  All apps will work with the S3 a lot wont be availible to your SF and wont show up.
  Apps are cheaper on Apple more of them and better quality.
  Just an example Words for Friends on apple is 69p for the ad free version.
  Words for friends on android is £1.91 ad free.
  It costs more to make apps for android.

  If you're talking about availability, the S3 will pretty much have every decent app that the iP5 will have... however, android apps tend to have a free AD-COVERED version of apps that are not available for free on the iphone... while the iphone will have cheaper ad-free apps compared to the android ad-free counterpart.
  
  iphone apps tend to be designed better, but I would go for the S3 purely for its CPU/Graphics + battery. iP5 is unlikely to beat the S3 in terms of speed without destroying its effective battery life.
  
  and before you guys mark me as a droid fanboy; i love my iPhone 4 :D

  You can always download the full versions of apps on the SGS3 using aptoide, which the iPhone doesnt have, for free. The only thing you will miss out on is the iPhone exclusives such as infinity blade. But thats if you opt for SGS3.

  The Apps in google play ask for permissions like "send txts remotely without your permission" which I'm a bit concerned about, apple store seems more secure and with no virus's / malware

  Well my leaks are basically the SG3 is near the same specs as the 4s, so there is NO way that apple are not going to make the 5 better.
  
  Come on now, please use some common knowledge

  The biggest reason to stay with Apple is the fact that many developers won't make apps for the google play store as piracy is rife. I have honestly never met anyone who is unbiased ever say google play is better.

  I've had every irritation of the iPhone (Currently using an apple device), also the HTC Desire, HTC Desire HD and Samsung Galaxy S2.
  
  I'm pretty impartial when it comes to mobile operating systems, mainly as i'm a bit of a mobile addict, recently preordering the Samsung Galaxy S3 (Only due to free Galaxy Tab tho, otherwise i'd of waiting to see what the iPhone 5 brought).
  
  When it comes to applications, i have to say, iOS has Android beat hands down for both the selection and quality. Granted, it isn't massively different but if you like a simple device that 'Just works' and has all the apps you'll need, go for an iPhone.
  
  Then again... Over last 6-12 months i have seen developers concentrating on Android first - mainly due to the fact the platform has more reach now. It's also a far more 'fun' operating system if you like tinkering with things or widgets. Even i've got to admit, somebody who loves Apple's approach to UI, iOS is looking pretty tire now a days.

  I think my main problem is now whether or not the app market really utilize the quad core on the S3.
  Kind of pointless really.

  You're probably better off waiting for the iPhone 5 to be announced before deciding whether or not it's the phone for you. The 4S was an incremental upgrade in many ways so it's hard to say what the 5 will incorporate.
  
  Right now the smartphone market has somewhat plateaued which is why the S3 was somewhat underwhelming - the iPhone is still the only smartphone that can significantly move the whole market forward.
