So now I have to open Bluetooth to toggle it on and off instead of a one-click toggle. Real shit "feature upgrade" (sh.itjust.works)

And there's no way to fix it short of flashing a new rom,as I understand. Just have to deal with the extra step now.

I was not impressed with this phone and they just keep making it less-user friendly.

I mean how the fuck are they justifying not letting you see which devices are connected to your hotspot?

Ri-diks.

That's good to hear. I can understand why they might make this an option, but to force me to click three times instead of once is bizarre.

The toggle is in a different part of the screen, So I've tried switching the tile over to where the title shows up after I select Bluetooth, but making a "quick tile" slower and more cumbersome is a bizarre design choice.

Why do you like it?

Why do you like it?

Not them but pretty simple: I swap devices more often than I turn it on/off these days

I have a smartwatch so it's on most of the time. A pair of mobile Bluetooth headphones and a Bluetooth speaker at home, so swapping > on/off for me

I don't configure my smart watch (Garmin tracker) for notification, text, call access, as I prefer not to send those private communications to a third (and fourth, and fifth...) party. Also, my watch battery last three extra days if I disable Bluetooth at all tines except sync.

So for me, quick toggle was what I enjoyed.

Fuck Google... More like Microsoft every day.
