App Store: To download any new app, iOS has App Store from where you can download any app, whether paid or free. It is entirely similar to the Google Play Store.

iCloud: On android, you have Google one to store your data and backup anytime on that Google account. Similarly, to get the same thing on iOS, it has iCloud but needs more memory for free users than Google Drive.

Save & Access PDF: Like for Android, we have plenty of apps to save and edit PDFs. But you can use the books app if you have an iOS device. This application is used on iOS devices that come pre-loaded or may require downloading from the App Store.

Apart from them, multiple apps provide the same experience as on android. Many types of apps exist, such as music apps, Safari apps (web browsers), and utilities. A few things are different, such as the menu navigation style or the options displayed. And if you want to find a file’s location, tap on that file and then on details.
