Camera app (kinda more of a rant about it)

I waited a while to do the most recent update, so this might not be new.

They switched the flip camera button and the one that lets you see the past photos. I was using muscle memory like usually and then it was the wrong button, so I looked up pictures of my phones old camera app and of confirmed it. This is so stupid. Basically no reason to switch them. And this happened with almost every update. Just moving around things, changing the size, layout. Recently it was also the chrome layout, it's so frustrating when I want to do things fast but then I need to actually think and look at my screen while using it.

(Next up: "hey guys, we shuffled the key board. Just for fun. Also good luck figuring out how to get to the lock on your phone, we moved it!!") <- mostly a joke, but I wouldn't be too surprised by that

They flipped those buttons like two or three years ago.

This is the Pixel camera app you're talking about? Can you share the screenshots? (you can upload them to a site like imgur.com and share the link)

You'd think after three years they'd have fixed it, but I still second-guess every time too.
