Things I'd like to see in future releases of Android!

1. Gestures to work better with third party launchers.
2. I recently came across an app called Bottom Quick Settings and found it extremely useful. The notification shade is at the bottom of the screen which makes for easier one handed use. I'd like Google to implement this in Android and maybe a swipe from the top could be used for something else (I'm thinking cards and passes, smart devices controls and maybe Ne...

PSA: Android 11 now fully supports gesture navigation for Nova launcher (and maybe other third-party launchers?)

A year ago I remember having to choose between Nova launcher and using side swipe for back button. I chose Nova then (mostly because I purchased the premium and some icons), and gave in with a swipe-from-bottom-only navigation.

Last week my Note 10+ finally landed its major update and I'm so happy to find out my favorite swipe gestures are now back, from both bottom AND sides.

Check that out guys....

(OC) Camera Comp - S21 ULTRA vs PIXEL 3a XL - David vs Goliath?

Guys, I'm not an expert on tech. I'm somewhere between average Joe and enthusiast. I take quite a few pictures, mostly of people and my dogs and a few beautiful landscapes here and there. I've never posted something like this but the results were too strange not to share.

I took some average-joe photos, didn't take more than one or two of any shot, and was very surprised. PLEASE REVIEW and give your thoughts below!

Why do you prefer Android over iOS?

Seen a couple of threads about this but they were pretty outdated and both OS's have undergone changes by then. Why you prefer Android over iOS?

Here are mine:

* Customisation: I can set default apps for web browsing, mail, my dialer app and launcher. This means I can choose an app that I like for my phone, unlike iOS where you have to use Apple's apps. I'm not saying these are bad, it's just that there aren't many options. Although you can set you default mail, browsing and music apps, Androi...
