So, enable Netflix notifications but disable Netflix notifications at a system level? Seems like a silly reason to prefer iOS, considering every modern Android has the same feature.

He's just saying that iOS had this feature way sooner than Android did

And android could sync my contacts through the cloud (google servers) to a new device and edit online, syncing the other way before iOS. What's the point?

Could whoever downvote explain? It's a feature that Android had first... The fact is, today, they both have Feature X, so debating who had what first doesn't add to a constructive argument was my point.

You asked for explanation and I did explain. You replied to me with something that could be seen as an attack. I don't know his point, I just explained his comment, that's all. I didn't downvote you though.

If you look through the parents, I didn't ask for anything. Also, the point made was that iOS had features first... Android has had other features first... they've both had the feature in question long enough to be in place through several hardware refreshes (given an average ownership of 1-3 years), so the preference doesn't hold as much weight.

You're changing the topic.

The post I replied to was effectively "iOS had features first" my reply was that "android also had features first" ... the point being that there have been enough hardware refreshes where the features in question are on both platforms reducing the weight of the argument.

If you buy a current Android phone, it will have privacy controls for 90% (guesstimate) of apps in the Play Store.

You can allow/block permissions from any app, no matter what Android version it targets. If the app targets a version below 6.0 (Marshmallow) then the app won't ask at runtime and Android will warn you that block a permission for that app may break it.

Ah yes, I forgot about that.

100%, you mean.
