Can we just appreciate Android's gestures and its one hand friendly interface?

iOS may have popularized today's gestures but Android made it so much better with the universal 'Swipe left/right edge of screen to go back'. Such a simple, consistent, and useful feature. Backs on iOS are quite messy and it can get confusing.

Focus Mode is useless if you use a WearOS device

I use Digital Wellbeing's "Focus Mode" to pause apps and mute their notifications during the work day. Something I rarely see mentioned is that WearOS completely ignores Focus Mode, so those notifications end up coming to my watch while I'm working anyway (which is actually the more important place to prevent them, since it's attached to my wrist and highly distracting).

I'm not talking about apps like restaurants and games which send notifications I'd never want on my wrist, those are all ...
