IOS vs ANDROID farm

Hey yall,

i wanna make a new fully automatic farm for IG & Threads. Is imousexp and all of that for IOS still a good thing to invest in?
OR is panda with androids better?

Whats the best way to automate it fully? Or is making a own API panel smarter/cheaper/better? Also android should be easier to spoof/run since its easier to crack correct?

The Android operating system is easier to use but also carries more risks; I recommend using the safer software of iOS.

iOS for trust is way better, it's proved in practice that they are more trusted. Regarding panel is don't suggest to create your own, also make sure you have high quality mobile proxies in them.

For a phone farm, IOS is more truster. And it's easier to manage technically speaking

fr? Ive heard the opposite. Ive heard its so easy fuckable with automated tasks.

I can't speak for API those are for intelligent people and I'm pretty sure I'm not one of them

I'm saying this in the context of running multiple accounts on a single phone

iOS gives apps less access to device data and generally tends to have a higher trust score for socials
your set up would be jailbroken iPhone 8 8+ or X with Crane and you can run as many account as your phone allow
automating this set up is the hard part

Android exposes more data to apps
To change the device fingerprint for each account, you usually need root. the downside is that root can lower the device's trust score, so you need a way to bypass root detection If you're planning to use Magisk i don't think that's enough. Kernel root seems like a better option, and you still have to deal with Play Integrity I'd love to hear from experienced Android farmers. Is this actually possible? Some people say they use custom root solutions to do it

As for proxies, I think a SIM card with rotating mobile IPs is enough. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think it's as important as people make it sound ( for example, I use Instagram on my home Wi-Fi, mobile data, and work Wi-Fi. That's already several different IPs every day but hey, that's just my opinion )

for Instagram, I think behavior matters more nobody spends 8+ hours a day on the app or does the exact same actions every session so some randomness is necessary to prevent accounts from being clustered

Mentioning the OGs of automation on this forum @AllOutAnime @lucky.sparks it would be a pleasure to hear your thoughts on this as well

In my opinion, iOS is more secure than Android in terms of security. iOS has a stricter app review process, so I recommend using iOS instead of Android.

Not really worth chasing device spoofing farm any longer; IG/Threads detection is much more ML-based/behavior-based these days, not simply OS-based. Whether it is iOS or Android or iMouseXP/Panda-style stuff, that isn't going to keep your accounts alive for too long.
If you're after scalability, then the only slightly safe path is Meta Graph API legitimate management layer. Any full automation farm approach is essentially high churn

IOS is good for reels since they seem to have a higher trust score compared to older Samsung phones. The newer Samsung Phones work good; however devices such as the Samsung s10; or s9; they are not the best for reels; the newer versions are.

This is a complex solution and a deep rabbit hole.
I tried to find a "perfect solution" for many years but I could never find it.
Basically if you have a stock phone without automation everything is good but as soon as you multi account the device will have similar or same identifiers on all accounts and you will get flagged.
As soon as you use automation, you will get flagged.
You can get jailbreak or root to change identifiers but this will flag you as well.
Google play integrity gets more important over time as well. Phones with unlocked bootloader will hardly pass it.

Same with iphones, only the older phones can get jailbroken.
I would think all devices that are capable of using a jailbreak have lower trust.
All platforms know about publicly available tools or automations.

Given that there is no easy "perfect solution", I would go with the lowest hanging fruit that works for your use case.

You mentioned you want to run on IG but not what you want to do.
Creating accounts requires different set-up than just running accounts which would be much easier.

I would start with android because iOS is much more brittle and automations break easily.
There are many providers that let you rent some android phones so you can test your set-up before you buy, I have never seen that with iOS.

Android easier to use but lower trust score

A custom API solution only becomes worthwhile if you're operating scale and can justify the development and maintenance costs. iOS setups can still work but they're usually more expensive and less customizable. For most people android + panda is the more flexible and cost effective option.
