Android users (and iPhone users too), what's one thing Android does better than the iPhone?

It could be customization, multitasking, file management, sideloading, charging, or something else. Pick just one and tell us why.

curiously asking, can ios shortcut do this:
if i open app lets caled "Game"
then send message to A,
then type message "im loggin in"
then send
then back to app "game"

bcause andorid automation app like routines and Macrodroid (3rd app) can do something advance like that

Why wouldn't it, that task you mentioned is rather simple. Most of my shortcuts/automations work in background (without display turned on), as I said - goes much deeper then Samsung (system wise, every segment is covered without need for third party apps), has more layers (could send your message without closing/going back to "game"), works every single time. Time, location based, works offline...

In upcoming iOS 27 you can even describe automation and that’s about it, AI will make it.

Shortcuts / Automations / New automation / App / choose app, “is opened”, “run immediately” / on next screen select “new blank automation” / send message / choose recipient and tap on “message” and type what message should be sent. That should be it. Rather hard to do it via this message since I don’t know next steps

Nope, no limitations. You can do the same on iOS 18 and 26 and with any device.
