Welcome to Android Central, Davie! We have a plethora of users here who have switched from iPhone to Android; who have switched from Android to iPhone; or who use both simultaneously! All are welcome here! Feel free to ask away and to surf our sub-forums!

What kind of phone are you thinking of getting? Are you looking to stick to the simplicity of iOS? If so, a phone like Google Pixel, OnePlus, or Motorola (Moto) would be great for you!

Keep us posted as to what you are looking for in a smartphone, and we will give you some suggestions!

Welcome to the forums. Hopefully someone with both devices will jump in and help out better. I think what I would suggest is taking a set time, say 3 days and only use that phone.

I agree with @Morty2264 that the most easily compared devices would be the Pixel or Moto.

Welcome.

I use and enjoy both. I have no difficulty in accommodating their various differences.

Have you made any headway on making a phone decision, OP?

Hello and welcome to the forums at Android Central!
Best thing to do is use the phone you are interested in or a similar Android phone, so you can feel first hand what's in store for you.
And yes, a Pixel or Motorola phone will be kind of close to the experience.
I personally use Samsung and like them better, but I also had use iPhone before.
I feel free using Android, and restricted when using iOS, if that helps.

Hello and welcome.
I'm using iPhone and Android phone regularly, so I can share few details:
- What I miss the most in iPhone is the customizability available in Android. moving the icons in desired position, making the middle screen your default home screen - small things that matter.
- the basic functionality is almost the same - making phone calls, notifications/control center so you won't have problems getting used to Android
- the most important thing to check before making a switch is if all important apps that you use daily are available on Android. Few apps that I regularly use on Android were not available on iPhone, as well the quality of some was better on Android.
