You say this, but have you tried an old iPhone recently? I did, and it was actually pretty terrible. The quick little swipes to switch between apps is so much more natural now.
I recently learned you can swipe on the address bar in Android-Chrome to navigate to the next/previous tab. Also, press+hold on the tab count button to show the tab's options e.g. close tab. Now my address bar is on the bottom of the screen.
Terrible discoverability. I guess the genalpha kids know gestures like this, but stuff like this makes me feel like a boomer.
Try going back to thumb typing, no long press symbols , and no cursor movement from your spacebar. I've almost thrown my test iPhone at work across a room more times than I'd like to admit (since it doesn't belong to me)...

Perhaps if you know how. Watching my dad use his iPhone.. Every time have to teach him something new, and hope he remembers it.
So stupid interface. No discoverability.
Whenever I use my wife's iphone I feel like an idiot. I've been working in tech for 20 years

I wish. The iPhone 5S is the last one I can reliably type on. Idk what they did to screw up the hitboxes.
Yes, my wife has an iPhone 6, I wish I had that. Though half of that is the jack.
I will keep my SE 3rd gen a looong time for that specific reason
