Many phones already have this solved through software.

Not Apple though. I constantly trigger something I don’t want while I try to reach the top left with my thumb.

Well Apple hasn’t solved it, because every time I try to set my phone down but leave an app open like instacart or DoorDash or Uber, with a map so I can check where my driver is, and I go to pick up the phone again, it taps the map which launches the map app, so I’m in an entirely different app when I’m trying to quickly check on something time sensitive. It’s super fucking annoying.

Also obscuring the top portion of the screen with the speaker and camera is pretty fucking stupid too.

So yeah, I hope they “solve all that with software” or whatever the fuck……….
