I expect it to be a pocket computer able to do lots of stuff, and more and more as time goes on.
What I cannot currently do on SFOS and need Android apps:
- Run a navigator with real-time traffic information.
- Run the latest version of any browser (sorry, but websites often require this).
- Access online banking (web access requires the app for 2-factor authenticati/on).
- Use vending machines on the go.
- Purchase public transportation tickets.
- Use electronic ID apps.
- Use music streaming services or music identification services (ie Shazam).
- Use instant messaging (sorry, everybody uses Whatsapp).
- Use photo backup services.
- Use utilities that are precious for my job (e. g. Smith chart matching or Electrodroid).
- Use public administration utilities.
- Access smart home devices.
- Pay parking online.
What I cannot do at all on SFOS and need an Android phone:
- Use vending machines at work.
- Use car scanner devices.
- Use apps via car built-in services (ie Android Auto).
- Use one of my banks’ apps (because it won’t start if you don’t lock the screen).
- Use the Italian public administration app IO (because it relies on Google’s infrastructure).
- Use the most popular parking app in Italy MooneyGo (because it crashes).
- Use my smartwatch.
