Why Android sucs Part 2 (OS behavoir)

• I Never Have Any Idea What The Back Button Will Do
• Navigation Is Still Gingerbread-Themed
• The Recent Apps List Gets Confused
• Icons Will Open The Wrong App
• No Two Icons Are The Same Size
• The Google Voice Icon Makes No Sense
• The Play Store Doesn't Remember Your Scroll Location
• Google Music Has No Status Bar... In Landscape
• Horizontal Support Sucks
• Unmanageable Cloud Storage Pictures In The Gallery

And other small things.

Before I get flamed, its an interesting read (Even if you are a fandroid)

Oh I can add another one the Author did not, that ticks me off big time.
Not being able to see only your purchased & not installed apps on Google Play (Unless you use a 3rd party app)

Sucks.
Behaviour (UK) (or behavior for US).

While all Android users have things they hate about Android, it does not suck

If you compare it to the other 2 OS's in Look and feel, then yes it does suck

As a new user people notice it, as someone that used Android since 2.x you learned to live with it.

LMAO! Seriously, these are the things that makes Android s u c k ????

PETTY:
pet·ty/ˈpetē/
Adjective:
Of little importance; trivial.
(of behavior) Characterized by an undue concern for trivial matters, esp. in a small-minded or spiteful way.

Maximum trolling

Misleading title anyway,he's just ranting on JB

Most of these are stupid points.

You never know what the back button will do? wtf how stupid is this user? when I push it, I go back a step or it exits the application if you're all the way back.

The Google voice icon makes no sense? Umm.. It's a frigging microphone, for someone to speak? *smashes face on keyboard*

The only one I agree with is the Play Store not remembering your scroll location.

And none of these points makes Android suck.

In fact, you suck for not being able to spell suck.

If someone compiled a list of why iOS sucked it would have at least 20 entries. And even as an android fan, I'll say iOS doesn't suck but it does have quite a few problems, imho, way more than Android.

At least make the title "Problems with Android" people might take you more seriously, like others have said, you're probably trolling

Pretty much my thoughts... With regards to the back button, for me it's pretty much gone back every single time. On iOS there is no back button so the developers decide if they want to put one there and if they want to make it go back one screen, or 2, or do something else completely random.
On WP7.5, you can press back to go back through every single screen since you booted up your phone (wtf?)

Well this does bug me somewhat. For instance, you open a message from your notification bar - you click back wanting to see the rest of your messages, but it exits the message app. Which of course is right because you never went there, but I can see why people might have this problem.

The only one I agree with is the Play Store not remembering your scroll location.

Yes this on bugs me too, and the one not being able to see only your purchased apps.

Just something to work on.

That depends on what you want, but yes Android suits me better.

Dammit. Damn vendors,

Listen guys no OS is without flaws. The fact that I cant see the apps I purchased is annoying but I can live with it.

If you cant live with the "flaws" in your opinion then move to another OS.

Bitching about the stuff will not fix it.

Move ON

Rant OVER

I see that, and raise you a

I read the article last night, and i have to agree with the points raised. I also have to mention that I never noticed one of these issues myself, so they have never bothered me.

I am also pretty certain the issues will be ironed out shortly.
