Recently Apple has put up as survey to study why the users who are considering Apple are sticking to Android. After an extensive Apple Android survey they have concluded that the users considering Apple are still glued to Android, but there is nothing to do with this OS. 48 per cent stated that they choose Android over Apple mainly because they wanted to stay with their current service provider or carrier and not due to any special feature that the OS provides. The survey was started back in the month of January 2011 when Apple iPhone extended their offering through Verizon.
Other percentage of people has different causes to stay with Android. 36% has mentioned that they trust the Google brand while 27% are still sticking to Android due to the Android market. Certain other factors which are generally found in Android phones like larger screen and GPS turn by turn navigation came at 30% and 26% respectively. The graph below represents the outcome of the survey conducted by Apple. However it is to be noted that in an earlier version it is depicted that 43 per cent users preferred Android because of their service provider which now rose by 5 per cent to 48 per cent.
Also the current survey has indicated that about 25 per cent of Android users are considering shifting to iPhone at the moment. Thus the AT&T exclusivity of iPhone is proving to be a curse for Apple whereas Verizon Droid has undoubtedly proved to be a boon for the Android OS in the United States. If iPhone comes out of this exclusivity it might be able to grab an ample amount of the market and might also prove to be a heavy trouble over Android. After this survey it can be hoped that they might be extending their service through other providers but the surety of which can be provided by none but time.
