Apple Update Is Over One Hundred Times Faster Than Android

Apple's newest operating system took three days from public announcement to reach one-in-five handsets. Meanwhile, the Android OS grabbed only three hundred in 11 days. Following the announcement of iOS 9 on Sept.16, approximations of the share of iOS platform running the newest version of Apple's operating system put it over the 20 percent spot on Sept. 18.

Those of you ensuing the roll out of Android Lollipop will remember that Google's fifth major variety of its operating system delivered the same mark at the beginning of SeptemberThanks to Apple's straight connections with each of its handsets and a minor group of devices, it can speedily roll out software updates and security patches to customer's iOS devices.

While such deals with profitable benefits in terms of promoting the handsets as being up-to-date, it also allows new features and bugs to be addressed in a short while. Thus, Apple can pretentiously be on familiar terms with the bugs in the first place, which may also mean that any security matters can be addressed with alacrity.

Android is far more disseminated with numerous producers using their own squeezed variety of Android, over numerous devices with many amalgamations. To top it up, you have the network carriers tangled in the deliberations as well. Google, the producers and the carriers, they all need to decide on a firmware update before it rolls out, which then leads to almost unforgivable postponements.

Google forewent the capability to have a straight connection with consumer handsets to expedite updates for software and security to permit Android to gain market share through stretchy deals with producers. That was an unambiguous choice by Google, and it should be called out on that if mandatory.

Bear in mind that Microsoft had the same problems with Windows. It also had to deal with a substantial number of producers, suppliers and an almost boundless volume of modules put together in a grey box. Redmond manages to roll out well-timed software and security updates, so it is said to be really probable.

Likewise, Google is at work on this matter, with many rudimentary updates now accomplished through the Google Play Store updates instead of a full-blown variation to the firmware, but it has taken the recent advancement of the StageFright feat for Google and its Android associates to start concentrating on the matter.

Whatever Google does now with Android, it is doubtful that it will ever be in a sturdy place as Apple is set to bring well-timed and appropriate software updates short of intervention. That is down to the choices made when the particular operating systems and hardware were released. However, those choices last to have a major influence on how the two rival platforms are generally assumed to be the case.
