I am completely uninterested to going back to the privacy-stealing, ad-infested nightmare that is Android. Besides, what would I even gain? iOS 25 just got live translation in calls and item extraction from screen (not just photos). So what am I missing?

I would never defend Android, but the idea that iOS is somehow better is pretty funny to me

    There’s a Weather widget. It doesn’t have ads. There’s a podcast app. It doesn’t have ads. There’s an RSS app. I paid $7.99 for it, once. It doesn’t have ads.

    The entire Android ecosystem is built around people not paying for anything ever, where the iOS ecosystem, people pay for things. And honestly, it’s a way nicer experience.

      Idk why you're assuming I put up with ads for any of those things. Believe it or not, the $ vs. ads trade-off is alive and well on Android

        I had an NVIDIA shield. I paid money for it. And then I got a mcdonald’s ad on the homescreen.

I think you should read and/or think more carefully.
