Wanted to see how everyone in the community felt about the using the android navigation bar buttons vs using gesture control.
I’ve used the navigation buttons since they released on android and just recently started trying to use the gesture based navigation. It’s been a little difficult for me to adapt to it so far, but curious what others experience has been.
Gestures because on-screen buttons just suck for full screen apps. Buttons only work if they’re always in the same place and always available. Why the hell would I want them to be hidden? Give me my hardware buttons back please.
Gestures are only half-way usable because I patch the android framework to ignore apps’ requests to change orientation (fuck that) and the pill to be much smaller but even then landscape is pretty meh with it taking way too much movement to change apps and the pill requiring quite a lot of vertical space that is already very limited.
