As every year, Apple has presented the new features of the new version of iOS, which this year is, without any surprise, the version 14. This version will come to all iphones that are sold in Spain and the rest of the world and comes loaded with new features. The innovations are interesting, and although we are going to do a review of some of them in The Android Free, we recommend you to read the article of our fellow Omicrono.
There is already a few days that we are tinkering with the beta version of Android 11, the Android version annual that will compete against iOS 14. Is it really iOS better than Android? What is better? And what is worse?
Apple with the updates would be like Gandalf. Do not arrive late, nor early, it arrives when it is proposed. This in real life means that when they do something new arriving earlier than their rivals, while other aspects may take a decade more than their rivals, making it sometimes better, sometimes worse. But let’s stop digressing and let’s get to the comparisons.
The widgets take on Android almost since its inception, and are a very useful way of providing concrete information from an application without entering into the same. Despite the fact that Apple already had widgets on iOS, they had their small window and did not offer the possibility to be integrated in the desk next to the applications, something that changes and that arrives in 2020. The idea behind widgets is an added value that has always had an Android and could be considered a copy.
The stacks widgets are an option spectacular, and it is in a single block of widgets you can have several at once, and when you roll over the widget, it goes to the next. This would be the part in which Apple, from our point of view, has not been limited to copy an idea, but has brought fresh ideas about it. I would love to see this on Android.
Let’s be fair with Apple, the aesthetics that offers your style of widgets provides a concordance with the style of the system, and will surely involve a before and an after in the widgets of Android. It has come late, but at least it has come.
The launcher is another of the aspects in which Android is better than iOS without any kind of doubt. Not only for the infinite variety of the same, but also by the possibilities. Any launcher that is created by an independent developer is more usable than iOS, and even those who copied the aesthetics of iOS are much more competitive.
2020 is the time in which Apple has its own “Drawer of Apps”. There is a drawer that opens from below or through a button, but that opens up from the right and sorts all applications that are not on the main screen.
The categorization automatic would be the point at which we could say that Apple has made an effort to add something new and fresh. It is designed very well, but there are several launchers of Android with this ability, as the of Little.
The way Picture-in-Picture it takes years to exist in Android, but integrated into the system did not arrive until Android 8.0 Oreo, which arrived in 2017. This mode allows us to see the video of an app in a floating window while you use other apps, being a great tool of multi-tasking that will come to the iPhone in 2020 (on the iPad already existed, from before, that if).
Hide the video window is floating is a great contribution of Apple in this system that we take so much time using.
Siri has received several improvements, with the possibility of understanding each other without connection one of the most important. Here Google has come before with Assistant, though given the work that you need a function like this and the advantage for Google here is not so much time, we can say that there is a function that no one copy no one, but a common goal in the development of the attendees at the Google has the advantage.
One way of improving the possibility to install new applications is through the application snapshot. These applications stand out by having a weight so light that anyone can add on to your phone immediately and start using them.
They are not new on Android, and given the performance of iOS we can say that Android here I had a clear advantage. However, this is one of the aspects in which Apple has been more stellar, and it is in the integration with the ecosystem. Either with links inside of other apps, QR codes, or NFC tags, access to an app snapshot is as easy on the iPhone that will be very popular.
The best by far of the entire Keynote. The new permit system, Apple provides clear information on all of the information that takes a application of us.
This information does not only appear when you install an application, but also in the own shop of applications, taking all the control from before you installed the application even.
In Android 11, Google has started to experiment with the integration of home, and here with Homekit, Apple has decided to take a step forward with automations that have a spectacular painting, still another aspect in which Android has a lot to learn.
Sometimes, when Apple takes both to perform certain things which in a moment may seem to us a copy, it is necessary to reflect. Instead of arguing and crying for who copied who, a little self-criticism never have enough.
The things that Apple has copied from Android have a touch of the house, in a certain sense it would be positive that Android ended implementing. It is not good to discuss for exclusives when both ecosystems can learn from each other and improve their weak points.
