I am no stranger to autocorrect, it\u2019s found on every Android device as well. However, autocorrect on the iPhone really is a beast of its own.<\/p>\n<p>Most Android keyboards correct words as you\u2019re typing, but the iPhone will literally correct words <em>after<\/em> you hit send. This was hugely frustrating to me in the first few days after my switch.<\/p>\n<p>You can be looking at the word you want to use in the text box, then when you hit send a completely different word appears in the message. For example, I once wanted to say \u201cjk,\u201d but it kept getting replaced with \u201chi.\u201d It\u2019s super annoying to double-check what you typed only to see it get \u201ccorrected\u201d after you hit send.<\/p>\n<p>I eventually just turned off autocorrect altogether, but now I have to manually uppercase \u201cI\u201d every time I type it in the middle of a sentence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Disable Auto-Correct on iPhone and iPad<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"File_Management_Is_a_Pain\"><\/span>File Management Is a Pain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Uncompress-feature-showed-in-Files-app-for-Zip-files-on-iPhone-.png?width=1198&amp;trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Uncompress feature showed in Files app for Zip files on iPhone\" width=\"1200\" height=\"551\" data-credittext=\"Khamosh Pathak\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Khamosh Pathak<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This one may not be as surprising to you, but file management on the iPhone is still not great. It\u2019s certainly miles ahead of what it used to be but still can\u2019t hold a candle to Android.<\/p>\n<p>Apple\u2019s default \u201cFiles\u201d app is very simple and easy to use, but don\u2019t expect to do any heavy-duty file managing. Plus, the third-party file manager situation is very limited. This is partly a good thing as iOS doesn\u2019t allow apps to access your <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a> as easily as Android. But what\u2019s even more annoying is the lack of file support.<\/p>\n<p>For example, I downloaded an M4A file from the Google Chrome browser on the iPhone. First of all, it wouldn\u2019t play on the Google Drive mobile site (it does on Android). Second, I couldn\u2019t play the file from the Files app or the VLC app. Something that works with no thought on Android felt nearly impossible on the iPhone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Find Downloaded Files on an iPhone or iPad<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"App_Library_is_Super_Restrictive\"><\/span>App Library is Super Restrictive<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-679534 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/User-using-iOS-15-App-Library-to-see-how-it-works.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"User using iOS 14 App Library to see how it works\" width=\"650\" height=\"300\" data-credittext=\"Khamosh Pathak\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Khamosh Pathak<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The App Library is one of the newest additions to the iPhone home screen, and I was excited to try it. I like the idea of auto-generated folders that surface your most frequently-used apps. It\u2019s nifty to be able to launch an app without opening the full folder.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s one pretty big problem with the App Library, though. It has almost no customization or options to tweak. There is literally one (1) option for the App Library in the Settings\u2014show or hide notification badges.<\/p>\n<p>Why can\u2019t I rearrange the folders like I can on the home screen? Why can\u2019t I remove folders I don\u2019t want? Why can\u2019t I rename folders? Why can\u2019t I do <em>anything<\/em>?

In general, it\u2019s a nice feature, but Apple isn\u2019t doing enough with it. You\u2019ll be sorely disappointed if you expect to replicate the Android Quick Settings.<\/p>\n<p>Like the App Library, there\u2019s not much customization here. You can add and remove different controls, but they\u2019re all from Apple. Third-party apps can\u2019t make controls. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if this changes in the future.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, many of the available controls just aren\u2019t that compelling. It\u2019s nice to have the basics, such as shortcuts to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, screen brightness, media controls, and volume. But I want more.

This is a nearly universal shortcut in the Android world and I use it all the time. You can start opening the camera before the phone is even fully out of your pocket.<\/p>\n<p>I will admit that the iPhone\u2019s \u201cRaise to Wake\u201d feature is good enough that you can launch the camera pretty quickly with the lock screen gesture. Still, it\u2019s slower than any Android phone I\u2019ve used.<\/p>\n<p>What makes this more annoying is Apple does actually let you customize the long-press action. The problem is your only options are Siri, \u201cClassic Voice Control\u201d, or nothing at all.

It\u2019s not all about the big differences, though. There are some little inconsistencies you might notice.<\/p>\n<p>One such inconsistency is the gesture for opening the Notification Center. In most places, that gesture is a swipe down from the top left corner of the screen. This is very familiar to Android users.<\/p>\n<p>However, the gesture is the exact opposite on the lock screen. New notifications\u2014ones that arrived since the last time you unlocked the phone\u2014appear front and center.

I can\u2019t think of any modern Android phones that have a similar switch. It\u2019s surprisingly handy, but also kinda annoying.<\/p>\n<p>I was shocked to find out there are no software controls for silent mode in the Settings. The physical switch is the one and only way to silence your phone. I discovered this after my iPhone was accidentally taken out of silent mode multiple times by the action of putting it in my pocket.<\/p>\n<p>What if the switch stops working? There should be some sort of \u201coverride\u201d feature to control the ring\/silent mode without needing the physical switch.

It may even be better than Google\u2019s highly touted Portrait Mode on Pixel phones. However, there\u2019s one thing holding it back\u2014it only works with faces.<\/p>\n<p>I use Portrait Mode on Android phones to take photos of inanimate things all the time. Sometimes it\u2019s nice to be able to heavily blur the background. It would be much more useful if Apple allowed it to work with any person, animal, or object in the foreground.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Use the iPhone&#8217;s Portrait Mode<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Audio_Priority_Inconsistency\"><\/span>Audio Priority Inconsistency<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019ll end things with a small inconsistency with audio.\u00a0Say you\u2019re listening to Spotify in the background while scrolling through Instagram. If a video starts playing audio, the music will pause, as expected. The problem is the music doesn\u2019t always start again when you scroll past the video.<\/p>\n<p>The annoying thing about this is it\u2019s very inconsistent. Sometimes the background audio will start playing again, other times I have to go manually press play. I can\u2019t find any rhyme or reason for it either. Admittedly, this also happens on Android sometimes, but it stuck out to me on the iPhone.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>While all of these things are annoying to different degrees, I wouldn\u2019t say any of them are definitive deal breakers. That being said, you will need some time to adjust if you\u2019re coming from an Android device. Apple\u2019s philosophy on a lot of things with the iPhone is simply very different from that of Google and other Android phone makers.
