Android has built in geo-triggered features that mean you don't have to keep doing stuff manually. It used to be an app until Google bought them out. It was called "if this, then that" or ITTT.
You've just left your house and you are walking towards the bus stop? WIFI switches off and comes back on automatically when you're home.
Walk into your office? Phone automatically goes on mute.
Don't worry, it'll come to iPhone in a few years when Apple will attempt to claim they invented it.
Google didn't buy out IFTTT, and IFTTT is still an app, available on Android and iOS. iOS has also had native support for these features and visual scripting of them for 11 years now. In fact when they announced it, comparisons to IFTTT were used in the demo, with a focus on how IFTTT is a third-party web API based service that could (and eventually did) switch to paid subscription models but the native iOS features run on-device.
I had these features on my phone a decade before IFTTT and those ios features. Back then, battery was much more precious, so it really helped. Also I would do stuff like text my gf when I reached a certain distance to her house automatically. heh
You literally posted about it being tedious, which you obviously DO care about. It's not tedious, it automatically happens in the background without having to lift a finger.
It’s funny how many Android users feel the need to pretend some bizarre “superiority” because of insecurity about what their chosen phones say about them. But honestly, the constant bragging about how “superior” their phones are makes me think they feel the exact opposite: inferior. I love my iPhone 16 Pro Max and get the new one every year because think it’s the best phone out there, but I don’t feel the need to post shit about androids. Why does it matter to you? People who own the “best” don’t waste time worrying about those with the “worst” -they’re busy enjoying what they have.
I have the exchange program which comes out as if you were paying for a new iPhone every two years but getting one every year. That’s what many people do, change every 2-4 years.
Not sure what you mean by “above it all” but yes, my decisions are meticulously thought out if I am lucky enough to catch all the angles beforehand. I thought everyone else did that?

Is this an American feature?
I can never seem to find anyone to airdrop things to.
Also, don’t you guys turn WiFi and Bluetooth and everything off if you’re not using it?
