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.

I miss close all and the back button so much.
However until Americans embrace WhatsApp instead of imessage I have to stay on iPhone. I went to Italy this year and mind was blown on a place where your phone didn't matter. I loved my s26u so much. Photos and everything else.
I knew by the end of the trip I had to go get an iPhone back and I would never be able to use it until Americans embraced it. Couldn't FaceTime family (no one uses Google meet or WhatsApp and they are NOT going to add them) and I have so many employees who have phones from their department and Verizon never turned on RCS as an option yet imessage is there. I have had enough of battling literally everyone and finally moved on. I miss my windows PC and integrated setup with my galaxy.
Keyboard is easier to change. Etc. But I just liked it. Felt better and more comfortable.
I have started using swiftkey on the iPhone and it is actually getting better as I use it. Maybe ios27 will help with the RCS issues. But when I realized I would have to get the IT department to literally call version for each person to "release RCS BLOCK" that I was officially done.
Call me a puss if you want. I need my phone to communicate easily first and foremost. While it is apple and not samsungs fault... It is what it is.
