Android Gesture Navigation: A Backstory (googleblog.com)

It's quite amazing that a company this large with so much money can't figure this stuff out. Hilarious. Like every thing Android has done in the past 5 years they are simply doing what Apple does, but in a worse fashion. It's sort of pathetic, really.

And they need a blog post to explain it. If you need a blog post to explain how your basic back navigation works, you are already in the dumpster.

Another consequence of an OS that could have never survived if not for the billions of Google ad dollars subsidizing it.


not one mention or shout out to Apple who has been doing the left/right gesture for quite some time in iOS and the bottom navigation gesture since the iPhone X
