IOS Vs. Android: Who’s Better At The App Thing?
I posted part one of this series a couple of weeks ago, and now part two is available. It’s all about the app experience on the two platforms. Once again it’s a lot to take in, but again it’s an interesting read. The thing that sticks out to me the most here is the difference …
