QUALITY:
Of the three, I'll concede that this is the one that could be somewhat geared toward personal preference. I'll also concede that because of Android's open nature, Android apps sometimes offer more functionality depending on the situation. My point though is that if you ask a number of users, other than Google's own apps, most will say that the quality of iOS apps surpass that of Android apps. Case in point: the iOS Facebook app vs. the Android Facebook app.
DEVELOPER PREFERENCE:
I can name a number of mainstream apps that either don't currently exist for Android, or were available for Android AFTER they were available for iOS: Netflix, Kindle, Twitter, Facebook, etc. |
Quantity? Who the **** cares if there are 10,000 fart generator apps? When it comes to USEFUL apps... Android and iOS have reached parity in regards to phones. I don't think it's a stretch to imagine they will reach parity for tablet apps within the next 6 months.
