unintuitive volume slider

strife-john-frozen

This is one of the first things I noticed when I started using GrapheneOS. When trying to change the volume via the volume slider, it always jumps to the position of my thumb instead of just sliding up/down from its current position with the thumb, which often leads to me setting the volume way too high by mistake.
I think this is the default AOSP behavior, I am not sure if its the same on the Pixel stock os, but it is very unintuitive. I hope this is something that can be fixed (or maybe it already is in QPR1?).
I think OneUI and iOS behave similarly to the behavior I expected.

strife-john-frozen I would be surprised if this changed. Definitely not by GrapheneOS. My recommendation is to get used to it or exclusively use the volume rocker buttons.

yup, volume slider in iOS behaves the way you described.
tapping on slider doesn’t immediately set the slider position to place user tapped.
the slider size is much smaller though, so it is a question of habit, i think.
to be honest, i don’t even realized there was a difference before your post.

You can always use the volume buttons to move from you current level.
