I manually switch things. Occasionally if I'm running late or something I'll carry both, but usually it's just one or the other.

Actually my main reason for wanting a full wallet is for receipts. If I'm running a bunch of errands, going to multiple places, I'm likely to carry my regular wallet just for storing the receipts.

I use the MagSafe wallet when I know I only need a card and my license, and will occasionally stick a $20 bill in (such as when I am going out for a run and will stop at the corner store for coffee when I get back.) Otherwise I just carry my regular wallet.

The number of times that I've had to pay cash for anything since the lockdown in 2020 has been very low, though. I hardly ever need cash; I can often get by with Apple Pay, actually, and don't often need cards, either.

iPhone started the back gesture swipe from the left side of the screen, but in MY opinion Android did it better by letting you swipe from either side AND making it much easier to trigger. I find it finicky on the iPhone sometimes. If you’re scrolling even a LITTLE BIT forget about it. It also takes such a precise and defined swipe to get it to trigger sometimes. I like the iPhone UI overall, but this is one area where I see room for improvement.

So I made the switch from a galaxy note 10+ to a iPhone 12 Pro Max. Both huge phones. I found that having most of my in app back buttons on the iPhone in the top left corner very inconvenient and hard to reach one handed. When I switched to a 13 mini it stopped being an issue. That being said, I do miss having a dedicated back swipe as that greatly increased the one handed experience, but I understand why apple doesn’t have it. Apps that need a back button have one, so why have a dedicated button for it? It’s a complicated issue.

It is very app dependent. The Music app was doing it for me earlier, must have been a fluke. The Reddit app does a good job though, I can flick anywhere. Imgur is the same. Some apps don’t even support it, like Disney+. After looking at things further, I’m surprised things are so inconsistent.

I did like the back button on my Galaxy phones. But I don’t think it’s necessary. Im also not a fan of Android’s swiping. It needs more deliberate swipes from me.

I don’t know, it still doesn’t bother me. I’ve used my iPhone 14 Pro Max (and previous Max and Plus iPhones) one handed plenty of times. Reaching over to go back hasn’t been an issue for me. My hands are really big. My iPhone 14 Pro Max’s height goes from the base of my palm to about 1/3rd of an inch away from my middle tip.
