Not surprised Apple's market share is improving.
I bought a Pixel 10 and Google's software quality control is laughable. Ridiculously simple things just don't work properly. For instance Google has broken Bluetooth for some common devices, USB won't connect at all to some computers, and audio players are killed to save battery even when the phone is plugged in.
Never thought I'd consider an Apple but an Iphone my will be my next purchase.
when you bundle Apple's reasonably good privacy protections (reasonably) they do have a compelling case for switching, although if you have a pixel and care about privacy I believe you should be putting Graphene on it.
Might I suggest trying GrapheneOS for your Pixel before switching to an iPhone?
That was my plan, but since GrapheneOS is based on Google's Android 16 code I'd expect it to have the same bugs.
