I wish Apple would reinstate something similar. ![]() At least Android has a software home button that floats at the bottom of the screen and stays there when you are in different apps, along with an easy to understand back button. Or should I say, they are both equally frustrating?

Like a lot of people, I get used by my parents as free technical support all the time, and being an iPhone owner I used to hate having to try and navigate their Android phones to find that one elusive setting for that annoying thing they wanted to change. I could even install Apple Music and keep my subscription going. But the upside here is that I still haven’t really found a crucial app that I had on my iPhone that I couldn’t get on the new Samsung.
