Recently got a pixel as a secondary work phone and was reminded that I actually kinda like android (my main is an iPhone). Problem is mostly that I don’t want an even higher level spyware device. Of course I could use graphene but I use Apple Pay, find my / AirTags regularly and I also would need to find good alternatives to iCloud, and photos which I honestly kind of like. I suppose I could possibly get a pixel watch and get around the pay limitations but maybe some users who have switches might have some general insight.

Edit: I guess my best option right now is to stick with my current plan of both devices and maybe see what oem graphene partners with and if that somehow changes anything

    Samsung galaxy smart tags are a thing and Find too, I’m using it on a daily basis.

    I use Syncthing as an alternative to iCloud to sync files between devices. But there is also NextCloud and even commercial offerings like DropBox.

    For Photos I use Immich and it’s amazing.

    And at least here in Korea Samsung Pay works everywhere while my wife with Apple Pay has to carry coach or a credit card with her everywhere she goes.
