More intuitive UI for Android (suggestion)
-
Hello my Friends!
here are a lot of topics regarding UI elements and I would also like to share mine.First, the main-screen:
Current state (beta)
Suggestion
Buttons for the Bookmarks-Screen and the Tabs-Scree with arrows pointed up (and if open pointed down, see next images), everything else is fine as it is
Bookmarks-Screen
Current state
Suggestion
arrow pointed down (thus, if pressed, return to Main), search in the middle like main-screen and Vivaldi-Menu instead "X" like main-screen.
Tabs-Overview
Current state
Suggestion
again pointed down arrow and the button in one place instead of "X" to return to main. In the upper bar Vivaldi-menu instead of "X". Add another "+" in inverted colours for private tab.
If they "swoosh" up like drawers, then it really easy to understand, that if you press in the same place, you get to the main-screen. Vivaldi-Menu is always in the same position and in the tab-overview the extra menu would be obsolete (to some extent)
What do you think?

Please clarify in the title and text that you only mean changing the animations, not the function of the buttons.

The animation part would be actually the least important. It is more about a more intuitive layout in all of these screens. -
it's not that important with the regular 3 or 2 button Android system navigation systems but it's important with the new Android 10 gestures. In terms of the layout, this makes a lot more sense too as the button to open the tab switcher is in the same place as the button to close the tab switcher.
