I've avoided this (and I have two email accounts set up at once on my device under Android 14). That said, the entire handling of backing up / migrating all data could be MUCH better: I migrated from Pixel 6 to Pixel 8, photos were fine, but for everything else it was badly designed: it did a partial transfer of a handful of file types, leaving a range of documents/PDFs etc unmigrated (in the region of 2Gb of files). Subsequently I was able to copy content across using the copy to nearby device, but that recopied the already transferred files plus it screwed up the file creation dates. So then I had a long tedious de-dup stage to clear things up but at least I have everything across now.
Not the sort of experience you expect (but maybe I should!)
- nmstoker 3y agoOne more point: I'm sure this was better on previous Pixel to Pixel transfers. I'm definitely noticing a number of regressions across the new OS. Central functions that worked fine getting stuttery,eg showing a PDF, although it has cleared up after a couple of weeks, it was 100% fine for years on the old Pixel 6 under Android 13.
