I’ve just moved over from android having never owned a iPhone of any sort(shock horror)

Really enjoying the 14 pro max it does so many things better than my old S21 ultra

Things I love

Face unlock thought I’d miss the finger print sensor but nope, feels so much slicker and seems to work no matter what the light or conditions are.

Animations seem really smooth

I might just be me but the apps that I’ve used so far seem to be “just better” take WhatsApp for example I send and receive voice notes and I’m positive the quality of the voices are better on iPhone

BitWarden is amazing on iPhone seems to work all the time now where as I’d find myself constantly having to log into it and copy and paste the passwords username as the android keyboard would never activate it.

The app icons all being the same is a big plus for me

FaceTime (is that’s what its called?) the video quality is Amazing compared to what I’m used to using WhatsApp or Facebook messenger on android.

Things I really dislike or find annoying

Notifications….. I’m sorry but android dumps all over Apple in this regard

Why can you not organise all your apps on the home screen alphabetically!! Just seems silly not being able to ( although it does become second nature quite quickly remembering where all the apps are on which screen etc)

The fact I need to go out and pick up the Apple Watch as my watch 4 won’t work on this phone but to be fair 300 quid for SE watch seems a steal plus it’s covered from me selling my old phone

All in all though so far glad I’ve made the switch !!

So a quick update, my iPhone 14 pro max turned up about a week after ordering it which was pretty quick considering.

Thoughts so far after a few days messing around with it.

The apps seem to be far more well designed, using BitWarden to log into apps on my S21 was a pain on times with this phone I click on the log in screen it scans my face and everything is filled in I only have to press enter and I’m all logged in seems far quicker and sleek.

I like the keyboard minimal looking but very nice to look at and I don’t seem to make as many typing mistakes so far anyway.

The Apollo Reddit app my god it’s amazing.

Face ID seems to work flawlessly, thought I’d miss the fingerprint sensor but not so far at least.

The ability to delete every app (so far at least) is great nothing more annoying than being stuck with preloaded apps that you will never use and can’t delete.

Camera is better than on my S21 ultra.

I know there’s no need really as I can keep my google email etc but I’m slowly changing websites that have my google email to the new Apple email I’ve now got

FaceTime the quality on the video calls is amazing far better than WhatsApp or messenger.

Talking off WhatsApp, I might be imagining this but if I get a WhatsApp voice message off someone who has a iPhone the voice recording seems to be better?

The mobile signal where I live is a lot better I can actually use mobile data indoors now where as I had to be connected to the Wi-Fi to receive calls use the internet on the S21

The only really annoying thing I’ve come across is not being able to order all my apps into alphabetical order on the Home Screen

Anyway I’m off into town now to sell my S21 and put the money to an Apple Watch 😂

Thanks for all the reply’s found them all very helpful.

That's what I did anyway added then one by one.

Gradually over time they all ended up in there 😊

When you enter the password for the first time Bitwarden asks if you want to save it, then next time you need to put the password in enters your username/email address etc along with your password

Thanks for all your inputs, all very much appreciated.

I only use my Gmail account really so I can use playstore (obviously)

So even if I did just make a apple email account it shouldn't be to much effort to change my email address on whatever websites/apps etc I use it for.

I'm sure I have OCD as it would drive me mad having more than one email account to remember and the fact iPhones are uniformed with style( app icons) etc really appeals to me

Only upgraded a few days ago so won't receive the phone till the 26th of this month so the wait is going to kill me I'm a child in a grown adults body 🤦

Thanks for taking the time to reply buddy. Hope you have a great day 🙂
