Not really true in the case of TouchID though. Sure other things had fingerprint scanners before iPhone but they sucked hard.
- gambiting 6y agoI don't think OP says they were better, just that they existed on Android phones before apple had them.
- joshstrange 6y agoCorrect. My wording could have been better probably. I would never put Android phone's face unlock in the same category as FaceID (nor their fingerprint vs TouchID). It's been a while since I've seen tech on an Android phone that Apple later implemented where the Apple's was just equivalent to the existing Android version, it's always a bigger stop forward.
- user-the-name 6y agoThis is because Apple will not add a feature just to tick a box or add a bullet point to a feature list, they will only add it if they can actually make it work well.
