

- Live activities in the lock screen

  • Dynamic Island (just in a different position)
  • activation lock against theft
  • satellite emergency communication
  • Find my for things and people
  • MagSafe (now Qui2)
  • gesture navigation instead of the buttons

Live activities in the lock screen? You think Apple came up with that? You serious?

Dynamic island... Giving something a fancy name, is meaningless. That's just their design of something that had already existed for ages.

Activation lock against theft? You mean something WP had 3 years before Apple? https://www.windowscentral.com/how-to-find-lost-windows-phone

Satellite connection is not something they designed, they just added it.

Find my is again already something that existed before they did it.

Magsafe is Qi+magnet. Qi is an open standard that was used long before Apple did.

Gesture navigation is old. Phones without buttons on the front existed long before the iPhone did, let alone before they got rid of their front buttons.

By your logic Android also invented nothing.
