What do you wish you knew before switching to an iphone?<p>The family uses iphones/ipads and my comic stubbornness is finally reaching the end of its utility and becoming annoying. I'm looking for checklists or tips on how to migrate with the least amount of pain and breakage. Not only from Pixel to iphone, but also from Google Fi (which is great) to one of the mega-carriers (all of which I've previously used and disliked).<p>My last iphone was a 7, so it's been awhile. My main concerns are will 2FA break? Can I keep using Google for photos and docs or does everything need to be on icloud? Is there anything as good as Firefox with UBO? What else do I not know and should be careful with?
> Is there anything as good as Firefox with UBO?<p>The DuckDuckGo iOS app blocks ADs and trackers. Also ADGuard Pro can block stuff at the network level. It only costs $10.00 for a one time purchase.<p>> My main concerns are will 2FA break?<p>Make sure to export your QR code TOTP seed images into a new iOS app. Most TOTP apps allow you to do this. I like the app 2FAS[0].<p>> Can I keep using Google for photos and docs or does everything need to be on icloud?<p>The whole suite of Google apps are available on iOS.<p>[0] <a href="https://2fas.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://2fas.com/</a>
I would strongly suggest you and your family subscribe to iCloud. It reduces most back up issues to background noise, and makes a lot of things like setting up new devices, and using using notes or calendars on different devices even easier than on Google products (which I also use regularly and like).<p>Plus, you get the all important green text on one of your apps, which I don’t quite understand, but which I know is super important.
> Is there anything as good as Firefox with UBO?<p>Consider trying Orion. I use it on macOS, not on iPhone, but would love to try it on the phone too. It supports UBO as far as I know.
The plan is this- Get an iPhone- use the move to iOS app. It transfers everything over. You just need to login to some things again. And hey presto your on iOS.<p>Welcome to the brighter side
