Why Google won't implement the bouncy effect from the app drawer, when you reach the bottom or the top, system-wise? It would be much better than this hitting the wall, harsh stop with this "wave" thing we have now

As Samsung is removing the headphone jack from its devices, on line at the time, it might be time for them to fix a Bluetooth bug that has been plaguing its Galaxy series for years...
