How distinct is Android and iOS memory management?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each approach?
The advantage of the garbage collector approach is that it frees developers from the responsibility of memory management. However, it can lead to unpredictable pauses in the application's behavior during garbage collection. On the other hand, ARC provides tighter control over memory usage, but developers have to manage memory manually, which can be error-prone.
