Such a dumb restriction. I tried a new launcher a few weeks ago just to find out it would remove the gesture controls, which I’m already used to, had to go back to stock. I thought it was more of Xiaomi’s attempts to lock you in to their shitty ecosystem; quite sad it is like that even on other devices.
That was a problem in the old android 10 smartphones on some devices. Most smartphones except from xiaomi can use gestures with 3rd party launchers. Not allowing gestures with other launchers is on xiaomi.
The animations may be buggy and, there may be other bugs. But, it works in other brand smartphones.
Uh, makes sense, thanks for clearing that up.
So in my case it actually is Xiaomi being Xiaomi, screwing it’s power users, or any users in general.
Wait till you experience the unmitigated joy that is Xiaomi’s battery optimisations, resulting in permissions you grant to the launcher for gesture and media support to be constantly revoked. 🙄
The warning prompt for dangerous permissions is not fun either.
