The lack of a back button is one of my top frustrations whenever I use an iPhone.
- Razengan 10y agoReally? Not being able to edge-swipe to go back was one of my frustrations the last time I used Chrome (I think) on Android. Taking up permanent space for a button that is not relevant in every app/situation seems like the worse design choice here, and a half-hearted one especially after you've made the decision to eliminate buttons in favor of touchscreens.
- makecheck 10y agoOn iPhones, a link to the last-used app always appears in the top-left corner when you tap on something that switches apps, and I'd say 99% of the time that is all I am looking for. The browser has its own Back button. When I had an Android phone, the inability to predict what the Back button would do was infuriating. Sometimes it did nothing, sometimes it went back one screen, sometimes it went back ALL screens, sometimes it switched apps. An unpredictable button is worse than useless.
