If she only uses the browser and texting, whats to learn that’s different?

I actually push my family members to buy Apple products because then I dont have to provide tech support but tbh if their usage is just tapping on like 3 different icons, there’s really no difference between the two from a UI point of view. And a mid-range Android phone that allows you to tape those 3 icons is probably 1/5th the cost of an iPhone.
