(Equally, my biggest annoyance on Android is often the lack of an on-screen back button, and the small but annoying proportion of times when the hardware back button takes me somewhere other than I expected.)
- sizzle 13y agoYou can get around the back button part by rooting and allowing double tap of back arrow to jump between last open application. This solved that pain point for me
- coin 13y agoPeople don't want to have to root a device to work around usability issues. That's why iOS devices are so popular, out of the box they just work (for the most part).
- mikeash 13y agoOn the other hand, when you do bump into a problem, you generally can root Android devices, while iOS is getting to be pretty rough there.

- sizzle 13y agoI was just suggesting this workaround personally after having been frustrated by the back button myself
- StavrosK 13y agoWhich app does that?
- sizzle 13y agoafter you root, install Xposed framework and you can get the GravityBox module which will enable a ton of customization. Read the tutorials on XDA forums if you need help, enjoy!
