I have a couple of questions regarding using Google services on Apple devices.

1) Is there any functionality (Siri, VIP, Time To Leave, whatever else there may be) that I will miss out on if I use Google's contacts and calendar sync on Apple's native apps as opposed to iCloud? Email will go through Google either way since that's where my domains are.

2) I'd like to use iCloud Photo Library and Google Photos side by side on my iPhone. Can GP still upload original quality copies of my photos if iCloud Photos app has Optimized Storage turned on, or does GP upload the lower res copies that Photos leaves on the device?

Thank you for reading.
