Really boring is how I want my phone to behave: secure and boring. The fact they have a watch that works seamlessly also helps. I don’t think of these things

I don’t think of these things as gadgets anymore. In the past I’ve built a Linux DVR - so I know how to tinker and find it fun for certain things but not things I depend on and want to behave like appliances. I don’t tinker with my refrigerator or my automobile either.
- salamandersauce 5y agoI would describe modern Android as boring and not require tinkering either. Secure is tougher and up to the OEM to keep up with patches. Certain things with iOS are just overly difficult like getting files on or off or trying to add new music to the music app without a PC.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoAndroid is extremely secure if you don't put a bunch of relatively unknown apps on it and don't root it. I would say on par with iphone easily. I only pick iphone because they do a much better job of keeping apps and such from spying on you. Also android is constantly updating the google mothership on your location and habits.
