Each quarter, mobile experts compare the features and performance of iOS and Android smartphones. In the third quarter of 2017, Apple’s iPhones came out victorious in the battle, with the Android device failure rate (30 percent) being nearly double that of the iOS device failure rate (16 percent), according to the
Q3 2017 State of Mobile Device Performance and Health report released by
Blancco Technology Group (LON: BLTG).
Wrong information as usual. That is a click bait article above and the explanation is below. I'll take a updated O/S every month with a few app crashes than Android which is updated every 8 - 12 months.

An examination of mobile app crashes between Apple's iOS and Google's Android once appeared to suggest that apps crash significantly more often on iOS compared to Android. However, developers and analysts offer some explanations of why this occurring. As is often the case, the story behind the numbers is more nuanced and complex than a trivial clickbait headline can deliver.
Read the link for more. Basically the O/S is good, the apps aren't updated fast enough for how often Apple updates it's O/S which causes the apps to become unstable.
[doublepost=1539648313][/doublepost]Android is pretty pathetic if they can't keep their own built in apps from crashing.....so complain again about Apple apps which aren't even theirs.
The top crashing apps on Android are parts of Google's platform
Something else that jumps out from the comparison of apps running on iOS compared to the crash data of apps on Android: crashes occurring on Android weren't the most popular third-party apps in common use. They were mostly Google services that are core parts of Android.
While apps on Android were reportedly crashing less often, the crashes that were occurring were Google's IMS Service (messaging), Address Book, and the part of Android that is most likely to be upgraded frequently: Google Play Services. Other code among the top ten in crashes are other components of Android itself: Stock Android, Messages and Mobile Transfer. YouTube and Google's search app were also top ten crashers.
That left only two of the top ten crashing Android apps that are not Google's code: Samsung's TouchWiz (which showed up prominently among Android devices despite only appearing on Samsung's own phones) and of course, Facebook. Other more commonly-used third-party apps such as Instagram, Messenger and Snapchat didn't even make an appearance in Android's top ten list of crashing apps because the platform itself was out-crashing them.
So despite the headline illusion that Android was a better platform for apps because third-party titles were crashing less often, the reality is that Android was crashing a lot all by itself. And among hardware issues, the data outlined that Google's camera app was also a frequent failure on Android.
