According to multiple reports and surveys, Android users are now more likely to switch to using an iPhone than they’ve ever been before…<\/span><\/p>\n

What’s that report says that 25% of US users already consider switching to iPhone, and another survey says that Android is losing more and more users, as the beloved OS has gone from 77.32% market share to 69.74% in just four years, of course, thanks to people switching to iOS (iPhone). In fact, Apple even made a special “Switching to iPhone” video that answers frequently asked questions and preps Android users for a switch to iPhone 13 and iPhone 14.All that being said, why is 2022 the year when so many Android users are expected to jump ship? As you can imagine, there isn’t a one-word answer, as Apple’s been making reliable and appealing phones for ages now, meaning that if certain Android users ever wanted to switch, they could’ve done so a long time ago.<\/p>\n

So, let’s take a look at what might push Android users to switch to iPhone and iOS and answer the more important question, which is whether Android users should really consider an iPhone because of iOS 16 and iPhone 14 or wait for the iPhone 15 series, which (spoiler) is what I’m planning to do\u2026<\/p>\n

Apple’s plan for attracting Android users involves a lot of iPhones, customizable and reliable software, and great marketing<\/h2>\n

In a nutshell, Apple’s always had a plan for converting Android users into “Apple sheep”, as Android users like to say. In the grand scheme of things, this involves Apple’s second-to-none marketing, Cupertino’s nearly spotless reputation for making reliable phones, and best-in-class customer service.<\/p>\n

However, when it comes to this time of the year and the switch to iPhone 13 and iPhone 14, Apple has a few more tricks up its sleeve…<\/p>\n

What will help Apple convert Android users in 2022-2023<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The amazing new customization features coming with iOS 16. Apple will finally let you make your iPhone truly personal – you know, like an Android phone. iOS 16’s lock screen will now be more customizable than that of an Android phone; you also get dynamic wallpapers, possibly the best implementation of interactive widgets we’ve ever seen; fonts. On top of that, iOS 16 will allow you to perform some smart tasks like easily finding duplicate photos, batch editing photos, unsend an iMessage and even using iPhone as your Mac webcam\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • In terms of hardware, Apple’s preparing its most aggressive lineup of iPhones ever, giving into the trend of bigger phones with the iPhone 14 Max that replaces the iPhone mini; high-res cameras (which will play a big marketing role), and next-level performance thanks to a new cooling solution (that Android’s had for ages)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      • Despite the fact that iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are expected to see a price jump, some reports say that people are more willing to spend money on a flagship<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • At $800-900 and in the world of $1,200 Android flagship phones, the vanilla iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max should be surprisingly affordable, but Apple also holds a major wildcard in the face of the iPhone 13, which is expected to drop in price to only $700, which might revive the interest in this excellent phone<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
