    Why do the Android P Gestures still retain a navigation bar? It's wasting space and causing ugly design issues on displays with rounded corners.

    Posted: 02 Aug 2019 04:37 PM PDT

    I meant Android Q, sorry

    Is there a reason Google has gone such a seemingly lazy and hacky route to implementing the new gestures?

    If you look at an iPhone, the "Home Bar" floats over everything, so apps scroll behind it. When you swipe up to go home, the bar moves with your finger. On Android P, the home bar is simply a static icon on the same old navigation bar we've always had. Yes, the bar is shorter, but it's still there. It is wasting space because apps have to be that much shorter to accommodate the space for the nav bar, but most of all, it leads to this on Google's own flagships, as well as any other devices with rounded display corners. At the very least, if the nav bar changed colors to match the app it is a part of (like white, in this case), the corner problem would be solved, however Google hasn't even bothered to make it operate in that manner. And it isn't like this is a beta problem, because full release is a few weeks away, it's not going to change at this point.

    IDEAS NEEDED: Android Smart Watches

    Posted: 02 Aug 2019 06:59 PM PDT

    A while back, perhaps 4-5 years or so ago I had an Android smart watch. I think it was a Motorola one. I re-gifted it to someone after just a few weeks, as it wasn't much more than an extra screen for my phone. It basically could not do much without me carrying my phone with me, paired with it and doing most of the heavy lifting.

    I wonder - has the landscape changed? I would love a new smart watch, especially one where I could design my own faces - but it would have to be a device that works as a standalone piece of hardware, and not a Bluetooth attachment to a phone.

    Is that even possible? Or is it a standard and I am just so out of date with my information?

    Ideally, I'd like the phone to be able to store some music on it and play it to my wireless headphones. GPS and/or heartrate tracking would be pretty cool, and so would be an actual ability to make and receive calls, or messages.

    Of course, I also want to be able to build my own face designs, so that's pretty important.

    Any suggestions?

    I use OnePlus 6 as my daily driver, and don't plan to switch to a Samsung phone anytime soon - so of any of the Gears rely heavily on pairing with a Galaxy, that's a no-no. I just want to jog and listen to music without carrying my phone around :)

    Oh, and I would much prefer something round than rectangular!

    Thanks in advance, I believe in you /r/Android!

    Curved screens vs flat screens - what do you prefer?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2019 12:34 PM PDT

    After using a LG G6 ThinQ for the past year and doing some field research for a new phone over the past few weeks , I really dislike that many of the flagship phones all have adopted the curved screens. It not only doesn't add any thing to the experience ( in my opinion), it makes the phone irritating to hold with the chance for accidental touches, also when watching full screen video, it can be quite annoying.

    I was basically toggling between getting a Samsung S10 plus, a P30 pro or One Plus 7 Pro, when I got to hold the Oppo Reno 10x zoom in real life and I was in love. A flagship phone without a notch, without a curved screen and a 4000+ mAh, color me impressed.

    Do you guys like flat screens on your phone or the newer curved screens and why?
