    Arlen/Marion is not a yardstick for anything by any means. He - or
    better she? - is simply a sociopath. Nothing more to add. She has never
    been construcktive even not entertaining at all.

    All the brand names Chris listed are functionalities clearly available on Android, whether natively, via OEM tools, or through third-party apps.

    The distinction lies in meaningless branding, not in the existence of the features themselves.

    Many of the Android equivalents are far superior to that of the Apple
    brands, and yet some of the Apple brands are superior to those of Android.

    But all of them exist, as I knew the answer to this question before I had
    asked it, which is why I asked it in the first place.

    Only once people can understand the facts, can they ever begin to learn why there is almost nothing on iOS that isn't already (long ago) on Android.

    Personally, I'm shocked there's even 1 thing, but we know that it exists.
    For the gory detailed response to Chris' listing of brand names, please
    see my detailed response in the thought-provoking thread on this topic.

    Q: Is there really only one thing that iOS can do that Android can't do?
    A: ?

    Once you understand the answer to this question, I can begin to teach why.

    Hiding is his best move at this point.

    No. You're wrong Chris. Functionality is independent of branding.

    Your claim that branding alone makes a product functionality unique means
    the same thing as saying only Verizon branded phones can make phone calls.

    Your claim that a brand makes a functionality unique is patently absurd.

    I wonder if you realize that's exactly what you just did, Chris?
    a. I posted the question very clearly
    b. I watched you trolls add over 100 posts but none had any value
    c. Then you posted this thread - deflecting from the original question
    d. Which I responded to directly - in the thread that asked the question

    So I did make a direct response.
    You're the one deflecting.

    I'm not afraid of the answer to this fundamental thought question, Chris.

    BTW, I knew the answer before I opened that thought-provoking thread.
    I'm shocked there's even one thing an iPhone can do that Android can't.

    Once you comprehend the facts, only then can you begin to be taught why.

    And yet, you're refusing to respond to this specific thread.

    Never think I'm anything like you, Chris.
    I'm not afraid of the facts.

    In fact, I had responded, in detail, in the original thread, Chris.

    Don't you think I'm well aware there is nothing in iOS not in Android
    (other than the surprisingly useful ability to use the SMB port)?

    I'm happy (ecstatic, actually) that iOS can do anything Android can't do.
    You haven't named it though.

    Telling us that only Marlboro can make cigarettes is just you being fooled
    by branding. We're not asking here about Apple's well-known brands.

    We're asking about actual functionality.
    And nobody yet has named a single functionality on iOS not on Android.

    There is only the ability to use the SMB privileged port for apps.
    That's it.

    There's a reason iOS is brain dead, Chris, but I can't teach you why
    until you realize there's almost nothing on iOS that isn't on Android.

    I know what's on both platforms.
    You do not.

    Never make the mistake I'm anything like you Apple trolls are.
    I'm not afraid of facts.

    I'd LOVE to learn if there's something else.
