I think this is a bit overstated. I have an S7 Active from Samsung and a Nexus running pure Android. the systems are not that different. I happen to be using the same screen reader,launcher, TTS and so on on both systems, so they're very similar. Of course there are some differences. The Nexus only has three buttons on it while the S7 Active has seven.The S7 Active has a 4000MAH battery and there are some more differences. Depending on how you look at it, the greater amount of form factors and choice is a point in Android's favor. There's no way I could get a phone like the S7 Active as an iPhone.

IMHO, there's nothing wrong with either platform and people should be glad they have a choice.

And as someone already stated, all Androids are different, all iPhones are all the same, so each time you switch from one Android device to another, you have to learn how that particular device works, you don't have that problem with iDevices.

I have used both and prefer IOS to android. Yes, they are more expensive,
but so much easier to use. I loathe Talk Back, it is more frustrating for
me. I tried using an Android tablet and an Android phone and hated both of
them. It is IOS all the way for me.

IOS is definitely more accessible than Android, from wha I have
read.

I like the blindness apps that are available for IOS.  BeSpecular
and Be My Eyes are a couple examples.  Money Reader is another
example.  It is really easy to use a Braille display with IOS.
Just go into VoiceOver Settings, Braille then pair it.  One thing
that really annoys me about Android is that from what I
understand, each phone is laid out differently because each
manufacturer puts its junk on.  An iPhone is an iPhone.  Once you
learn one, you can use any iPhone that you have your hands on.
Usually, when I get a new iPhone, I am able to get it set up
within an hour or less then go on about my business.  What really
annoys me about Android is that not every phone gets updates.
That means that if I am one of the unlucky people who has a phone
that won't get Android O, I just have to read on mailing lists
about the kool features while I'm stuck on the earlier version.

Hey guys.  So, yeah yeah flack time….  I currently have a
blackberry PRIV running android 6.0.1, love the phone yes! But
here is my question.  I just got myself a brand new shiny fast
sleek MBP and the question of android or IOS is popping into my
head.  I have a good while before I can afford to afford to get a
new device, but I want some input here.  Other than the
continuity features, please tell me what is so great about IOS
today.  Please don’t tell me that its got the best
accessibility, because that is a fallacy since google is equal,
but features, useful new tools, etc just something that would
actually sway me more to looking seriously at IOS again.
thanks
Doug.
