can definitely say that iOS tightens up certain system-level functionality that android has sadly missed on. some notable examples I've picked up in the past two days:
- holding down on context menus and letting go on an option to select; a really nice UX quirk! present on iOS, not on android.
- holding on the spacebar in keyboard to smoothly navigate text: can swipe across 2d space to reach multiple lines on iOS, only works for horizontal swiprs on android.
- on iOS, you can double-tap on text to select it, and long-press to reposition your cursor with magnification above the finger to help see what you're doing. this magnification is absent on android, and long-press/double-tap feel like they may or may not actually select text depending on their mood.
these are super minor gripes, but these features really help make the system feel that little bit nicer to use. say what you will about apple's inexcusable hostility to their customers- they've still got some world-class UX designers.
