iOS push pull is better across the board - same with iOS outlook Vs outlook on windows and teams notifications.Plenty of content about it online, here's a few:
Google Issue Tracker

Also just the general user interaction within some of the Google Apps (but this also extends to other apps such as Reddit, X etc where there is just poor optimization by developers compared to iOS equivalent:
Google Maps runs much more fluid and smoother on iOS, no map rendering stutter or lag.
Same as above with Waze
YouTube seems to kick in higher quality much quicker.
My last Android was the S24 Ultra for comparison.
That doesn't equate to all of the Google suite apps being better on iOS as a fact....
Your comment re maps and YouTube dont ring true with me . No idea with Waze.
