Other than having to (probably) re-buy in-app purchases and/or apps and getting used to a different UI/UX not much wrong with using an iPhone :P Maybe go to a local Apple store and try one out for a bit to see how you like it.

 not too long ago i asked if the pixel 4 is worth it here and most of the replies said no, they recommended one plus but i dont neccessarily like what they have been doing when i looked at their product line up and one guy said that the iPhone 11 is a neet choice but im kinda of too deep into Google's own product line up i use their cloud storage and i use google photos and i've spent alot of money on google play and so i was wondering IF i switch to the apple eco system what can i and what can i not move from what i mentioned before to the apple eco system?

Well, your Android apps certainly won't run on iOS, so you'd have to buy the equivalent iOS version of these apps from the Apple Store. Google Photos and other web based services should still work though and/or have apps available for iOS.

 

The Pixel 4 is a bit too expensive for what it offers, but maybe an older Pixel 3(a) could be what you're looking for? An iPhone 11 is certainly a solid choice though and cheaper than a Pixel 4.

thought of going with the pixel 3a but i want every little bit of support i can get out of the phone and it runs a generation old android version so i would like to get the newest i didnt buy apps i bought in app purchases but there were some subscriptions so is the iPhone 11 the best choice you'd say?

Sure, the Pixel 3a probably won't be supported as long as the Pixel 4, but at the same time you can buy two of these for the price of a single 4 :D You can totally update the 3a to Android 10 (did so with mine). Considering the device was only released 6 months earlier, I suspect they'll stop receiving support about as far apart (i.e. not much).

 

I was in the same boat and went with the 3a XL (399€) rather than the 4 XL (899€) after a co-worker pointed out that a base iPhone 11 is 100€ cheaper.

 

Like I said, the iPhone is a solid choice, but I'm pretty sure your in-app purchases won't transfer. I've used iPhone in the past and I come into contact with them all the time at work, but I'm too used to Android (plus I work as an Android-dev) so iOS wasn't really an option for me.

That's the one thing I really love about iOS, they do tend to receive updates for a very long time.

Other than having to (probably) re-buy in-app purchases and/or apps and getting used to a different UI/UX not much wrong with using an iPhone :P Maybe go to a local Apple store and try one out for a bit to see how you like it.
