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

    Gboard. The haptics are more pronounced than the normal keyboard. Plus when you swipe type for profanities the keyboard doesn’t stop you from doing so lol

    Gmail, Google Maps, Spotify

    TBH I like the Apple Music app better but Spotify works better for me for music discovery, play a track radio etc.

    Google Maps. Maybe ingrained but I have a car with built in Google Maps now and if I search a route on my phone there it is on my car.

      What is it about Apple Maps that you hate so much?

      It’s come a long way since it launched and I’ve found it quite good here in the UK

    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
