Been a life long android user, but spent the last 3 years on iPhone, before now being back on S24 Ultra.
I like having things in my phone work together, and I know I can make it happen, and that it’s there by some degree from the start. But after using my phone, fresh for about a week, it’s annoying and confusing how I keep getting notifications to “set up Google Drive for this”, then “Use OneDrive for that”, “Don’t forget about setting up your Samsung Backup, now through OneDrive!”
Update “Samsung store”, update “Play store”. Set up your Samsung user, Google user, Microsoft user. Then there’s the “Photo gallery from Google”, the “Gallery from Samsung”.
Don’t get me wrong, I like having a choice, and I’m fine with the different ecosystems. I just think the phone should come with one or the other. And if not, at least limit notifications to one by default.
It’s hard to tell from the interface and sometimes logo, which one is Google and which one is Samsung. And they don’t really intertrate together, especially in relation to backups.
That’s my only gripe with being back on Android. I like tinkering, but I also like the idea for a phone to function like “one unit” out of the box, before tinkering.
