Looking for switching from Apple iPhone to Android. Some of the main features that differ a lot between Android and iPhone.



 

Android hit the market just one year ago. One of the greatest confusion on customers is whether to switch from Apple iPhone to Android or not. Some of the important features in Android that differs a lot from iPhone are:

iPhone to Android


1.Customization of Android


The most powerful tool that Android offers the users is easy customization and hence a solid control on the phone. But, Apple only gives users a pre-installed or available gadgets and applications which can remain and work the same way they are. Android lets you to decide your style and look. You can add widgets to your home screen without any dedicated apps. Another attractive customization is the direct links to songs, websites, pictures or anything you like. You can install or set the home screen with the frequently used applications in your phone. This will help you the painstaking searching of applications in the phone.

Although the customization option is a stunning one for many, it's still a difficult one for others. Many users prefer to have the default profile on their phone. But, Android offers rather a poor default set up. You need to update and upload your Android with gadgets to make it worthwhile. Without downloading Astro, you will feel difficulty in managing your files. Similarly, gadgets are to be downloaded to have a longer battery life.


2.Online life in Android


Android offers one of the best online experiences with lots of gadgets and apps. Apple lacks many of the essential services of many customers' online life. Android provides integrated online life with Facebook. Android will ask you whether to install Facebook while you set up your phone. If you answer yes, you will get the complete facebook profile of yours with all contacts, friends, phone numbers etc. It's very convenient to have this access with easy steps to being social.


3.Carriers in Android and iPhone.


One of the greatest reasons of switching from iPhone to Android is the great carriers options in Android. Android comes with good number of carriers, except AT&T. Many users find it difficult to cope up with AT&T's 3G service of iPhone. Carriers too have some disadvantages: They upload useless bloatware and prevent users from un-installing it.


4.Great Apps in Android


Android is one of the greatest app store, which you can't experience elsewhere. Most of these apps are designed by Google itself. Apps like Google Voice and Google Goggles are great to have. Free turn by navigation is another attractive app that will surely cherish the users. But many of the these apps are not approved in iPhone market and hence customers loose them when they need it. iPhone does not allow many third party apps. Although Android excels in syncing, it's iPhone that comes first with non-Google syncing.


Bottom line:Android is still the second option for many of manufacturers' hot list. The general trend observed in the market is buying an iPhone and then switching to Android later. Android is younger than Apple, but it has a rapid growing market in the world. This indicates that in the future, one of the main OS on the phone will be surely Android.
