I upgraded to 14 on my Pixel 7 Pro a few days ago and didn't notice any problem so far. What are the worst issues I am likely to encounter?

    Oh fuck me. Given that I'm on automatic updates and the update has already been downloaded, next time I reboot my phone it will switch to Android 14 automatically. :( (And yup, I'm using work profiles and all that.)

      Good thing you can still back up your data. It's possible it doesn't affect everyone, I'm not sure. Lemme know how it goes when you reboot? Or avoid rebooting somehow (if it's not automatic) in the hope they somehow fix it...

        So far I've avoided rebooting but it looks like the GrapheneOS devs had already fixed the bug a while ago: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/111309676504712576 https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/111309676504712576

  I've noticed that tapping notifications has a significant delay (350ms or so) before it opens any app since upgrading to 14.

  The lock screen won't show anything sometimes, and you can't unlock it. It's just a wallpaper. I had to enable face unlock and auto unlock in order to use the phone. It start the camera app with the power button, try to access photos frying there, and that gets the fingerprint to work and unlock it.

  If you use multiple profiles, you could potentially end up somewhere between locked out of your main account, to even soft- and hard-bricked. See siblings link from Ars.
