Yes unless you are using graphene, apple has better privacy than google devices hands down. With google you are the product, so they have inventive to collect as much data on you as possible for ads. This is why I eventually switched from my android to apple.

I like apples decision to hide eye movement from apps, that would have been insanely invasive.

Graphene is the way to go.

Apple and Google are essentially surveillance companies.

Apple accounts/iCloud accounts retain an impressive amount of data that would make the secret police of the 20th century blush. And this data can be seized by governments without you as a user being aware of it.

Google collects even more.

Unless you are using Advanced Data Protection, in which case Apple does not have access to the data stored in your iCloud account.

Yeah, that does protect more data for sure. Not everything, but a lot more.

I have never run into someone during an investigation using this protection. You have to opt into it, so as you can imagine, most don't.
