Had android for three years......widgets are the biggest waste of space and battery
Weather and traffic, among others, on my home screen(s) are great. A majority of widgets are indeed a complete waste, but there are a few that are indispensable and I'd rather have the option to have them available.

Are you a girl? Or just a young hipster that still thinks Apple is cool? Or over 30?
Because honestly, the only people I ever see with iPhones that are tech people, are either huge fanboys and/or hipsters.
The rest are 13-25 year old girls and older less tech people.
If you fit into any of those categories, then disregard. If not, it's time to switch. Sell your Apple TV for a Chromecast+Fire TV or Roku or whatever else fits that need, you can keep the Mac since you already overpaid for the name and mediocre hardware, sell the phone and get the Nexus 5 for $300 unlocked, or the SG5, or LG G3, sell the tablet and get the Tab Pro or Note Pro, and never look back.
It's really not all that hard, you can do it!

I'm sure android may have a feature that does that as well, but I just like the way Apple has designed it more. It's just way cleaner and smoother in general and I place a priority on that.
I'm having a little trouble with this statement. Are you suggesting that you like the iOS version more than the version that you don't know whether or not it exists, or did you mean something else?
ETA- other fine points all around, for the most part.

So....because I like something different than you it's time for name calling? Sounds like someone needs to grow up.

So...why? Again the only reason it sounds like "I need to switch" is because it's your preference, not mine. Not sure what the need to get so belligerent is. I think Google is a great company and I have no problem with them. In my experiences I've just liked my apple products better. Considering I have actually had both and didn't just make my decision on "what's cool" I think you need to chill the frick out.
And yeah the last android I had was the incredible. I liked it when I first had it bc it was my first smartphone (I'm 24 now), but since making the switch I've just enjoyed the iOS experience more. I've got plenty of friends who have galaxy's and the tabs who love them. I'm just not a fan. Sorry that rustles your jimmies to the point of name calling.
ETA: not you Korkstand

Yeah I worded that a little strangely. I just meant I like how iOS has everything I want to do set up. Having not had an android in a few years, I don't really know how they do it. I meant from my previous experience, I feel like the overall ecosystem is just more smoothly built. Not saying google couldn't have improved upon that, but I'm too invested now to just switch back for no reason.

Now I understand what you're saying. I've always been a proponent of the "best" device for a person being the one that they're happy with. Extra features that aren't used mean nothing. Minor missing features that are missed mean a lot.
