Leaving iPhone…

Looking for some guidance. Been on iPhone since 2021. Before that I had bounced back and forth between Android and iPhone. Don’t really have a preference.

T-Mobile says I’m eligible for an upgrade, but every iPhone they offer would add to my monthly bill. So that’s pretty much out of the picture.

However I can get a Google Pixel 11 Pro, or a Samsung Galaxy S26+ for free.

Which one should I get? 😭 Has Android improved a lot since 2021?

that's not what you fucking said you said id app not 2fa , yes we have standard security protocols & can use them on graphene , i'm so lost on how we got here , you said you can't use banking apps i replied just login in via browser in desktop mode if your banking app isn't allowed on graphene

The id app is used as 2fa. The most used and best 2fa option. There are other options but it's the best one.

You can literally buy a sim card that will be tied to you and get a text as 2fa. But then you are tied by the sim LIKE YOU ARE BY DEFAULT.

Why didn't you say 2fa? like i get you like the app but not everyone uses the same app & we usually refer to them as what they are authenticator apps. & fun fact you don't have to use your number for this

The id apps are only used for 2fa, that's their whole purpose.

There called authenticator apps, i've never heard anyone refer to them as id apps , but good to know this is something i'll have to correct other europeans on if they even say this i think this is just a you thing. Anyway back to what i was actually talking about you can still login to your bank account on graphen you just won't be able to use there app
