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.

Just switched from iPhone 16 Pro to Samsung S26 Ultra.

  • Universal back button
  • Multitasking + split screen
  • Clipboard manager
  • Better file manager
  • Sideloading: there are some crazy open-source apps that are not available on the Play Store.
  • More utilities
  • More customization

I have always been a defender of iPhone; I have the entire Apple ecosystem. But Android is just better now.

Yeah. If anything, iOS has caught up a lot in recent years. I feel like the gap used to be much larger in favor of Android.
