Samsung did this after One UI 7 IIRC, and it was enabled as default.

Turned that off when that was introduced, and I have shown few people how to turn it off because they also didn't like it.

    Wasn't something similar already implemented in one of the older releases (and then removed)?

    Dunno why every Android OEM and now Android themselves are interested in replicating this stupid iOS-ism that serves no purpose other than making getting to what you want take more swipes

    Android #17

    Really? I have to be the first to make this joke? I thought somebody else would have done it by now. And in a way more clever than this, I might add.

    on my xiaomi 15T it is already like this, since hyperOS 3. Also that notch Media Player area, like on the iPhones I think, is enabled.

    Unfortunately I am not able to change this in the settings.

    It's literally an option, fucknut. Between iOS and Android style notification/qs pulldown.

    The primary goal here is to convert iOS users and you do that by making familiar experiences available to them.

    Well, only on the right screen sizes it is. Otherwise the 'classic' variant gets disabled.

    They should do something about the "design" they called "material you" before trying to introduce new "features".
