A study says that Apple and Google dominate the iPhone and Android thanks to their pre-installed applications on smartphones, and this means that they do not play fair, which eliminates external applications and prevents them from competing with the applications of the two companies. What is the story of this study and what were its results?
Apple and Google
If you use an Android phone or an iPhone, the majority of your most used apps on your device are probably made by Apple and Google. This is the summary of a new study done by Comscore, the statistics and analysis company, and commissioned by the social network Facebook (An enemy of Apple), where the results of the study showed that the majority of the applications that people use on their phones in the United States come pre-installed by Apple and Google.
Facebook Study
The study says that the basic pre-installed applications on smartphones such as weather, photos, clock, etc., make it difficult for other third-party applications to compete against the applications of the two companies.
Perhaps the importance of that study is due to the appropriate timing, which is what Facebook intended, as Apple and Google are currently increasingly under scrutiny for their preference for their services over competitor apps such as Spotify, and US lawmakers are currently reviewing a new set of bills designed to limit the power of the tech giants there, including legislation. That would potentially prevent both Google and Apple from giving their services the upper hand against competitors' apps.
Although Apple and Google dominate the phones through their pre-installed applications, the criticism is more powerful on Apple, since it controls more tightly the applications that come pre-installed on the iPhone and does not allow developers to circumvent its own App Store.
Apple and Google reaction
Google declined to comment while Apple rejected the results of the study and its spokesperson said the survey was funded by Facebook It has nothing to do with reality and gives the wrong impression that there is no competition on the App Store, but the truth is otherwise, and external applications compete with Apple applications without any problem.
Finally, returning to the results of the Facebook study, we find that in the iOS system there are 5 external applications among the top 20 applications, that is, 15 applications belonging to Apple, and in the Android system there are 13 applications belonging to Google among the top 20 applications, and this already proves the dominance of Apple and Google on the Android and iOS systems - iPhone, and the study did not mention Safari and Chrome browsers, and if they were included, Apple and Google would have seemed more dominant.
The question here is, is there fierce competition on the App Store, the truth is yes, but this does not negate the fact that the pre-installed applications of Apple and Google have the advantage and rise to the top.

Thank you for this nice topic
I will not replace my iPhone with a moldy Android system, the Android system feels like you are sitting in the bathroom in the middle of a public road and people are watching you… Android system created for spying only
Google and Apple have the right to preserve their rights, and if Facebook wants to compete or other companies make their own devices and systems, then there will be fair competition
What prevents me from using Apple apps as long as they benefit me and dispense with any competitor?!
And do not forget the advantage of the integrated and harmonious system with some. Is my work scattered with different programs?!
Why are they not prosecuting Facebook because they stole most of the features of Snapchat and Telegram, and most of the features of competing programs for them, and after they acquired important programs such as WhatsApp and Instagram. I mean, what exactly do they want?!
They are weird!
The Facebook company is spying on its users and the evidence is to mention the name of a product and enter the Facebook and Instagram application and you will get the product you spoke about, they mean they are listening in on their users
The comments of my brothers, may God preserve them, rejoice the heart.. A conscious Arab Muslim youth.. The study of the despicable Zionist company is zero on the north and has no value.. It is the mother of monopoly and it is where you talk about monopoly!!!! Indeed, if you are not ashamed, do whatever you want.
Brother Nasser, I know it is an American company, but its founder is a despicable Zionist Jew who supports the State of Israel.. What do you expect from him?
frankly retarded
A company that develops a natural operating system that degrades programs that give the user an integrated experience of the operating system and any attempt to prevent this means depriving the user of the integration capabilities as part of the operating system
By the same logic, let Microsoft remove the Edge browser, the mail application, paint and 3d paint from Windows under the pretext of competition
And then Google has an open system and Android mobile companies when they release their modified version of the Android interface usually remove some Google programs and download their programs
Is it also a monopoly?
The allegation is retarded, false and malicious
Who remembers how the Facebook application was pre-installed on the Senbian system in Nokia devices of the last generation!!!
The question today, if the Facebook application was installed by default in Android and iOS, would we have seen Facebook funding for this study???
If there is a better application than Apple or Google applications, it is always bought by large companies, and this is the domination and killing of competition and it applies to Facebook as well.
Study Facebook do not buy it with an onion.
First: Because it is hateful of Apple due to the privacy policies that have reduced Facebook's profits from spying on humans.
Second: Because Zberberg is an infringer on human privacy without their permission, and who has pushed out all competitors by buying their companies, he has no right to criticize such practices and he is doing the same.
Third: Apple's applications are actually more compatible with its system than any other application.
Finally, we hope that Apple will ease its strictness with regard to giving the opportunity to those who wish to download programs other than its programs at the beginning of using the operating system, so that the user is the one who has the choice and what to use on his device.
This indicates the professionalism in creating applications and increasing their effectiveness with users and their love for them
If you want to expose yourself in public and everyone knows what you are browsing, open an account on Facebook
External applications could not compete with Apple and Google applications, in addition to that they are paid continuously, monthly or annually, and not for one time.
How I hate the Zionist Facebook company and its Zionist founder
The enemies of success
Facebook Inc
Not a Zionist!!!
