iPhones are literally only usable as phones

Troll much?

That’s a pretty absurd take. The phone portion of the iPhone is probably the least used feature on my device.

No, they don’t let you customize them outside of what apple says you can do (one of the things I hate about apple is how restrictive they are because they assume customers are idiots and apple wants extreme control of its image, and customers like being treated like idiots), but they are pretty much as useful as any smart phone or tablet. There definitely are some caveats to that, but you need to be looking for pretty advanced tools before you run into barriers on iOS devices.

The fact that an app has to be on the Apple app store in order to be installable is what makes them useless to me.

The advanced tools are why android is the only option for a mobile office. I really do wish there was more competition from Apple in the space. They make incredible products, they're just corrupted by an absolutely ridiculous business model of wall gardens.
