Android is based on Linux kernel and currently developed by Google. The iOS kernel is XNU, the kernel of Darwin. iOS is created and developed by Apple Inc. and distributed exclusively for Apple hardware.
Android is an open source OS. iOS is close sourced with some open source components however Darwin is open source on which the iOS is based.
As it is open sourced it can be customized a lot . Google publishes most of the code (including network and telephony stacks) under the non-copyleft Apache License version 2.0. which allows modification and redistribution. It cannot be customized easily unless jailbroken. Jailbreaking is the process of removing hardware restrictions on iOS the use of software and hardware exploits; Jailbreaking permits root access to the iOS file system and manager, allowing the download of additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store.
