I switched a year ago and the only thing that is truly, fundamentally, worse about the experience is notifications. Somehow iOS notifications (swiping away, interacting, everything) are just incredibly clunky compared to Android. Throw in the baffling decision to separate the state of the "Notification Center" from what appears on the lock screen and it makes for a terrible experience.
I don't regret the decision, it's just frustrating that this one thing is so far behind everything else.

- _bxg1 7y agoYou can do that on Android too. I believe you can also do things like "mute subsequent notifications from a particular app if they come in at a certain rate after the first one". So for a string of messages you'd only get buzzed once. To be fair, Android's do-not-disturb/prioritized messages system is way too complicated.
