- Live Photos. I love having a little video attached to every photo. I wish high end mirrorless cameras would do this.
- I can use my phone without and Google products. Apple Maps is especially useful. YouTube and Google Voice are my last two I haven’t ditched. yt-dlp and PeerTube with help, and I’m looking into VOIP providers.

Live Photos! They’re like the portraits in Harry Potter

- Android has motion photos, which i think is on by default and is more or less the same as live photos.
- This is just a coincidence, I know Apple maps is good these days, but just the other day my friend was using Apple maps to guide us and it hallucinated a restaurant wholesale. Like, this location for this restaurant has never existed as far as we can tell.

Apple Maps and Google maps seem about the same to me. But I can use Apple Maps without Google. I installed but haven’t given Organic Maps a fair shot yet.

I did recently discover you can turn off "Web and App Activity" for your Google account, which seems to disable Google saving most of your data (searches, viewed places, etc), for what that's worth. It definitely cripples Google maps even more than I think it should, since now I can't even search for labels I've added to Google maps myself.
I've been meaning to try Organic Maps as well, but haven't even gotten around to installing it yet.
