I said Apple got 1st mover advantage, which is what that means, they got more blind/deaf/a11y needing users than android first. Most never bothered to switch off, because there is no reason to.

> longer device operating system updates and Apple Stores for in person support

That's outside of a11y stuff, irrelevant for this context. Though I agree, for non-technical users, if you happen to live near an Apple store, it's a way better experience than any Android phone when something goes wrong.

How is it irrelevant? Apple comes out with better accessibility features every year and I’m sure Google does too.

You don’t see any difference between getting feature updates for years on your existing device than not getting updates?

And on top of that, you can pick any iOS device and know you’re going to get a good device where all of the features work well and not have to worry about OEM and carrier installed alternatives that aren’t well supported.
