I know this topic has been discussed many times in the past. I really wanted to give an iPhone a try coming from an Android, but the navigation on the phone seems to be a huge downgrade.

The back button is in most applications out of reach with one hand. And swiping on the right edge is not user friendly for a right hander.

On android you can do that from both sides and it makes the overall experience much smoother!

Will apple ever catch up with android?

Honestly hard disagree

One of the things I liked the most switching from Android a few years ago was the swipe gestures. They feel so much smoother and more natural on iOS

Guess I’ll see soon, in a few days I’ll be one of those dumbasses with two phones and two phone plans 🙃 (getting a Pixel 8)

How is it more natural on iOS when you've to stretch your thumb to the left edge to make a return swipe?

How small are your hands, this honestly just seems like moaning for moaning's sake
