Then explain, why for example Facebook is crying to have a massive profit loss on iOS (around 50%), because Apple made new privacy guidelines for developers? The guidline says that there must be a clear opt-in function on iOS to users to accept them to collect their data.

It's a huge privacy feature. Also developers must tell Apple what kind of data they want to collect from the users. Users then see warnings on the AppStore.

Those are a few examples. But nothing like that exists for Android.

And your phone tracks and keeps a lot more sensitive data of you than a laptop or desktop computer. You also always have the phone with you.

So it's more important, that a smartphone has stronger protections and security measurements than a normal computer.

I wouldn't want an iOS concept on my MacBook, but I really want to keep it on iOS.

I really don't understand what the problems of you guys is. It sounds like, you're forced to buy an iPhone.
