The UI is harder to parse and you have to read the tiny letters instead of the big icon to see what it is. Awful.
This was all the rage in mid-late 2000s. Remember all the phone themes you could download/buy? Cool cars, knife and blood, barbie etc.
Seems like legibility simply isn’t a concern back then.
Calendar, Gmail, and maaaaybe the Wallet one are kinda’ usable as icons. I guess.
Can you not position app launchers on iOS still? All my apps are in a specific location so I get to them by muscle memory anyways. All 3 that I use
You can position icons on iOS now, but I’m still using sight predominantly because there’s no physical feedback on a touchscreen. Also I don’t use the smart phone that much, maybe more people are like you in this case.
Android just has the home row right at the bottom so I put browser, camera, and messaging, and phone there. It’s just easy to remember because they’re always in those exact locations no matter which page I’m on
