Customizable Operating System that is easy to use **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Avi P. | Web Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2021 **What do you like best about Android?** Android is a highly customizable operating system but at the same time it is easy to use! 1. I can change the app theme, icons, and even modify developer settings... at the same time 2. it can be used easily even by someone who does not want these advanced customizations. I have given android phones to my grandparents who are able to use and enjoy their phones. **What do you dislike about Android?** I dislike the fact that if you do not have a good account, then it will be nearly impossible to sign into the phone, download apps and perform backups. In addition, I would appreciate it if the google play store could be more exclusive in which apps they allow to publish. This will help avoid malware, scams, and other unsavory applications from being downloaded. **Recommendations to others considering Android:** There are hundreds of android phone models and versions, based on your budget go with the highest end phone you can get (so it will hopefully last at least the two years) **What problems is Android solving and how is that benefiting you?** The platform of android is very diverse, customizable, and easy to use. This means that I can give an android phone to a technically savvy person to enjoy. But at the same time, i can give the phone to a child or even grandparent who are not well-versed in this and they will still be able to use and enjoy it. Google Play is also a huge plus! There are thousands of amazing apps which target techies like myself and others who are easy to understand and come pre-configured for the non-techies... everyone is happy at the end of the day! ### 3.

One of the main factors favouring Android over Apple is this functionality. For improving an Android user's experience, some of the best widgets available include Circle Launcher and Battery Widget Reborn. **What do you dislike about Android?** Due to its open operating system, Android is more susceptible to viruses than the iPhone. I can download apps for Android from a huge selection of websites, some of which were made by cybercriminals looking to spread malware. The only place that Apple lets me download software is from its secure App Store, which is significantly more challenging for hackers to breach. **What problems is Android solving and how is that benefiting you?** Unlike iOS, which is a 'locked' system that is nearly impossible to customize, Android is an open system that lets me customize my device by integrating it with outside software. ### 11.

Android is full of features to customize your experience and easy connectivity to other devices as compared to the iOS. On Android we can run any application either downloaded from Play Store or through an APK but we cannot do that on iOS. **What do you dislike about Android?** The major thing which I dislike on Android is the UI updates because whenever you update it does not add any noticeable features and you hardly notice any difference as compared to the previous versions. So I think with updates Android should add more features which will differentiate it from older versions. **What problems is Android solving and how is that benefiting you?** Android is solving every problem for everyone out there because now you cannot imagine yourself without a smartphone. Android is an amazing OS that makes life so much easy that you can do anything or talk to anybody across the world with just few clicks. It is seamless to use. ### 12.

The Google Store is not very reliable to find the applications rouges. **What problems is Android solving and how is that benefiting you?** The phones and tablets Android are less expensive than Apple.

This results in vendors experimenting, and the best ones get adopted the most; consequently, other companies port those to their software, resulting in a win for consumers. **What do you dislike about Android?** Search in the settings app is poor. I rarely get to the setting I am looking for unless the title matches exactly. Also, the built-in file manager and explorer feel antiquated, and third-party ones are riddled with ads and are bloated to the extent of being unusable. **What problems is Android solving and how is that benefiting you?** Connecting with friends and family is a priority for me, and with android, that experience is seamless.
