As someone who haven't really used a Samsung phone, can I ask which one of these changes do you think are significant improvements?
Pulling down from top right corner to show the full quick actions menu. Now I need to swipe down twice to see all options, with this update only once. I will actually install the beta solely for this feature.
There is 2 finger pull down option available right now with v13. No idea if it is default behavior or a setting since cannot find one.
So dumb though, who actually uses that? And I'll ask again until eternity:
why do these tiles need to be so large?
To take real estate from notifications (is it somehow a benefit to Google to add scroll interactions?). I'm not sure what the endgame is but the only other thing it achieves is making them always trigger when you're holding the phone to your ear, which no matter how tinfoil I get I can't see any potential motivator for that. It's pure bad design, for the life of me I can't work it out.
Quick tiles is one of the many reasons why I prefer Samsung One UI over stock/Pixel. One UI still uses the old style.
