      Yeah not Apple. They limit you to their ecosystem while Android lets you do literally whatever the fuck you want. Don’t want to pay for an app in the app store? Then don’t. Don’t want to use the default home screen environment? Then change it. I could go on but I mean it’s pretty obvious at this point.

        Yep. I’ve been an Android girl since the beginning. The only Apple product I ever had was a free iPad my husband’s job gave us because they were pushing Apple products on everyone because that’s how they spy on everyone. Oh but Android spies on us too but at least we have all the benefits you mentioned above.

          And technically there are ways (using some of the above mentioned stuff) to turn off those kinds of security and spyware stuff while Apple is known for buttons that say things like “stop tracking data” or similar that do literally nothing.

      We decided this app is too old for your device, so it is disabled with no way of enabling it
