Upstate1618 Or simply use GrapheneOS. Wrong forum maybe...
configure your iPhone to be secure and private
BaronAfanas I use iPhone as a secondary phone along with my GrapheneOS
Upstate1618 Aah, I see. That makes the difference. Which do you like better? Graphene or iOS? Which iPhone do you use?
Sounds bad

I just received my iPhone 13 last week. Which I like better doesn't matter cause you should configure every of your devices to be secure as much as possible whether or not it's GrapheneOS. I do like gos more because Apple is privileged on iOS while no third party personal data collector has privilege on gos. Apple makes many useful config only applicable to supervised iPhone because Apple doesn't want to give normal consumers more control on their own phone. Apple makes quitting Siri and iCloud very difficult and gives first party apps and system privileged access to diagnostic data and personalized ads. iPhone is not more private than stock Pixel. Apple is not inherently more private than Google. iPhone is more secure than other Android phones for sure because of complete monthly patches, secure element, verified boot and a few other things.
Upstate1618 Hello, advertising is only present in the appstore application, so I assume you've looked into it?
leave it in its box in the Apple store, I know not very constructive, but damn effective...
Locart Personalised ads may also appear in Apple News and Stock.
That seems like a very complicated process, and it is not in any way clear what, if anything, is accomplished by it.
What does this do?
I'm searching for a comparison thread between Graphene security vs apple security...what are some things that make one more secure than the other?
K8y they are likely similar in terms of security
Not at all, Apple devices are far behind Pixels running GrapheneOS

Not according to the GOS development team.
AlanZ yes and they also say that it is second solid choice after GrapheneOS which also means they are not equal. Also iOS consistenly exhibits more critical vulnerabilities compared to recommended Pixels (especially when they run GrapheneOS). Having such development team on your side, with their unprecedently swift actions to mitigating vulnerabilities is an advantage.

The point of supervision is to apply your config profile in step 6. Many options are only applicapble to supervised iPhone.

No, GrapheneOS is superior to iPhone. For example, there're MTE, Sensors permission and 2FA unlock that iPhone does not have.
If you wish privacy, ditch the iPhone, it is the best tracker phone on the market, even when it is power down, it still broadcast to the nearest iPhone with details, location etc back to Apple.
iOS and GrapheneOS are more or less equivalent, both are very good in terms of security and privacy, grapheneos is highly recommended for high threat models, iOS is highly recommended for the Apple ecosystem... I would like to add that no evidence shows that open source is more secure. It's up to everyone to make their choice according to their threat model.
Locart No, iOS is not privacy. Apple apps and iOS gather your data for advertising and diagnostics purposes etc while GOS never do that. GOS is also more secure than iOS because of features like MTE, 2FA unlock etc. iPhone are vulnerable to AFU forensic extraction while GOS are not.
