Promising "life is easier on iPhone," the website touts the Apple phones' cameras, speed, and customer support but it also has a not-so-subtle dig at Google's smartphone security record. "Unlike many other phones, important data on your iPhone is encrypted from the start and protected by your passcode," the Apple website reads. "Apple apps like Maps and Safari help to keep private all the places you go and the sites you visit, and Apple will not sell your information to anyone for any reason." But the Apple iPhone 7 claimed the title of most popular smartphone in Australia in March, according to Kantar Worldpanel, even though it's swamped by Android rivals. Apple previously published a guide on how to switch from Android to an iPhone to lure users in 2014, before releasing an official Move to iOS app in 2015.
