Cool tweaks for iOS

[DUBS73P]

So after 4 years with Android I think I'm going to go back to iPhones, the stuff you can do on Android phones are cool but after showing it off once or twice, the iphone just seems more appealing with the better apps imo

But what are some of the cool tweaks you guys have done to your iPhones, seen a couple on here in screenshots in the forums before

Cheers

No tweaks needed please just enjoy thanks.

As said above, I enjoy using a much simpler less cluttered OS than Android. Much quicker too.

You can't even have your own ringtones/text tones without stupid amounts effort or paying, so wouldn't expect many tweaks.

If you want tweaks, an iPhone isn't for you. That's the best thing about them, they're simple, they work, and they don't let you dick about with the operating system.

I used to have an iphone before switching to android a few years ago, then got an iphone 6 as i fancied a change, that lasted about 3 weeks before i got a galaxy s6, ios just isnt for me, the simplicity is brilliant and i can see the appeal, but i like to tinker so android it is for me

My biggest annoyance with android was the fact the only hint you had a message etc was a tiny icon in the top left of the screen, and the fact Facebook notifications don't clear like they do on the iPhone.

I get a pop up message preview which I can either expand to read a little more, click to open the app fully, or swipe away leaving just the notification you speak of. This is on my Nexus 5 running whatever the latest version of Android is.

Were you using an original Galaxy S with a prehistoric version of Android?

It was a nexus 4 I think. Was about 2.5 years ago.

I love iMessage to much to.

Do android have the EE wifi call thing?

I've absolutely no idea. I'm certainly no techie when it comes to mobiles and I'm not a super heavy user, I just know that Android works as well for me as iOS does for my wife. Comparing the two side by side I see little to differentiate them...other than the primary cost of the devices themselves.

Err.

You can put useless "factory" apps into a folder to "hide" them.

I think the amount of devices running android is a major off put to me.

This shocked me tbh. The amount of devices running android.

 

[CrippsCorner]

There's 1,300 different manufacturers of Android phones

 

[Tighten My Nuts]

Why is that a problem? You're only ever going to own one aren't you?

Just buy one that works well.

Yes if you have an EE locked phone running their tweaked operating system.

It's not really a problem, just stating there is fragmentation within Android, so many different sizes, resolutions and specifications to write for.

This is a non issue these days.
