lxmcf199506yTry installing custom navigation bar, not sure how it will work with the swipe though.
I just went back to the buttons because of the back button -
@lxmcf for the default navigation bar, we still have the back button on right .
Which custom navigation bar do you prefer? I tried xda Developer nav bar. It seems to not have a back button at all. That's more like copying the complete iphone's bar i guess.. but i don't want that. -
@asgs yeah, one click to toggle keyboard off, another to go back . It also changes its pointing direction.
I guess you are an iPhone user -
lxmcf199506y@TitanLannister https://play.google.com/store/apps/... that one.
Not sure how it will work with android P but was pretty useful back in android N days -
asgs112786y@TitanLannister No, I'm on Android 7 (if that makes any diff). My phone doesn't have hardware buttons, so I used the on-screen nav bar which has the back button at the right.
But I didn't like the nav bar occupying bottom 5% of my screen, so I disabled it and am currently using swipe-up gestures on all three buttons. It was hard in the beginning since I had no clue where exactly the buttons used to be. Now it became natural. -
@asgs which beautiful phn are you using that gives the feature of swipe-able navigation? seriously that's one good thing that i want, but this shitty stock rom won't have that. we are on android 9, got ai and bullshit on almost every system app , yet we can't have a customizable navigation bar

asgs112786y@TitanLannister it is Infinix Zero 5. A nice phone for the price tag, but their customized OS (XOS Hummingbird) sucks donkey's balls as the system UI keeps crashing every day or so and there are a few annoying things it keeps popping up with (like freeze these, these and these apps since it's been a while they were opened, etc.,)
Looks like there is no perfectly working all-customizable Android yet.
Totally agree on your concern that whatever AI they come up with can't be used to solve basic annoyances
Is there any way to change the location of this back button to right side? I am tired of this button. I have got Android pie now but still this shit shows up at far left of the screen.
Ps : am on stock android
