Fun fact: Android is older.

Technically correct, but it was originally aimed at Blackberry. https://www.pcworld.com/article/464050/original_android_prototype_revealed_during_google_oracle_trial.html

Apple pioneered a moderately useful mobile browser and fully touch screen UI (except for the home button).

They've been copying each other ever since, to the point where I watch the WWDC keynote thinking "they didn't already have THAT!?" most of the time.

More like Apple copies an android feature that is more than a decade old then claims it as some kind of innovation.

slaps a buzzword on it and makes a trillion. Can't believe some iphone users consider widgets modetn

My old boss would always buy the new IPhone the day it came out and brag about features and a lot of the times I would be scratching my head being like how is that different then what I have on my 4 year old android Galaxy 6??

Now they do, but the iPhone was revolutionary when it was released. Apple literally changed the world with their invention.

To this day whenever I hear people say Apple invented the smart phone I sigh. Maybe that's technically true or not depending on how you want to count it. But what irks me is how people think it was brilliant. Like bro, I was browsing on the go with my Zune and PSP years before the iPhone came out. The only things we can thank Apple for are the two worst parts of a smart phone. Apps and the phone.

But jobs didn't want apps on the iPhone, it was only planned for the iPad that would only come years later. He kind of got strong armed into putting it on the iPhone as well (and I doubt it would have been as successful as it did if Jobs had had his way)
