I guess Settings App -> System -> Feedback. But i think this is an OS feature request (like Jet in the other comment said), which is being handled by the manufacturer of the device you’re using instead of the actual AOSP. I’m not sure where you can leave feedback for AOSP, if that’s possible at all. Hope someone else can add that here.

Go to settings -> apps -> the app you want the restriction gone -> the 3 dots top right

I think you can turn it off there. It is an extra security layer design by Google, because without that restriction and with the access turned on, the app can see pretty much all your touches and swipes, notifications and whatnot throughout the system etc. Edit: spelling

I hope that Google releases more tablets and give landscape orientated designs a little more love, something that is currently falling behind by many many apps (many don’t have that options at all). That could really make a difference once they DO decide to implement desktop mode.

Maybe they could experiment with some forced landscape mode or something? (If that does already exist, let me know because Nothingphone has removed homescreen rotation for no reason).

I would like to see that coming more to smartphones anyway. Phones are so big these days, landscape mode gets really comfortable because of it IMO.

Why is it the best? Why does it stand out? Why do you recommend it? A little more info etc would make this post seem much less like an invasive ad… Edit: this as reply to you comment: why the downvotes

While i agree and support a lot with what you are saying / trying to do, i’m not sure this is the right way to reach people. I’d say keep your blog going, but try find some nicer words and images and such (not the Anonymous kind of stuff…). The content comes off a little… strange (the word ‘cringy’ in the other comment was kinda wellplaced too), i hope you anderstand.

And i’m afraid most people won’t be reached at all unless other ROMs are more (easier) available, like being pre-installed on devices you buy in stores.

Wished i could be of help in any way, i like your intentions and input!

Oh nice, that’s great. Thanks again!

True. Will look into it. Thanks :)

I don’t know. I guess they have some vision about how their products should behave/look, which is a fair thought. It is just not executed very well…

Thanks for the recommendation. I’m not sure if i want to want to continue using Google services at all, since i use my Fairphone as a secondary device. If MicroG is optional, or if i decide i do need some Google services, it might be worth it. First i’ll see how a degoogled Android suits me

I very much agree. Would call that a win-win situation for everybody: we get more privacy and better performance, they have more time and money for innovations and releasing more (different) products globally.

One of the poor UI design “issues” (the top row icons don’t seem to fit the appdrawer, gets either a little better or much worse when changing screen/letter size). I already made sure to let them know.

Yeah i’ve noticed it recently in Lawnchair. But thanks anyway. Terrible design choice from Google if you ask me…

Only on the homescreen

I agree. Sadly the Fairphone 5 is still running Android 13… A14 is “planned” to released this summer

Fairphone is dropping some balls when it comes to software. So much that in its current state, i can’t recommend the Fairphone 5 at all. Plenty of issues. They need to hire better developers/software designers and probably more of them too.

I’ve had contact since november, and only a few weeks ago (after i had to sent it to the repaircenter in France, i live in the Netherlands) they could tell me it was “an intentional design choice”; so the notificationbar would be more visible. I sent it to them because of the hue, because they first said; “it looks indeed suspicious”. So… Yeah…

Different launcher does indeed fix the issue, but that’s such a shame because i really like the stock ones already.

That was actually one thing i also thought! But then i thought, why only do that on the homescreen? Because even the lockscreen misses that “feature”.

Well, that’s nevertheless somewhat odd. Fairphone and Nothing have different stock launchers. I think they just modified the standard launcher and thus used a “feature” that was included in the first place? All things point to an actual intended design choice which can’t be changed.

No, i used them as backgrounds on my homescreen. In gallery the fade is not present on your images.
