Apple Shares New 'Switching to iPhone' Video for Android Users

Lots of people posting their salt here today. "But but no browser engines" . "but but but no dolphin emulator". "but but but its definitely not secure"

Okay then fine, simply dont buy the iphone. Sorry the advertisement did such a good job catching your attention. Stop wasting everyones time being a cringy whiny salt bath. Apple never declared they were going to make everyone happy, if you are one of those who wont be happy then dont switch.

It’s so funny how far ahead Android was in terms of software now each year, it seems like Apple is nearing the playing field. It’s puzzling how much Google dropped the ball with stock customization.

I'm not a WhatsApp user because Facebook, but it's pretty huge for some people. I was migrating some relatives over to iPhone who had lots of years of history here, and this was nearly a deal breaker.

WhatsApp itself CANNOT DO IT - your message history is all stored on your device. The only way to do it is with dodgy 3rd party software which started installing viruses on my desktop as well.

So yeah, anyway, think about the apps you care about and research them.

You can now transfer WhatsApp conversations between iOS and Android.

After watching the movie and how it is made, I wouldn't buy an iPhone /
 
Apple should make a "Switching to Android Phone" app to help out the people here who are perpetually unhappy with Apple, but have yet to muster up some agency to switch and find happiness.

I don't think that's true.

You have access to your message history when using the web browser version, or if you set your new phone up instead of restoring from a backup.

I can't tell whether you have really ate up Apple's BS, sorry, Apple's marketing campaigns... or you are being sarcastic. If it is the latter, I like you.

How about independent 3rd party studies that confirm it? And it's not by a small margin either.

The iPhone is not as flawless as Apple thinks it is. Samsung makes some good devices now and as someone that uses both.....I think innovation is more on the Android side today. Apple puts in features Android had years prior and pretends they invented it. My Galaxy watch is 100% more reliable than either the AW7 or 3 I have owned. The iPhone has not really evolved much over the last few years. One thing is for sure they need to get a foldable out cause I am not going back to a slab for my non-work phone. Is Android perfect....no...but nor is iPhone. The Android market moves the tech forward and Apple just plays catch up for the most part. They have the resources and money to be at the forefornt but they would rather milk everyone on the same tired tech for a decade.

Honestly speaking. Can you please give us some examples where your Apple watch was unreliable? I would agree that both Apple and Galaxy watches are reliable, but for you to claim "MORE reliable", is complete bs and you know it. I have never seen nor heard of an Apple watch being unreliable, so you really should try to elaborate a bit more to help us all understand, clearly you are the expert on the subject so I am lucky I came across this comment so that I can ask to learn more. Thanks for your time replying.

Lies, damned lies [and statistics😙]. I searched and searched for a real firewall app on the AppStore. Nowhere to be found.😒 To be fair, you can't find a real firewall app on the PlayStore either.😑 I had to sideload a proper (full featured) firewall app on my Android phone.

The only reason I rooted my phone was for the firewall.
