Mobile operating system is a light weight
operating which is used in mobile device. Some operating
systems have additional features like sensor embedding
and also OTG. In this paper we are going to compare
between android and iPhone Operating System (iOS)
mobile operating systems that available in the market
which is more specific various issues. The issues which we
are going to discuss in this paper is not only concern to
mobile customers but also concern to software developers.
The security requirements for MOS are Memory
Randomization, Encryption, Data Storage Format and
Built-in Antivirus. Memory randomization ensures that the
memory regions of mobile application as well as system
shared libraries are all randomized at device and
application start-up. In this paper we want compare and
analyse the operating system of the Android and iOS.

In this paper we have compared iOS and Android and
we find the both have their advantages and
disadvantages. iOS development requires a specific type
of hardware that may be more difficult to obtain — but
that might encourage cross-departmental collaboration
and expose us to another operating system. The bar for
Android is somewhat lower, as development can take
place in any modestly equipped computer science
laboratory. If we compare according to cost Android is
much cheaper than iOS as android is freeware and
device that support android is cheaper compared to iOS
devices. The error reporting feature of iOS is much
better then android as it give a live support to the users.
And the hardware used to install iOS is much better then
android. Regarding security issues iOS is fully secured
and there is no need of any antivirus while android have
some security issues. Overall comparison state that iOS
is better than android but by cost wise android is better.
