Quick questions. Thinking about switching back to Android this weekend with a Samsung S26 after being on iphone for 6.5 years. I shouldn't have any problems copying over everything I need but I wanted to ask questions about Do Not Disturb and using the phone as an Alarm clock. Last time I had an Android phone I didn't use/need these functions but now I do.

Hope this doesn't sound dumb, but I should be able to setup my Alarm clock to work the same as how it has been on my iphone with no problems I assume? Should work exactly the same?

Secondly, I rely heavily on Do Not Disturb from 9pm to 6am so that I won't get woken up at 2am by notifications about junk email coming in, while yet allowing the my alarm to go off at 5am. And also while allowing ONLY calls and notifications to come through from my wife and son as the only exceptions. No problems doing the same thing on the S26?

No problems at all. There are modes you can set up for sleep etc and you can choose what or who you allow to contact/notify you when those modes are active.

Excellent, thank you. I just wanted to check first before buying and ending up in possible regret.
