Questions About Google Pixel Accessibility and Switching from iPhone

hi

i can answer a couple of questions, the gemini descriptions are awesome, i love them, i have stopped sharing photos to be my eyes and just use the gesture i set for describe image as talkback calls it, talkback also has reading controls simular to the vo roter, talkback also has acctions like IOS but sadly most apps just don't use them, even most google apps other then gmail don't use them witch really sucks

I'm not going to comment on artificial intelligence etc. by the time you switch the game will have completely changed! What is not likely to change and has not changed since I've stepped in and out of android over the past 15 years is down to one word: Lag!
If you like a laggy, sluggish experience and by all means switched to android! It's just how talkback behaves I'm sure cited people don't get all that latency! For all its faults, iOS, and voiceover is clean and fast!

Aren't they paid on Android? You sure can obtain them illegitimately but I don't mean to encourage that.

To the poster who commented above on lag, I would first ask, what phone you were actually using. If you were using a bottom of the barrel entry level phone, yes, lag is definitely a thing. If you are using higher quality hardware, the experience gets much much better. Also, with the latest version of Talkback, some featureswere introduced that can reduce lag even further. Finally, it also has a lot to do with the text to speech engine you choose to go with.
There are times where Voiceover still does feel a bit more pollished, but the gap is incredibly small. I switched back to Android a few months ago now, and am incredibly happy with the experience, and this is on a Galaxy S22 Ultra, so with more recent hardware, I am sure the experience would be even better.

To the original poster, yes, you can indeed get Vocalizer voices. They don't come out of the box like on iPhone, and yes you will need to pay for them, but yes, you can absolutely get them.
Regarding data transfer, I have never used a Pixel, and of course Samsung has their own data transfer app, which I did find very easy to use, but even with the normal one found on other Androids like the Pixel, it should be pretty straight forward. There may be some apps you have to go in and download as they don't get picked up as part of the transfer, some apps you have to find a good replacement for on Android, but honestly, the process isn't bad at all, especially now with both iPhones and Androids both using usb C. You can also transfer some stuff wirelessly but you'll be able to transfer more and faster with a wired connection.

You do have to pay for them, but you can start by downloading the app from the Google play store.
