I rarely go backwards and am happy to do that with swipes. I've been through this on other threads, and the option for tapping anywhere on the bottom third of the screen is too small/low (it should be at least the bottom 2/3rds of the screen) and the options for tapping on either the left or right side is too wide to reach across easily with your thumb. And, before someone jumps in with why not just slide the page, the answer is I like to tap!

It takes 5 taps to start, as it is now. I’d prefer a direct button on the home screen.


I would like it if the last battery percentage would be shown on the screen when the device turns off. Optionally to show the battery % on screen while the device is sleeping.

I’d also like a clock on the center top menu of the home screen.
Yes please to all of that!

There is also a variation of that patch that does not increase the cover size if you prefer (I don't like the way the increase makes the margins smaller). The variation patch still vertically re-aligns the first two rows after removing the third . They can both be found here:
