I hear Apple is “closed” compared to Android.
What exactly are the limitation that iPhone have?
For example, android can prevent other apps from installing or running and can iPhone do the same thing?
Is there any list of limitations of iPhone(especially compared to android) other than the App Store Review Guidelines?
Thank you.
Given that they approve or not the Apps. I think guidelines and published restricts are the main ones. But I supposed is closed given that is store and hardware dependent to Apple itself (while Android can be installed on heterogeneous hardware (in theory at least).
As a developer, one thing we (as company) have found is kinda ugly thin (for intellectual property sake) is that can’t use closed APIs but to be fair, we also understand the reasons.
