  • Maybe true for just dumping you into it unexpectedly, but once you do know how to use it, it is a much safer interface.

    I much prefer having the podcast or music app integrated into the map interface with big buttons. The alternative is spending a lot more time with eyes off the road to switch apps and hit small buttons.

    If I need to get to the normal interface when stopped, it is just a swipe away.









  • My experience with the 7P is the opposite.

    Also on Fi, but that is just T-Mobile. My connection has been great. Battery life is good. I don’t mind the slow charging and intentionally plug into an even lower power charger to hopefully extend the longevity of the battery.

    My wife’s experience is closer to OP’s though. She’s had problems like that on most phones when I don’t even though we often have the same model. I think it is something to do with the games she installs.

    Before the Android 14 update, we had 5G turned off. It seems the update to the radio firmware has fixed the battery drain problems.






  • Are you managing it for yourself?

    I’ve been using it for a long time and haven’t needed to do anything with family link.

    There is no passcode, but it does support daily timers per app. I haven’t used that in a while, but do use focus mode to disable apps during work hours.

    Maybe these features are still only in the beta version even after years of being in beta.
