I agree that the native apps work well. For one app take a look at one called App Eater that is a bulk app remover. This is pretty typical of a lot of the third party apps. As an iPhone user too I wish there was a lot more pressure from Google to app developers to get them to label all buttons etc.

Gil, I do have to ask one question however. You would stated that most of the android apps have lots upon lots of unlabeled buttons. when you say most of the android apps, what apps exactly are you specifically referring to? I have found that most of the native Google apps work fantastically straight out-of-the-box. okay, I'll grant you, there may be a couple of unlabeled buttons here and there, but they are very few and far between. so I'm a little bit confused on that statement you made. Can you be a little bit more specific? Chris. Sent from my iPhoneOn May 29, 2014, at 12:11, Gil Lutz <testing@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Thanks, Chris.

Now place your finger in the center of the screen, and then ever so slightly slide straight up toward the top of the screen. Go slow, or you'll miss it. There is an option there called label button, I think it says? Once your finger is hoverring on this, lift your finger from the screen. Now, type the label. Then locate the save button. Be careful as I think there is also a done button in here on your keyboard itself. That isn't what you want. You actually wanna find the save button above the keyboard. Double tap this, and there you go.

I have a Moto X. I haven't been able to figure out how to label buttons. This is a big problem as the Android apps contain many, many, too many unlabeled buttons. I've done Google searches for instructions and find the results lacking. Thanks in advance, Gil To post to the list, simply send email to vi-android@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
