Android Vs. iOs: Which One Is The Best? And... Which is the best if you're a software developer?
I get this question a lot and I felt like creating a video to answer this question.
Android and iOS are basically the biggest mobile platforms, now, in 2016. Both Android and iOS have its strengths and weaknesses. Which one should you prefer if you're a software developer?
According to Comscore (http://www.comscore.com/), both Android and iOS have its specifications that every software developer should be aware of:
- iPhone Users are Slightly Younger and More Affluent
- Android Users Have Broader Content Category Reach, Despite iOS Users’ Higher Propensity
- iPhone Users More Likely to Engage in M-Commerce
- iPhone Satisfaction Corresponds with High Device Loyalty
- Developers Should Think About What’s Most Important Before Developing an App
Every software developer should think and do a very detailed research before developing an app, no matter what platform do they choose.
Is iOS better and more reliable? Does Android offer more options to work as a developer and, thus, will be the future?

Do you lie to yourself?
If you do, then you're about to destroy your entire life and career! Lying to yourself is one of the worst things you can do to yourself.
Most of us don't actually seek out truths. Instead, we try to avoid even finding them out.
There are places in your life that are screwed up. There are insecurities which you have inside that you don't wanna face. But, you REALLY need to face it.
If you really want to be successful you need to be true to yourself. Lying to yourself in all (or just in specific) areas of your life will be very harmful to you.
If there is one advice I could give you is... Don't life to yourself. Instead, choose to face reality.

You feel like you can't go on with your life. You feel trapped and nothing that you do seems to work. You're trapped inside of your own life.

If we really want to be successful and start creating value to other people, we need to make this shift and turn this proportion upside down. We need to start to produce 70% of our time and leave the other 30% to learn and consume new stuff.
