I have both a nexus 5 and an iPad. I greatly prefer stock Android. Just yesterday my girlfriend was trying to figure out how to turn her ringer off at night while still being able to hear her alarm. Little tasks like that are trivial on Android but difficult on iOS.

Flipping the mute switch on the side of the phone is difficult?

  Easy to do != easy to discover

    How is it not easy to discover? You flip the switch, the phone buzzes and shows you what happened. It's one of the few buttons on the phone, it's not like it's hard to find. Not to mention contextually it's right next to the volume buttons which is where it should be.

      (Not to mention that the mute switch has been consistently implemented on 100% of iPhones since the first model in 2007...)

      When you do that it has a big crossed out bell, which worries you the alarm isn't going to go. I never sleep well if I have an early flight as I'm never 100% sure I haven't silenced the alarm!

        I'm pretty sure it's literally impossible to silence the alarm from the built-in Clock app on iOS. Third party apps are subject to the usual notification settings, though.

  That doesn't exist on the iPad anymore.

Go to settings and search for volume?
