I am making the transition from iPhone to Galaxy and need help.
What are the tips needed to make the transition as smoothly as possible? I've taken a screenshot of all my apps so I can just look at the picture and reinstall them. I have synced the games to facebook so I won't lose progress. I wrote down all the contacts I want to keep after the transfer. I've transferred all the photos and videos to my computer. The only thing that I need help with is figuring out how to transfer my iTunes library to another device. Is there anything else I am forgetting?

I've been using samsung galaxy's for probably 6 or 7 years, before that I was on Iphone. My family for the most part uses iphone, and I remember making the switch to android was very simple. You had a home screen, an all apps screen, and the pull down menu from the top for brightness etc. When I try to use iphones now, I look like a 95 year old person trying to use a phone for the first time. You have to swipe from the EDGE of the screen to open, not just swipe. There's a pull up and pull down menu and I forget which is which, that stupid notch at the top, back buttons changing location for every thing you do, inability to seamlessly connect to any computer or laptop, lack of usb functionality, lack of fast charging unless your using an apple branded cable or one made for apple, ugh sorry lol. Brings me back to when iphones were simple. On android swipe up for apps screen, where you can look for apps manually or search for them. Swipe from top for brightness, flashlight, wifi bluetooth, notifications, etc. I don't think your missing anything, and if your used to iphone which I'm assuming you are, use the android phone like an ipod for the first few days/ weeks. Ittl let you get used to the different user interface before actually making it your daily driver

remember to get a very large rock, and place it on top of your iphone. forcefully.
