As I'm going on 3 months with my MZ2P, I decided to stop using 1 button navigation. When I try to go back, and I accidentally get out of the app all together, I decided it was time to stop using it. I like the extra real estate I get by using it, but am just frustrated. Who likes it?

I've been using it for about 3 months.
I experience the unintentional HOME issue, too.
It seems that if I swipe left, to go back, using a slightly arched or curved swipe, bottom right corner, up to middle, down to bottom left corner, it seems to happen less.
I am still using and preferring One Button Nav.

I happen to be in the seemingly minority who actually finds the one button navigation intuitive, but only after "forcing" myself to get used to it in a few days.

I loved it even if I too was always ending up on my home screen, I thought muscle memory would do the job eventually but it never did. It's a shame because it's a great way to prevent burn ins as well. There was a learning curve when the phone was in landscape mode and I tried to go back.

I used to, for the same reason. A bit more screen real estate. I stopped using it because it was interfering with using the fingerprint reader for application unlocks, and the nav function was kinda glitchy on its own.

I just got my Z2P a little over a month ago and set up the 1 button nav and overall I still like it even though I get annoyed once in a while with going home. At this point I think I will still keep it as I feel like I am getting better at using it.

that is best thing ever on mobile phone. use it since first days and extra space on screen and missing of boring android standard buttons, compensate everything else.

took a day or so to get used to, and I still sometimes end up on my home screen accidentally. but overall one of my favorite things about Moto.

I was researching a similar subject, and ran across a Lenovo bulletin board discussing the ONE BUTTON NAV going home, instead of back.
The fix suggested, is to swipe lower on the pad.
It does seem to go home less, swiping lower.

One Button Navigation is an awesome feature. It's been working for me most, if not all, of the time.

Great way to deal with navigation button burn-in.

I don't have the Z2 Play, but I enabled the One Button Navigation the first day I used my G5S+ and never looked back. Awesome feature.
