Sigh, hee.
I see featureset as the functions such as apps, messages, calling, taking photos etc. Settings icon or Settings in General on iOS is there, well, to change settings. Android has more of all this, but i dont see that makes it complicated.
The look does. Hard to explain. OK, take an Android phone, remove widget and busy homescreen, you more or less end up with icons on grids. Make that look like iOS. I'd say that would look inviting and easy
iOS is just a clean set of rows of icons, what you see is what you get.. Android is the same but all dressed up in ugly colours, fonts and widgets, and that homescreen. Strip the widgets, make the colours, fonts and style of whats left to the iOS look, thats clean ansd not complicated, well my opinion anyway.

Ok. The feature set is simple but the UI is complicated? But this is better, how? This is where apple shines I think. The UI or device tends to stay simple and intuitive at the expense of a less impressive feature set. And. It seems they sell more by doing so. Less better than more crappily.

I didnt say that, :-)
I get the impression that some feel Android is complicated. It is, just look at it
What I meant was the featureset (OK I shoulda mentioned its functions) isn't complicated, its the UI that is. Widgets, and the colours, style and fonts is what looks bad. Take away widgets, replace the look with the iOS look and I reckon its looks nice, and intuitive
Underneath it all Android and iOS are the same style, grid based icons.. 95% of what they do is the same, either similar or sorta similar. Android though has its silly busy homescreens, and an old immature look, whereas iOS is the clan look. In short, Andoid dressed in the style of iOS would look clean and easy to use. iOS dressed in Androids style would look harder

I wouldn't refer to an overly complicated user interface a feature. In fact, personally, I would call a complicated user interface a distraction or a fault. A distraction or obstruction to the user and a fault of the programmer for not presenting things in the simplest and most user friendly and accessible means possible.IMO YMMV~KLM\\01001100 01001111 01001100//Clarify?

I wouldn't call it a feature to complicated.~KLM\\01001100 01001111 01001100//
IMO Android being or seeming complicated is not the featureset its the UI
