I have to swipe down twice on Android to do what took a single swipe on iOS.

swipe down with two fingers

You can even quickly swipe twice.

yeah that's what I do normally. the people in this thread are just a bunch of complainers

TIL. I just set the right side of the drawer to pull it all the way down.

I guess one-handed phones are really dead now

I switched to a iPhone mini not long ago, and I love how well it works one-handed

This.. works. Ultimately one of the smaller issues (and different swipe regions are just easier), but it's a little faster.
