There's a heck of a lot of potential retina pixels around that home button down there.
- artmageddon 15y agoA gesture can probably be used to replace the functionality of quickly snapping back to the home screen, taking a screen shot of resetting the phone, but I still kind of like the idea that it's an explicit operation, rather than hoping the phone interprets my gestures correctly(especially when it might be experiencing a problem.) That said, I'm not opposed to the idea, extra screen real estate wouldn't be a bad thing. The author correctly brings up phone orientation when removing from your pocket/holder. Will I have to look for the ear speaker now?
