I’m an iOS user but stock android is the only one that’s any good in my view. There’s no reason that notifications should pull down over the current view but control center should float on top of it. It’s weirdly inconsistent. Also pretty much everything about notifications on Android is better, which is a shame since it’s pretty core to the user experience.
Man I think Android is the worst of these!
You have to pull that shitty drawer down twice, then swipe through pages. I hate it.
There’s no reason changing your brightness needs to be that terrible.
Android got rid of the wifi toggle. Now its a submenu of the internet tab, which is a toggle for the internet. Google's developers don't understand phones because they think disabling internet access is more important than disabling wifi.
unless youre on lineageos or fork, then you still have the WiFi / data buttons 😋
Not bluetooth though. That's now a menu of your recently paired and currently connected devices.
Not to mention the A12+ increase in spacing and button size. Removing that, you could easily fit 2x the buttons in the same area.
Google has been adding clicks to accomplish any basic task. They're like the anti-UX.
They also renamed "do not disturb" to "modes".
The fuck is that supposed to be?! I was panicking the first time I tried to DND my phone after that, hunting for something while needing to not have my phone interrupt... Whatever I was doing, movie or concert starting, doesn't matter. I hate the new name and still haven't gotten used to it.
At least in LineageOS you can still replace the Internet button with a dedicated wifi or 5g one.
Back when I was using android, you could swipe down with two fingers to get right to the settings
That works and I would have never in a million years tried it
You still can. At least, on my device running Android 16 I can
Oh my god you can do that???
TIL. Thanks
It was even better when you could differentiate between swiping the left or right half of the status bar down to go to settings or notifications. That might have been a cyanogenmod thing though.
