I am currently an IOS user, however, as the title suggests, I wish to switch to android. This is because I would prefer to use free software and not be locked into the apple ecosystem. That being said I am already locked into apple and would like to know how anyone else here has managed the switch.

I for one know I will face problems regarding group chats with friends and family on IOS, I will lose out on iCloud+ features, I will have to buy a replacement for my HomePod, I will need to replace apple home, etc.

How did anyone else here who has made such a switch replace or solve these issues?

    I’m using grapheneos and docs works just fine

    sheets should also work, I don’t see any reason why it shouldn’t

    and you probably haven’t read the website in a long while, grapheneos doesn’t support/recommend microg as it is an insecure/partial implementation of google services

    grapheneos has developed their own sandboxed play services, which act as a regular android app, it doesn’t get any special privileged access to imei or whatever stock oem android gives

    after installing this through the “apps” app, you can use grapheneos like regular oem android, but with better privacy and security features
