I feel like I'm the only one who still reverts navigation to the 3 dots and doesn't use any of the new stuff they're releasing.
This taskbar looks like it's going to make things happen without me wanting them to, I hope we can turn it off.
I hate, hate, hate, that I can't turn off the "At a glance" top section as well as the "Google search" bottom section in my Pixel home screen.
They got rid of the Google Assistant microphone icon that I could tap and say stuff like "remind me to buy milk in 2 hours," and replaced it with a similar icon that does voice search. Yuk (and no, shaking, squeezing, gestures or activating the always on 'hey google' prompt are not worthy replacements.)
The non removable Google search bar was one of the reasons I put Graphene on my pixel.
How do you like Graphene? Any specific issues you haven't resolved yet? Can you access your bank apps and everything from it?
Here is a list of most banking apps and whether they work or not. I've been using GrapheneOS for a while and haven't encountered major problems. Only thing I wish I knew beforehand is that multi-user profiles are more cumbersome than what most people say.
Thank you!
Huh, I actually had to look at the At a Glance but to see what you were talking about. I've just taken it as a given that I can't use the top 1/3 of the screen or the bottom strip.
I'm not a gestures guy at all, I like buttons!
