Android has made improvements but it’s definitely not there.  Then again that 
makes me a bad person for saying that especially on the eyes free list.:)  I’m 
a user of both, both have their place but for real work it’s IOS for me hands 
down, at least so far.  I like you will not stick with Apple if someone starts 
improving on these areas and can deliver me at least as stable and usable a 
solution.  That’s a big ask even with Apple’s issues.

I agree with you completely though.
