whata so confusing about android?
My first smart phone was the dinc. And it took me 25minutes to get the hang of it. So I don't understand why people say its confusing. All the simple things are in front of you. The phone,phone,book ,text and ,internet is there. I'm just so amazed that when I let my friends see my gnex they look shocked. Like a deer in hi beam lights. Also I was with a friend and her iPhone kept vib and I turned the volume all the way down trying to put it on silent. She said... you have to go in the settings to turn it off. now to me that's complicated.
So if you find android confusing please let me know what you find confusing.Privacy is overrated :P - 09-12-2012, 11:38 AM #2

Most people who say Android Confusing are Apple fans and Microsoft fans.

I don't think android is confusing, but you have to see that it's more involved that iOS, which is basically just an app drawer with a single button to get you back to the app drawer from where ever you are. I think anybody who's relatively tech savy can easily figure out Android, but if I'd was recommeding a smartphone to my mom or grandmother, I'd recommend iOS.

Or like my future mother-in-law and can't comprehend anything more advanced than a rotary dial phone. She isn't elderly, but she just can't get the hang of a basic Android, even after we set it up easy for her.
Now that I think about it, they do make rotary dial apps. Hmmm.... - 09-13-2012, 03:52 AM #6
Re: whata so confusing about android?
a few days ago i was in a bank, and there was this guy whose phone began to ring. it was an android phone. he spent so much time trying to figure out how to answer, and in the end i told him what to do, but the other party had already hung up. So apparently it is confusing for some people. I think this guy would have had problems even with iOS, because he simply didn't have the idea of touch operation.

Re: whata so confusing about android?
hi everybody
new to the android world, sort of
my daughter gave me a used superpad3 and i really liked the way it works,
so my wife gave me a flytouch8 superpad8 for fathers day.
now on the new machine i have a problem with mounting a usb keyboard and a usb stick
enable media scanning on sd + usb is ticked
in this new one only 1 will work at a time,
even though there are 2 usb ports, as well as a micro sd
how do i mount usb keyboard and usb data stick at the same time?
in the old flytouch3 there are no problems with this
they happily work together.
i prefer to keep my data on the usb stick sdo that i can access it when at home on the desktop pc with ease
my device is a 10.2" multi function tablet

Re: whata so confusing about android?
And a handful of webOS fans, myself included. My gf has had an Incredible since last year, and I never really got the hang of it, mind you, it was her phone, so I didn't really dig around too deep with anyway. Going on Day 4 now with my SGS3, and it's not that bad as I used to think. It's just like anything new, you're not going to "get it", until you actually start "doing it". I'm already starting to get pretty quick in finding my way around, and even task switching is becoming easier. Just have to reprogram my brain as to where the screen power button is (right side instead of top right), and remember there's no "up-gesture" to minimize apps
Due to the cancellation of the penny, I no longer give 2¢ about anything. I may however, give a nickel
