It honestly baffles me how people can say this with a straight face. Iphone’s UX is abysmal.
You open something, and to go back from it you… Look around the screen for clues! Sometimes, you have to swipe down. Sometimes swipe left. Sometimes tap the background. Sometimes tap the top-left corner. Other times, the top-left corner. Unless it’s not just the top-left, it’s the “toppest-leftest”, a small little indicator on the very edge of the screen.
Whereas on Android you go back by tapping the “back” button, or swiping left/right from the edge of the screen (making the gesture ambidextrous). The only exception to this rule is when you’re using an app that was lazily ported from iOS…
