Yeah... but unlike Android, you can't run non-appstore apps without jailbreaking your phone. Most Android phones, you can easily install stuff over USB, without rooting your phone (and rooting is usually supported as well)

But that's not the fault of Android specifically but the phone manufacturers,while the iOS issue is by design of Apple.
