I hate gestures - eviltoast

Why on God’s green earth can I not have an #iPhone interface that works?

To say that Apple’s “gestures” suck is entirely too kind. They are a fundamentally broken idea anyway, but that gestures have regions and therefore that a gesture may mean any of three different things, makes my phone desperate–and I do mean desperate–to do anything other than what I’m telling it to do.

      I once helped my niece set up her Android phone. That’s the only time i’ve used an Android phone for over 2 minutes.

      But hey, at least Android is customizable to the point of maybe getting a version with no gestures. I just can’t imagine what that means anyway. Scrolling by tapping arrows…? Zooming in by tapping on a magnifying glass? Gestures are the way we interact with screens.
