# There are reasons why a lot will not go to Apple
Take their approach to apps. If they don't want you to install it, you can't. And when people tried to jailbreak their phones to install non-Apple approved apps, they were attacked by Apple lawyers. Its your device, but they won't let you do what you want with it.

Support wise is terrible too. They ended support for iPhone 3 less than two years after they stopped selling it. Most mobile contracts are 2 years these days. So people are stuck with phones that Apple refused to protect from ongoing mallware threats.

And as for viruses...
