Another thing that annoys me on Android is the setup experience itself. All my recent device presentcthe same behaviour: login with a Google account, transfer data, setup voice assistant and some other defaults,done.

Then after the first app updates is done, a notification comes with "let's finish setting up your phone" and again asks to setup voice assistant, check defaults and whatever else is in the flow.

Has no one noticed that the setup flow seems to run twice?

And it's not one specific device. I do it with eight to ten devices a year, from different OEM, writing reviews and testing. They all have the same behaviour.

Isn't that just Google trying to dark-pattern you into finally clicking that checkboxes you unchecked during setup?

I noticed that as well, I thought it was just a bug or a conflict because I used Smart Switch instead of a "built-in" Android tool.

Another annoying thing: very few apps are copied from old device to new devices and bring their settings and most importantly login. Of about 80 apps on my device, only five or so are ready to use after a migration.

Going through dozens of apps, doing logins, 2FAcand changing settings is a PITA.

Devs do a poor job on that front.

Developers basically need to opt out not to use that feature. 2FA apps do that for understandable reasons (including on iOS).

In my experience just about everything but WhatsApp and maybe Signal work out of the box for apps downloaded through GPlay.
