Everybody owns a smartphone nowadays. These gadgets have helped simplify work, entertainment and communication for most people. The most popular smartphone operating system is the Android which is developed by Google, followed by iOS which is developed by Apple. Windows is ranked the 3rd operating system among cell phones and it is manufactured by Microsoft. Google Android has gained a lot of popularity over Apple and Microsoft because it is open sourced and anyone can use it while manufacturing their phones.
