Anyone noticed this? Left is android emulator, right is ios simulator It's the same image, yet the colors look different, why?
a
iPhone probably uses a different color space

It's unavoidable, different screens are calibrated differently, OSes might have different color spaces selected by default
u
well its a screenshot from my mac, both next to each other

Yes, but different applications can use different color spaces
The iOS sim probably uses the native color space, the android emulator probably uses a different one, considering it's being rendered in a swing/awt context
Or it could be android os itself using a different color space when rendering
I wouldn't worry too heavily about it
u
okay so its the simulator vs emulator debate
a
Android is probably using sRGB or something, iOS is probably truetone

That's just my guess
