I’ve been a iPhone user for ages and tried lots of different apps to replace the native iOS apps. As a casual user though I keep coming back to the native apps because they just work across all my devices. So I guess I’m curious what everyone uses instead from a casual point of view
google maps, google calendar, whatsapp, onenote, spotify, pocketcasts, sometimes halide.
Any ideas how I can play gba games on my iPhone yet?
I’ve used Fantastical for years. The built in calendar app is fine, but not flexible enough for my needs.
Overcast for podcasts.
Firefox, to sync with my other devices. None of them are Apple, so Safari doesn’t make sense for me.
google mail and google maps, mail mostly because im used to it and maps because they far more better than apple maps in europe, when im travelling i can chrck all the places with opinions and photos from dofferent users straight from the app
WhatsApp, Gmail, Maps and Google Calendar
WhatsApp is used by 100% of my contacts and Apple Maps are totally inaccurate in my area.
I can’t stand native Mail and Calendar apps, I’m sorry
Gmail and calendar for work and personal use. Chrome because i have saved passwords there from my previous android phone. Google Translate, maps, keep because they are better imo. Google Photos because i sync photos through my personal gmail account and have lots of photos in the cloud from the past 5 years or so.
Google Maps, Reeder, Obsidian, Bookshelf, Spark
Google Maps and sometimes YT music and Gmail.
I use very few native apps. Specifically, Mail and Photos and that’s it. I use Chrome, Google Maps, Waze,Google Keep, Google Kalendar, Google Tasks, Google Home,Spotify…I change devices often, I use many different platforms, I can’t imagine being locked in one single ecosystem with all my apps and services.
Google maps and chrome
How do you find chrome on iPhone?
I use chrome because I hate safari. It also then links with chrome on my computer.
I also use gmail, this is because when we switched internet providers they cancelled my email address and I lost everything and gmail was good and I still do like it.
Stocard for my rewards cards instead of wallet.
Waze for GPS but I have been using Apple Maps because I like the “at the next stop light turn right” which is very helpful when I don’t know the area.
Spotify for music.
Libby for books so I can borrow and not buy.
Never heard of TimeTree so might check it out
Google Maps and Gmail frequently.
Accuweather, 2FAS for authentication, I tried switching from Mail, but iCloud has privacy features that far ahead of gmail so I dumped gmail but I have a Google Account. I use Parcel for package tracking and Calzy for calculator which eons ahead of what Apple calls a calculator.
I use gmail, google maps and google chrome. I find them much better than what Apple offers.
I also use whatsapp because people in Europe dont give af about iMessage
Haha that’s true. I mostly use WhatsApp
