Later this year, Google is introducing new developer verification. For power users, Android will offer an option to disable verification...

    Cool, going to iPhone out of spite.

    Black rectangle or white rectangle. What’s the big difference now?

      I think the correct answer is to go Motorola+GrapheneOS

          No. It hasn’t even been announced. There has just been mass speculation stemming from some AI-generated blog post.

          Na, it’s a no-go if you need a phone right now. We’re a few years out.

          But, Motorola did announce their partnership with GrapheneOS on the official Motorola blog: https://motorolanews.com/motorola-three-new-b2b-solutions-at-mwc-2026/

          Together, Motorola and the GrapheneOS Foundation will work to strengthen smartphone security and collaborate on future devices engineered with GrapheneOS compatibility. … In the coming months, Motorola and the GrapheneOS Foundation will continue to collaborate on joint research, software enhancements, and new security capabilities, with more details and solutions to roll out as the partnership evolves.

          I actually did need a phone replacement a month ago and I went with Fairphone for now. Trying to spread out the power, instead of concentrating it.

      Idiotic. On iPhone you can’t install apps from files at all.

          I thought it’s only possible through “alternative app marketplaces” on top of all that?

              Sure. Point is: you can’t just install stuff onto the device you own without someone paying apple for the “privilege”

        Were Apple not forced to permit installs from files recently? Or is that still in the process of being appealed?

          Alternative app marketplaces exist, but they still have to pay apple per install, every dev needs to be registered with apple, and so on.
