Such a feature is dumb in the first place. The phone doesn't know what's going in. It's not "smart" or "intelligent".

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

Not stronger. And they would have to stay lightweight.
But faster would be fine fine if used at sensible times (i.e. to avoid danger itself or a person).

Not surprising on Apple after the maximum shrinkage apple had yoy in Q2. Its like they jumped in a cold pool then went back to normal after getting back out.

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.

Don't forget though, Google collects so much more metadata than Apple does, especially re: location data (for maps) so my above points are a bunch easier for Google to do it.

Erm…. Phone drop while driving? As in, using your phone while driving?

I never use cubbies and leave my phone in a zippered pocket when I go on rides. Less hassle getting on and off the ride and I don't have to worry about my phone being taken.

Not exactly. You're not allowed to have them out while riding, but you can carry them on with you if they are secured. Zippered pockets are wonderful for storing phones.

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

Of course, because it is absolutely not possible to put your phone on the dash or center console and have it fall during a corner or a brake.

Uhhh. No. You dont want autonomous robots that are faster or stronger than humans in public settings.

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.

In have my phone on the center console plugged in to the car. I've had it fall down from there while driving before. It is possible to drop the phone without directly using it.
