Wanted to see how everyone in the community felt about the using the android navigation bar buttons vs using gesture control.

I’ve used the navigation buttons since they released on android and just recently started trying to use the gesture based navigation. It’s been a little difficult for me to adapt to it so far, but curious what others experience has been.

    I tried using gestures multiple times and always went back to 3 button navbar. Back gesture constantly interfered with any kind of side panels and opened apps gesture always triggered the app drawer on my home screen.

    Besides navbar is plain faster and offers additional features, like keyboard selector and screen rotation when auto is turned off.
