Got an S8+. First android. No longer an applefag.

What are some things to know and apps to get?

Also I lost all my photos so some reaction images would be nice as well

Apex launcher

If you go outside at night Sky Map from google is a cool one. Satellite AR too. Soundcloud.

RSOE EDIS.
It notifies you about major events around the world like hurricanes, flood, biological hazard, terrorism and such.
>>
>>731034284
Congratulations. First order of business is to uninstall itunes. Then probably reinstall your OS to get rid of it properly.

Welcome to the rest of your life.

Nova launcher
>>
>>731034284
Best app for your s8 is a fire extinguisher. Maybe a flak jacket, too.

On the bright side, after it explodes in your pocket, maybe Apple will give you a handicap discount when you want to switch back to a phone that won't try to kill you.

you´d better recycle your old phone OP, some niggerkids worked hard in deep mines to get the rare minerals that are within your phone

>>731034284
Why, of all Android phone, did you choose the S8? It's the worst phone in the Galaxy line.
>>
>>731038361
Why is it the worst? And what's the best?
>>
>>731034854
This, my man. Also, if you like recording video but not holding the phone sideways, get Horizon. Pretty dope, video is always horizontal orientation.

Could've got a Oneplus

Shit's dope
>>
>>731034284
Im considering making the same leap OP

Any advice?
>>
>>731039002
They got rid of the physical buttons for a bigger screen with a stupid screen ratio that no one benefits from, especially when viewing video, they moved the fingerprint sensor to the most stupidest place on earth, near the camera, so that is completely unnatural to reach for the scanner and you will always hit the lens with you finger, the CPU isn't much faster than the S7 and the camera didn't have any substantial improvement from the one on the S7, both in hardware and in software department.
I would have chosen the S7, in the galaxy line, a much better price to performance ratio phone.
In general I would consider a Pixel (if i wouldn't care about memory expansion), a Oneplus 3T also would be a great choice.

>>
>>731040106
I personally have the s7 edge. Best damn phone ever made. S8 is just too tall.
>>
>>731040282
Personally i don't like the "edge" display, I just don't find any real benefit from having that bit of display on the sides. Maybe you or the other "edge" users find actually useful,but for me it's just a "I've got more money than you" thing.
>>
>>731040188
i second this, nova launcher with a live amoled wallpaper is sexy
>>
>>731040611
It's pretty much just an aesthetic thing, it looks decent but had 0 functionality
>>
>>731036528
I've been an Android user for almost as long as they've been on the market but I've had an iPhone provided by my work for the past two years and I fucking hate it. I've literally been using both of them side by side and the Apple shit hasn't grown on me at all.
>>
>>731039002
I've had the S4 for 4 years now and it's pretty solid in my book
>>
>>731040611
Lol I actually got to pick whether I wanted the edge or not. For me they were the same price. I thought the edge was dumb af when I first got it but then I started using it. I use my calculator a lot and the timer. Instead of having to search throughout my phone for those two apps, I just have them on the edge. It's really useful but I couldn't see myself paying like $200 extra for it but since there was no price difference, its amazing. But I just don't use it for those two things, I use it a lot more for other shit.
>>
>>731034510
>>731040188
What even is this shit?
>>
>>731040776
Not entirely correct. I use my edge all the time.

You mean the S8? I've tried it, it's a great phone with some minor issues if you take as it is, but when you start to compare it to some other phones and their prices, then it becomes a not so good phone. I didn't mean that the S8 it a bad phone itself, but that for 700 € it's not worth it.

Work tried to give me an Android phone. I just have them my personal iPhone number instead and told them I have an unlimited data and minutes plan so I don't mind using it for work.

At least I know my iPhone screen won't turn pink; the phone isn't likely to explode; doesn't have easily bypassed 'security' features; won't keep randomly shutting down; has a great camera; won't get a virus; doesn't come loaded with stupid fucking bloatware; and I don't have to spend ages fucking around with it and installing third party software to actually do what it's supposed to do quickly and smoothly out of the box.

>>731041503
Yeah, it's pretty expensive I guess but most people will take it out on a 24 month contract so it's really not all that bad. I have the plus version and that shit is great.
>>
>>731040882
The S4 is a milestone in smartphones, I love that phone.. For me it drove the line between adding actual functionality that we needed on our phones to "Look at what my phone can do" just because you can. Like smart gestures to control your phone without touching it and IR emitters to control TV and stuff.

Just about anything that Samsung add to the OS is bloatware.

An iPhone comes with a few apps that you can delete if you want, and don't have any adverse effect on the OS.

Its a different home screen software, basically. There's a ton of them on the Play store. Most are free, so pick the one that feels the best to you. Stuff like Nova is very customizable.

Bitchin. I've been using Android for years but have just stuck with defaults. I'm about to get a new phone so I'll check it out. Should I get a Galaxy S8 or something else?
>>
You can't uninstall a lot of the crap shipped with your new phone, you could install a version of Android without all that shit, but I wouldn't recommend it for a Android newbie.

Best option is to disable the apps you dont want to use, so they don't run and use battery, space and your data.

Get a OnePlus 3T. shit is dope
>>
>>731041997
A children's toy that just about every other phone manufacturer has attempted to copy the design of since the first iPhone. Except Samsung, who 'innovated' by adding a curved bit to the screen that does fuck all; or stretching the screen to an aspect ratio which is useful for fuck all really.
>>
Root the phone, then get Termux.

Can confirm, upgraded from OnePlus One.

There's about 7 Apps on an iPhone you CAN'T delete, which includes the actual phone app; the settings app; camera; and App Store. If you're telling me you don't use them, then you really shouldn't be using a smartphone unsupervised anyway...

>>
>>731042633
Fuck off. That's nothing to do with the iPhone - that's your autism. You can delete just about every single iPhone App, apart from the ones actually baked in to the OS.
>>
>>731041681
>my iPhone screen won't turn pink
It will break so easily, with a drop or a sneeze that it won't have the time to turn pink
>the phone isn't likely to explode
Yeah, because there aren't iPhone 7 that explode
>doesn't have easily bypassed security features
Right. In fact there are no videos that show how to bypass iPhone lock screens
>won't keep randomly shutting down
But will lock permanently if you set the date and ime wrong
>has a great camera
Like the Pixel, who has the best phone camera (i'm not saying it, every reviewer says it) and it's Android?
>won't get a virus
It will get a virus, if you are stupid enough. Like with Android phones.
>doesn't come with stupid fucking bloatware
Try fooling someone else.
> I don't have to spend ages fucking around with it and installing third party software to actually do what it's supposed to do quickly and smoothly out of the box
I suppose you don't install any third part application on your phone, like Whatsapp, Facebook, Messenger or games, you just use the stock apps that come with it, like the very useful "stock" or "Find my friends". You can pick an android phone out of the box and start using it without any third party application.
>>
>>731042899
"apart from the ones actually baked in to the OS"
yeah, that sounds like all of them
>>
>>731042899
Voice memo, stocks, Safari, Game Center, wallet, iTunes Store, FaceTime, weather, music new, podcast, health, iBooks, tips, find friends

All app that are in my junk folder and can't be deleted
>>
>>731042964
Learn to greentext faggot.
>>
'Package disabler pro' you can turn off the bloatware that comes with the phone. It extended my battery life about 4x.
'NetGuard' is a firewall. You can deny internet access from apps. Saving mobile data & you can get rid of ads in apps that don't need internet connection to work.

Perhaps you didn't notice that the OP was about the S8? Not unreasonable to think you were making a comparison, was it?

But if you want to keep listing phone that have been specially designed to be rugged, then by all means - knock yourself out.

However, I could buy an iPhone and an outdoor case for less than the price of an S8, which will still outperform the phones you listed, so what was your point?

Congrats on switching to Android. I can't speak to the S8, but I have the S7 Edge and it's really great.

To all the iOS faggots: I can't stand the iOS user interface because it feels like it's made for people with IQs < 60.

Well, in case you didn't notice YOU talked about Android phones in general and not the S8. I simply replied to your statement about all the flaws that Android would have. And yes, you could buy an outdoor case and put your iPhone in it, but i don't see the point. Most of the people that own iPhones say that the styling is one of the major factors of their purchase. Now, if they put their beloved piece of jewelry in a rugged case that, let's be honest, looks like shit, the entire phone will look like shit. And, the Cat S60 is a pretty capable phone and it costs less than an iPhone, that's my point.

First paragraph I was talking about Android - second paragraph was aimed at the S8. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
