In this update, Mini Apps run more like native apps rather than web pages — check out the screen recording to see it in action.

Also, opening Chachi in the Mini App will take you straight to Keychat’s public discussion group. You’re welcome to join!

While using a Mini App, you can tap the circle in the top right corner to exit and return to the browser’s home screen — just like pressing the Home button on a phone to go back to the home screen. The circle serves as a virtual Home button.

I find the button to be confusing. Most people's home button/function is in the center-bottom of their device. Top right button is typically an X to get out of something.

Most smartphones no longer have a home button. Instead, users swipe up from the bottom edge to exit apps and return to the home screen — and this gesture is reserved by the system. That leaves us with only two options: placing it in the top right corner or at the center bottom. But putting it at the center bottom would block part of the screen content.

Perhaps we should try placing it at the center bottom and see how it feels.

On graphene, in Settings>System>Gestures>Navigation mode, I currently have 3-button navigation selected instead of the default Gesture navigation. Might eventually switch back, but for now I like the more deterministic?/predictable? feel. May be very few that choose this, but just wanted to input at least one reference point in case it might play some part in your UI decisions. Thank you for your app!
