what's up guys rod pretty here from TechnoBuffalo and I did it I finally switched back to my iphone now I was using a note 5 before this if you guys have been following and before that I was on my iPhone before that I started off my whole smartphone life on a Samsung Captivate way back in the day obviously there's been more phones in between that but today I wanted to share with you guys a couple reasons why I've been switching back and forth why most recently I've switched back to my iPhone what I like what I don't like I'm gonna miss about Android and all that good stuff let's go ahead and get started so first thing I want you guys to take with a grain of salt is everything I say is based purely on my usage so I use my phone for calling texting emailing some social media apps here and there Washington YouTube videos and that's kind of it nothing more than that so first we have iMessage I really missed having this because I was using the text messaging app within the note 5 now I know there's a ton of workarounds on Android but I message is just so simple and it works really well for me because I use a Mac desktop I use a MacBook Pro and an iMac we use the windows editing rig but I don't use that for personal stuff so I like having iMessage I like having that continuity so that's nice to have that back next we have early apps an example of this is something like peach we saw this on Instagram a couple years ago iOS tend to get apps before Android does and over my span of two to three months of using my note 5 I really did miss out on trying some new apps that I wanted to give a shot so I'm not a huge deal but it's very nice to have that back and get sort of first dibs on everything that comes out and finally we have mail I really like Apple's mail client I understand Gmail is great it does some weird stuff where it will reverse the threat of a conversation so to put the most recent email at the bottom so to scroll down to that it also really struggles to delete draft so I don't understand why it does that either I know there's a lot of great email clients out there for Android I like having apples first party mail client it's very very good with that being said I am going to miss her in things on Android though number one being widgets and the app drawer it helps me really organize my phone so on the note 5 I was down to about two pages the Evernote widget really being sort of on my home screens allowed me to look at my to-do list and that kind of stuff I love having that functionality not having to open up apps on iOS I'm on like six pages so being able to put my non-primary apps in the app drawer is a great luxury and I'm going to be missing that next we have device versatility now I was using a note 5 and so for things like snapchat having the stylus was awesome they got to scribble draw write all over my pictures it's great and then let's say you're a mobile photographer only you can go buy a phone that has the greatest camera if you don't care about any other features having that fertility to get a phone that is tailored for you is a great luxury that I'm going to miss on iOS because you're obviously forced to just get an iPhone last but not least we have Google now I'm aware that it's on iOS but it's not quite as well integrated as it is on Android so I was using my note 5 these last two weeks when I was traveling I flew to Minneapolis and then the following day flew to Miami in both cases without me having to enter any information Google now knew where I was flying and gave me traffic updates it gave me weather updates of where I was going so I could pack accordingly again all without me entering any information a little bit creepy but very very useful and so that's pretty much it there wasn't really one feature that put me over the edge and switched me from iOS to Android or Android to iOS it's just the small feature small things like iMessage and widgets that switch me back and forth so I don't know how long I'll be on iOS 4 but I'm enjoying it as of now let me know if you guys think in the comments down below what is the feature that could switch you from iOS to Android or vice versa depending on what you're using very curious to hear gives a thumbs up if you liked the video hit subscribe I'll see you as the next one thanks so much for watching
