I don’t care how they do it but I want to be able to press and hold the flashlight icon and, without lifting my finger, immediately begin to slide my finger up and down to adjust flashlight brightness.
Boo form over function. Very minor nod to the increased granularity.
Android only started with the brightness adjustment from version 13. So any phone with Android 13 and higher should have it.
Then I am left only to assume my Pixel 6a doesn’t support it. At least not in any manner I know to be intuitive.
