The universal search can only search for contacts and apps. It does
not give me the option to take scroll screen shot. Typing this on my pixel 3a Xl.

    The UI looks like the love child of Lumia and MIUI and got the good genes.

          I just received A12 now on my pixel 4A and I was pretty excited about it. However, I'm here to say that it is the most boring software upgrade in years. Thanks Google. IT IS UGLY

Yeah, it does look like the late-1960s and 1970s. I don't mind living in those decades. Been rewatching Dazed And Confused over and over lately. And random high school videos from the mid-70s. I just don't want that color palette on my phone!

But, notice theyre making it look like the 60's or 70's, just like with clothes, fashion and other things starting to look like that worldwide. Not sure what their plan is this time. Nonetheless, this is ugly. Hopefully Samsung, Sony, and such, do not follow Google's horrifying design language.

                            Is the app drawer transparent in android 12? Or still frustratingly opaque like in android 11 on pixel phones where you can't even see the background wallpaper?

You seem to be trapped in the past where stock android was preferred over other Android skins which weren't good enough at that time.

                                      A lot of non-tech people criticising android is what I don't understand. What has iOS really changed about their design? A lot of idiots come here to give so much credit to a particular narrow brand and condemn the other, while literally, they have no knowledge of how these things really come to be. Every other Android version released by Google sees some tweaks just so the whole process doesn't get boring, but iOS has always been where it was and Apple will always defend their underperformance with good English. What is this?

Dude they have been making billions... moreThe fact that every year, the new features incorporated into stock android are all features that existed on Chinese ui for 4-5 years is enough to confirm the fact that they are more advanced compared to stock android.
                                        Chinese android skins copy ios features?? Lol ios is ten years behind any android. It's been reduces to being a copycat OS. Even after copying, they can't implement it properly.
                                        ios is as relevant as Windows phone.
