Apple VS Android: Google fanboys ridicule 'iSheep' in reviews for Move to iOS app
Apple's first Android app has been mocked and ridiculed on the Play Store
APPLE has launched its first Android app – Move to iOS – which allows people to migrate from Android to iPhone. And Google fanboys are not happy about it.
 
Apple has rolled out its first Android app, Move to iOS.
The simple application is designed to help those hoping to move to an iPhone by securely transferring data from an Android handset to iOS.
But Google fanboys were not best pleased by the Cupertino company's debut in the Google Play Store.
 
Hordes of enraged Android fanboys flooded the app with one star reviews.
One reviewer posted: "Seriously? You think people want to move to a restricted ecosystem that won't even allow you to try apps before you buy?? 
"Google why did you allow them to put this app here? 
"Oh that's right you promote innovation and don't charge for it or place restrictions on it..actually - I am surprised Apple isn't charging $20 for the app."
 
The Move to iOS app currently has more than 4,600 one-star reviews.
"Apple's first android app? What a bloody disgrace!," scorned one Google Play Store review, "I call on my fellow android comrades to ensure this app gets drowned into oblivion with a 1 star rating never to be seen again on our cherished platform. 
"I've given it one star only because they won't allow a similar app on the App-Store, to move to Android (or any other platform for that matter). 
"The idea is ok, but the opposite cannot be done, and that's not a fair competition and not thinking about the customers' right to choose their own device."
 
Another blasted Apple's plans to move Android users to iOS, "Ohh now you want Android users!
"Now you want Android users to switch to your so called premium products where you copy features from other ecosystem and say pathbreaking technology. Don't need one."

Android fans were not best pleased with the app
One Google Play Store review even compared the iPhone manufacturer to North Korea.
"If Apple was a country it would be North Korea," the review grumbles.
"Looks like Apple wants to attack our freedom and control everything we do on our phone and also charge us a bomb for it in this process. 
"Thank you very much for trying this cheap tactic but I am very satisfied where I am and what phone I am using. 
"Now you can go ahead sulk and try this on iSheeps which I am sure will definitely surrender to you. Peace."
Despite the poor rating on the Google Play Store, it has been a bumper fortnight for Apple.
The US technology firm is on track to sell a record 10 million iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus handsets next weekend.
It also rolled out its latest operating system update, iOS 9.
