Basically the title. I've been an Android user since 2012, but have have an iPad and a Macbook that I really like, especially how well they work together. My pixel 5 was on its way out, so I finally took the plunge and bought an iPhone 15 Pro earlier this week. I'm still getting everything set up, and I'm particularly excited to play with the different focus modes and shortcuts. I'm curious what apps and features should I be using to make the most of this switch?

Unknown tracker alert on Android

I just received an Unknown Tracker alert on my Pixel 7 running Android 14 beta 5 for an Apple air tag that was on my son in laws key chain as I had borrowed his car.
I heard this was coming but didn't expect it so soon!
Quite impressed with both the information given and the general advice and steps to take offered.
The first notification was "Tracker Travelling With You: Unknown Apple air tag detected. The owner can see your location."
Touching "more info" then shows a map of where the tracker has been with me and the option to make the tracker play a sound to help locate it, with a note that the owner won't know you've done that.
Then more advice and options:
- If you feel unsafe, get help.
- Get and save tracker info
- Disable the tracker (with a how-to guide on battery removal)
And a ”need more help" link.
As I said, I had heard about this coming but was pleasantly surprised at how good it was and the general advice and help offered up.
Nice seeing things like this done right.

Will this turn out any better than the last few times Microsoft tried to break away from Intel? Would you want such a laptop? Will it wake Intel out of its complacency?

I've never owned macs for desktop use because of the expense and my general preference for windows pcs.
I had a first or second gen iPhone and was incredibly frustrated by how limited it was - you couldn't set an alternate default browser, access your own file system, customize you home screen, etc, etc. So I've been an Android user since then.
I'm not really looking to make a switch for either phone or PC, but my brother bought an Apple watch which spurred a conversation that made me realize I don't really know if the issues that bugged me about Apple are still relevant in 2023.
Anyone want to weigh in?
