First of all the upgrade removed my pinned contacts and apps, so I had to start the game of whack a mole all over again. The default suggested apps and contacts were apps I never used and people I never contact.

You get 5 options now instead of 4 which is ok, but you can’t have two rows of favorites. Just one. The first pinned app slot is now taken up by a permanent “nearby share” icon that can’t be removed so you basically have 4 pinned app slots.

I still haven’t been able to pin the handful of individuals I share things with yet. Hopefully eventually they are graced by the algorithm lords and show up some day so I can pin them.

    At this point I am pretty sure Google wants the share menu unusable for some reason. It’s been garbage for so long…

      Possibly because it makes YouTube alternatives too convenient when you can share straight from YouTube to Newpipe.

        I think you’re seriously overestimating the number of people who would actually benefit from that ease of use.

        Yup. I used to use the official YouTube App and then “share” each Video to Firefox. They must have realized that because jow they force an extra 2 clicks to do that.
