When it comes to Android and iOS, many people's first impression is that Android is more card, even if the current Android flagship is equipped with more and more memory, it is still eaten up by the APP - this matter is not to say, there have been technology bloggers have done tests, the same APP application Android occupies 3 times more memory than iOS.
Youtube technology blogger Gary Explain recently did such a test, he compared the memory occupation of different APP applications and game applications under the iOS and Android platforms, first look at the comparison of commonly used APPS.
In app apps, app apps on the Android platform take up significantly more memory than iOS, Twitter takes up 100MB under iOS but 366MB under Android, eBay apps take up less than 69MB under iOS, but 300MB under Android.
Of course, there are also some applications that occupy the gap is not so large, the memory occupied by the two app stores is about 217MB and 235MB, but this is a very small number, and most of the applications have a gap of 2-3 times or even higher.
The memory occupation gap between the 8 games on iOS and Android is much smaller, and some games on the Android platform occupy a higher level, but there is no app application that is several times the gap.
In general, app applications and games on iOS, Android occupancy has different performance, the game because it is native code, the gap between different platforms is not large, but the memory occupation of APP applications because the compilation methods of the two platforms are very different, the Android platform memory occupation is several times that of iOS, the demand for memory is higher, if the memory capacity is low, it is inevitable that there will be problems such as Caton.
