IOS on Andriod - Swineflu813 - Dec 27, 2017

*** Before you start ragging into flames, let me explain ***

- I love Andriod & I love the Iphone as well, so I'm Phone Bi-sexual lol

My question is more so to the production of Replica phones from China. I see many rapid produced Iphone Clones on the market, but they all have an Android operating system. Why is this? Is there really no way possible to actually fully install an IOS operating system on an "android" phone?

It is intentionally difficult to install iOS on anything other than a legitimate Apple device. It's not worth the effort because there is no benefit to accomplishing the task. Even if you could get all the required hardware to build a knock off clone, iOS wouldn't allow you to use the app store or any Apple service on a clone.

The IOS operating system is pretty locked by Apple. You can use a custom theme to get somewhat close to the look and feel of IOS, but I doubt you get the app store, imessage etc. to work.
