Android and iOS
It's so hard to change. If you are already used to one way of doing things, the opposite takes a long time and the older you are, the worse. I don't think one operating system is better than another but it is true that, for me, iOS is much easier to use than Android . I use both without "problem", but I am not equally comfortable in both. I like iOS much more than Android, even though both are very good, I repeat.
For me iOS is a much simpler operating system than Android and the truth is that at this time in my life, the last thing I want is to think and complicate myself.Maybe that's why I feel more comfortable with an Apple Android phone owners think otherwise.
Yes it is true that within Android there are many makes and models. You can find one of the lowest category that does not reach €100 and a top of the range that exceeds €1,000. Not to mention the different layers of customization that each brand has. In iOS there's only the iPhone, you really don't have a choice. Either you buy an iPhone from Apple, or you buy an iPhone from Apple
Older people and their use of mobile phones:
iOS Facetime
If technology is complicated for the elderly, it is more complicated to change from one operating system to another, but during the confinement there have been many cases.
A grandfather often uses an Android phone. The price of the same may influence his decision.What they don't know, or if they do know, they don't care exactly, is that when it comes to updating their terminal, it's not very fluid. Android's strong point is not updates .
An older person, wants a cheap mobile phone with which to call, to be called, to send a WhatsApp and show off photos of grandchildren to their friends, the rest does not matter. That is why the vast majority choose a low/medium-range Android, although in confinement the use of iPhone FaceTime has grown significantly among this group. Without going any further, my parents have gone from having a normal Samsung to a iPhone 8 each to be able to use FaceTime with their grandchildren and I know of several cases of this type.
My mother has handled the change well, my father has not. Accustomed to Android,iOShe finds it very difficult, he says that the keyboard is different and WhatsApp is not the same He is right.
