I installed a screen protector for the first time on Monday. I’ve been having issues getting my fingerprint to work and just would use my pin to unlock. This morning Android popped up a notification saying “Using a screen protector? Click here to increase touch sensitivity!” Pretty awesome.

Now stop asking me to use Gemini.

    I noticed the other day that my phone had a “glove mode” option in the display settings which seems to have that same effect. Notification didn’t pop up, but it was a nice feature to find in the settings. My fingertips are really callused, and it definitely made the touches more responsive.

    TBH, I hate when software “suggests” things to me, even if once in a while it is relevant/useful.

        Oh, Clippy. Lol, if only. 😆

        “Suggestion” has been co-opted lately to basically mean “ad” so I’m particularly salty about those nowadays.

        That said, if the “suggestion” was something like this, I would at least have a laugh:

        The Simpsons - The Fingers You Have Used to Dial Are Too Fat

        Funny story: That used to be the outgoing message on my voicemail. People hated it.
