Google launched its latest Android 10 system a few days ago, which became available only immediately for Google's Pixel devices and this is because it is the spoiled son of them. After the release of the final version and testing it, it was found that the tenth system of Android had cited-or stolen- 6 important features of the iOS system, and they are the ones we will get to know in this article.

Six features that Google transferred from iOS to Android 10

And if one of you follows Google News, you will know that Google has abandoned the names of sweets in naming the systems, and the reason they announced is that the names of these sweets are not recognized in many countries according to their local culture. As for my point of view, I think Google wants its system to become more serious.

In general, it is known that any update that comes there will be advantages copied from others, so even Apple itself transferred some advantages from Android and put them In iOS 13. But this does not mean that Android is superior, it is innovative and Apple is imitation; Google is also copying from iOS to its system, and here are some examples:


1- Location Permission from iOS to Android

Google has recently been keenly interested in issues of protection and security in the new versions of Android and in the direction of the company in general, and this brings us to talk about the first feature, which is Location Permission, or "Location Permission." This feature allows you to allow a specific application to access your geolocation information only while it is being used, meaning that the application will not continue to access your location information after it leaves.

Of course, Apple also provides this feature, which you can access from the application settings itself, specifically the location settings, where you can prevent the application from using the location information at all or allow it to do so only while using it.

It is great that we find privacy and security settings in all the systems that we use, without biasing any system. Personally, I hope Microsoft takes care of this in the Windows system.

2- iPhone gestures on Android phones

Google received huge criticism when it introduced the Gestures system for the first time with the ninth version of Android, which is Android Pie, and this is because the company had not developed it sufficiently, but it launched it so as not to be late for the rest of the companies, especially Apple, which provided gestures for the first time in 2017 with i- IPhone X.

Now Google has transferred the mechanism of action of the gestures as they are from iOS to Android in the same way of implementation, except that the system still allows the three buttons and did not force users to dispense with them. As a side information: rumors have appeared that Google will force manufacturers of Android phones to apply the Android 10 gesture system in their phones, although all companies have already developed their own gesture system!

3 & 4 technologies, Audio Balancer and Sound Amplifier

If you go to the Accessibility page in the iPhone settings for your iPhone, you will find an option that allows you to create a balance between the left and right audio channels, and now this feature is also available for Android within the accessibility options. Of course, this option will be indispensable if you are in pain. Or weakness in one of your ears, God forbid.

As for the Sound Amplifier feature in iOS, it is this feature that came with version 12 of the operating system, which allows you to listen to the sound that the microphone captures through the AirPods or PowerBeats Pro if you have one of them, by activating the Live Listen feature within the Control Center. The same feature has become available in Android 10, but the difference here is that it is only supported through the speaker connected to the phone from the USB-C port. Perhaps the main purpose of this feature is to pretend you are listening to music and spying on those around you by capturing the microphone sound! I'm kidding you don't do this 🤦‍♀️


5- Share the Wi-Fi password on iPhone and Android

Perhaps you do not like to give your Wi-Fi password to guests or friends for whatever reason .. Here comes the Wi-Fi password sharing feature, through which you can share your Wi-Fi connection with anyone else without giving them the password, no Be sure this feature is also useful in public places and cafes.

As is the case with all of the above features, this feature has also become available in Android 10, but it works differently here as you will be able to share the Wi-Fi through the QR Code. And in my opinion, too, these are the most important features I have migrated to Android.

6- Support for eSIM cards

In fact, eSIM technology did not appear with the iPhone XS only, as it was available from the Pixel 2 phone, but was exclusive only to the Google Project Fi project, and now the feature is available for all Android phones operating with the latest version, except that of course, activating this feature will require additional hardware as Most of the time he will need local support from telecom companies.
