I understand what they mean because I’ve also experienced it. The text entry box doesn’t follow the text after it gets to a certain point, it begins to just disappear off screen like right now, after this line I cannot see the text I’m thonbg at this moment

I don't think you could detect the force direction quickly enough to do that.

On a static phone you can detect down using gravity. When the phone is potentially spinning and moving in any direction you can't as easily separate the forces applied from the phone motion. Essentially you get an output of forces in 3d but it isn't tied to a direction directly.

I'm willing to bet they didn't understand your feature request... because I'm still confused as to what you mean, lol

Probably an unpopular opinion, but there’s just too many features these days and not enough good programmers writing them or thinking things through. Every tech gadget is getting too difficult to use. Like the Reddit app I’m using to type this won’t expand past the last sentence and shrinks even more if I miss click the expand arrows.

Anyways, old man yells at cloud yada yada.
