Android's multiple user profiles highlight an iOS limitation
Original: There are things I will never understand. On Android I have at least two users, one for the main things and one for test
A tech user is questioning why iOS does not support multiple user profiles, saying they rely on Android's user accounts feature to separate daily use from testing. Android has allowed multiple users on one device for years, useful for work-life separation or app testing, while iPhones remain restricted to a single user profile. Others online are debating whether Apple's omission is a real limitation or rarely needed by most users.
Why now: Users are comparing Android and iOS capabilities, and profile separation is a longstanding point of difference between the platforms.

- There are things I will never understand. On Android I have at least two users, one for the main things and one for testing. On iOS this is not possible, and for me it is a big limitation. # iOS # Android · stefano@bsd.cafe · 6
