Could you elaborate on this? Only having one iOS device, I'm not too familiar with how the sync feature works there. But between my two Android devices syncing is very good.
When I add a new appointment in my calendar it appears on the other device. It also syncs Hangouts instant message conversations in real time. Photos are synced whenever I charge (by my choice, it could happen at any point but I'd rather wait for charging) and e-mails, address book entries, and created documents also appear on both devices. The same is true for my regular web browsing: my search history, bookmarks, passwords and URL history is also synced.
The only thing that's not synced that I would like to be synced is reminders created in Google now. If I'm on my tablet and say "Hey Google, when I get to Food Basics, remind me to buy milk" it will not sync to my phone, so when I get to Food Basics it won't remind me. Unless I bring my tablet that is, but I never do, so...
Anyway, if iOS is actually better than what I described above, it'd be cool to hear in what way. I know this post may come across as if I'm a butthurt Android defender, but I genuinely want to know if there's something more to syncing that what I'm getting right now.
