(Android 16) I have auto-rotate disabled manually, my phone should be locked in portrait mode at all times. Yet somehow, whenever the slightest bit of rotation is detected this dumb banner pops up in the top right corner. It’ll cover up a button I’m trying to use, I’ll accidentally hit it and the phone will lock itself into landscape orientation. Then I’ll have to close everything. Grrrrr.
Is there a way to disable this modal? Or is it a built in annoyance?
I switched from samsung to Fairphone, and oh my gods base Android is missing so many nice little features and options I’d been taking for granted on OneUI.
Smart switch: actually copies your data over instead of simply redownloading your apps and letting you figure out if/how to transfer individual backups.
samsung gallery: tags, offline categorization, fantastic photo and video editor. Routines, One Hand Operation+ (though “Quick Cursor” is a decent replacement), quick settings. On samsung there’s a feature which can automatically turn off/on wifi when leaving/returning home. google has basically the same feature… but only turns your WiFi on! They really want their location services to be scanning for networks at all times. And apps, like tasker, can no longer manage WiFi either.
Even so, fuck samsung. I would make the switch all over again.
