Jumped from iOS after having all iPhones since 2011. I'm having a lot of fun again.

I've been contemplating an Android switch for a few years now and finally decided to do it yesterday with a Note 10+. I left behind a 7+.

It's definitely a learning curve, but nothing seems too complicated. Notifications are way better. I've seen this said many times and I didn't think it mattered that much. I LOVE how I can switch apps and keep a YouTube video playing. The phone itself is incredible. Charging speed, screen size, etc. So far I have no regrets with this change.

I'm sure these...

Tutorial: How to display and control your Android devices on Linux?

In the last 3 years I was searching for an easy to use app or a useful tool to display and control my Android smartphone. Unfortunately, I spent a lot of time searching unsuccessfully - I think the problem was with my research method - until I found last week what I was looking for that made me forget my past suffering.

This is my first post on Android subreddit, So i read the rules carefully and i hope i don't violate it. If i do please let me know with an explanation.

Do you think one day widgets and apps will look as seamless and as integrated as wallpaper?

As of now, both apps and widgets--even text-- are visually expressed as overlays, but I wonder if, one day, they can be indistinguishable from the integrated look of wallpapers and the very colors on a screen. This may be the next big push. What do you guys think?...

Google shouldn't approve auto renewal of subnoscriptions without biometric authentication / password lock

Today at 9:28 PM i got a SMS from my bank stating my a/c was debited 1699 rs ( $24 ). I checked my bank website to check where was it credited to. It said bumble.

I quickly went to check my email. There was nothing. No notification about auto renewal. I got bumble free trail ( 14 days ) and it said it will renew subnoscription after 14 days. But there was no confirmation to reauthorize the payment.

Google always asks for my fingerprint before i purchase any app / book. But neither Google nor b...

What I think Smart Lock should do

Biometric authentication like fingerprint readers make unlocking your phone so fast and convenient that it never makes sense to leave your phone unlocked. For this reason, Smart Lock is useless in its current state on many Android phones.

However, the problem with biometric unlock is that it's not as secure as a PIN or passphrase.

​

The solution to both problems: instead of Smart Lock keeping your phone unlocked, it should allow less secure methods of unlock when certain conditions are...

What reviews almost never tell us - some personal experiences with Android phones in the last few months

About 7 months ago I posted this story about how [not all BLE5 phones are equal](https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/ak2tqq/what_is_really_wrong_with_bluetooth_5_how_the/) and from the feedback I found that a very inexpensive phone did have the BLE5 long-range feature that I was interested in testing (for work) - so I got one. Later we needed to also test on a different BLE stack so I also got one S10e but in the end while I loved the small size of the S10e I could not stand the lack of no...

How good are budget smartphones compared to top tier phones like iPhone and Galaxy series phones?

I've been considering purchasing a budget smartphone like the G7 to replace my worn out S6. Is there anything I should be prepared for switching from a Galaxy to something like the Moto G7 or am I just way to confident that all that extra money I paid before wasnt a waste?...
