Sorry, what? Are wee talking about different operating systems? Apple is way more hostile to developers, as I described in my other comment.

Practically you simply can do a lot more on iOS, especially if you are doing things that require a lot of performance. The CPU is much, much faster, you have access to more RAM, the GPUs are more advanced. There is actually a GPU computer API that works on all phones instead of the mess on Android where there simply isn’t anything that is universally supported.

APIs are also a lot more powerful on iOS. Anything related to media, for example. You have so much more control and advanced APIs for things like the camera, dealing with video data, etc. There simply is no comparison. Android is a toy OS compared to iOS.
