God, the Pixel 6 might be the worst phone I've ever owned (self.googlepixel)

It's me again, hi all.

I received my replacement phone, and it's been nothing but issues since. Android System Intelligence has crashed multiple times, and Bluetooth keeps disabling itself for no discernable reason. I've tried everything short of factory reset (because I'm on a work trip and can't risk losing my MFA apps).

I regret ever purchasing a Google product at this point. Buyer beware.

Also: Google, if you're reading this, do better. I know you won't, though.

Even when the fingerprint reader is working it will ask you for the pin "for additional security" grrr. I think I used to get a 50% success rate with the fingerprint reader, though it does seem a lot better recently for some reason. I didn't change anything, so maybe a software update unfucked it.

Did your save you primary scanning finger a couple of times? Mine almost always works.

I had some luck redoing my fingerprint scans in a dark closet. Under display fingerprint readers suck in general.

I miss my pixel 4 with the scanner on the back. Instant unlock 100% of the time.
