  1. IOS and Android both are good operating system IOS is good if you just need a smartphone it has style it has looks iphone has it all and also you don’t want to many options but on the other hand Android is very user friendly but every application launches primarily on IOS then after a week later on Android it is hard to differentiate which is better but in mu personal opinion iPhone is better.

  5. Mohit,
    Thanks for putting out good content man, good good stuff!
    So, I have a question.
    I notice over on some of android app development sites, you often place infographics with just a small bit of text to introduce the blog post. What advantage do you feel that this has? It seems that at least putting the text in bullet points or a good summary of the infographic would help with SEO for the page, no?
