There's much to agree with here, but the article referred to was from ZDNet, and that article did refer to another article which actually had some real information. It wasn't just anecdotal, and it wasn't just some rant from a guy in his basement with his own blog, which is what I was expecting.

I would also think that quality of IOS and VoiceOver would be on topic for this list.

It could also both be true that IOS has some quality issues and Android has some malware issues. They aren't mutually exclusive!

Like I said, there's a lot to agree with below, such as how easy it would be for this to go off topic and just turn into bashing and not productive or constructive at all.

Pablo and others,



You can find bunches of articles on anything on Google. I could send you
50 links of articles which praise Apple and iOS to high heaven, then I
can send you just as many that are the complete opposite and the same
applies to Google/Android. I can probably even find you some die-hard
Blackberry fans who are posting that Blackberry is the best ever and
both iOS and Android are complete BS. I don't think we have to get into
what is better or if iOS is any good or anything like that. The point is
that this is an iOS list, we are all here because we use iOS devices due
to their very good level of accessibility. We all know there are bugs
and that there always will be bugs. We all  know that Apple with iOS,
Mac OS, TVOS and Watch OS don't have an exclusive on them, Android has
them, Windows has them, Google Chrome has them and other software like
Jaws, Office, Adobe, Firefox they all have bugs as do all apps.

This list is and should be about helping each other, answering each
others questions and posting articles about some particularly cool app
or accessory. The list is also about posting about bugs you discover or
think you have discovered, sure you can point out your thoughts that
Apple should do more or that Apple really should have fixed this or that
bug already or during the Beta cycle, but I think these rants which then
result in endless one-liners about how somebody is right or wrong or
should go and get an Android phone if they aren't happy with the iPhone
are just getting old, they usually just rephrase what has already been
said a dozen times over. As you know very well yourself Android isn't
all it's made out to be and while you say you totally would have an
Android phone if you could see there are also thousands of ex-Android
users who can see and who love their new iPhones after making the
switch. Then of course there are those "happy" Android users who bought
Samsung's new flagship Note 7 only to be surprised when the smoke hit
the fan, if this had happened to the iPhone 7 Apple would have been
/crucified and in a much worse way than Samsung./

Headlines like your ssubject "Apple has a serious problem with software
quality" are typical link bait, you can go on Google and find lots of
examples for either one, here is just one example that swings the other
way from Forbes: "New Android Malware Strikes At Millions Of Smartphones".

Sometimes you even find something that is more objective like the
summary of this comparison article:

iOS 10 vs Android 7.0 Nougat: Conclusion.

In many respects, Android and iOS are very similar. They're both slick,
refined, competent mobile operating systems. Each has its advantages and
unique features, as well as frustrations and weaknesses.





Regards,

Sieghard
