Samsung → iPhone: Need Your De-Google Tips (sopuli.xyz)

Making the jump from Samsung to iPhone soon, mainly for privacy reasons. Want to cut Google out as much as possible while I'm at it.

What I'm planning so far:

Mailbox.org instead of Gmail

DuckDuckGo for search, would prefer something even better

Safari with all the privacy stuff turned on

Where I'm stuck:

What about YouTube? Just use the web version?

Google Drive alternatives that actually work well?

Best way to store photos that aren't big greedy corps?

Questions:

Any must-have privacy apps once I get the iPhone?

Settings I should change immediately out of the box?

Services I'm forgetting that are probably feeding Google my data?
