  • I already own Apple devices so the integration is really good. But also, I find the apps are more refined and more often updated on iOS. App A on iOS is really polished and has frequent update and on Android I’ve found App A to lag behind, not have the same features etc.

    I also prefer the closed App Store and the hardware/software integration.I feel like Android has to content with hundreds of different phones so the OS does the best it can to run efficiently. On iOS everything is tuned to the hardware a little better so batteries last longer because they’re optimized, not because they have to pop a massive battery in the phone and hope for the best.


    • Fantastical because the stock calendar app sucks.
    • Spark, because Apple’s mail client often carries lines continuously to the right without starting a new line, making emails harder to read.
    • Evernote because it has note versioning and an easy option to export should I ever want to leave
    • Carrot Weather because I can choose a source, and the watch complication shows the condition AND the temperature. Also, far less scrolling and clicking around
    • Todoist because it’s more robust than Reminders, though I still use Reminders for those small “hey Siri, remind me to check the mail in an hour” kind of things.
