    And as a developer android is looking more and more like iOS as it becomes more restricted on what you can do.

    The two are converging

      yea, i get a lot of these changes and lock downs suck, but i can also see why they are needed from a security stand point. Proper sand boxing, requiring permission to access to camera and microphone, ect all seem like good changes.

        One of the ones I’m working on today I’m actually exempted from being disallowed its use, although it does still require some changes.

        I’m still dreading the moment I submit the app though and their AI declares I don’t meet the requirements, and I go into the doom pit of their non existent support.

        At least on Apple it’s possible to interact with a human pretty easily.
