Date input on mobile devices Actually, no! Selection technology has advanced significantly in the last year :) Both Android and Mobiscroll have since updated to use a scrolling style selection method, so you can scroll the wheel until you get the number you need. |

Android: Back Button Only vs. Extra Navigation I think that's Samsung's Touchwiz themed Messaging app. Definitely not the native version. Facebook is using a wholly different (and increasingly popular) sort of side navigation. G+ uses the side-nav as well. There's definitely no consistency within the operation system, though, since the guidelines are just guidelines. Clearly each product team in Google has their own opinions on UI implementation. |

What is the UI/UX term for in-view content “jumping” up/down due to changes out of view? "annoying"? :-) |

Why provide multiple resolutions for Android? Important to note that multiple image options mean each display type gets the best resolution for its density. My MDPI images are tweaked to make the best use of the fewer pixels. A source image may be high resolution, but trying to cram it into fewer pixels leads to some smooooshing. |

Denoting a tab as being “unsaved” in a web application This!! I really hate this type of settings layout that doesn't either autosave or just have ONE save button that clearly saves all my changes (labeled 'Save All Changes', of course). I get paranoid that changes in other tabs were not saved. Alternatively, is there a reason to keep them separate? phpdev, you say that each tab can be considered independent, however, they all contain profile settings that I tend to appreciate seeing on one screen. |

User friendly language for notifications? Why does the list need to be rearranged weekly? Why does the user have to initiate it? Can you not just keep the time of last refresh in your settings file and automatically refresh the list when the user loads the app/screen/whatever once a certain amount of time has passed? |

Ran out of space! Where do I position a language switch button? If switching to a landscape orientation is a possibility, you would have space to add another button. Alternatively, with the given interface, "Help" is where I'd look for that sort of thing. Do you expect the language to be changed a lot? |

Android: Action bar vs. Toolbar, Spinner vs. Dropdown My assumption was always that they wanted the new terms so that specific details and functionality would be recognizable. Everyone knows what a "toolbar" is: a bunch of buttons in a row. But a "context sensitive action bar" is a distinct subset of that category with clear, defining characteristics. Same with spinner and picker. Perhaps a case of a square being a rectangle, but a rectangle not being a square... |

When given the choice on a website; are people more likely to download the app or keep using the browser? I'm with @BenBrocka - I never have and I probably never will. Nielsen says apps are better now and sites will be better at some magical point in the future. That's probably true when everything is equal (i.e., you already have the app downloaded). But users are on the mobile site right now and installing an app and then getting back to whatever they were looking at in the app takes time. And time can definitely cost you customers. |

Colliding icon meanings I agree as well. You have some compelling arguments, especially that the device IS the context! Our latest release adds many new icons, almost all of them stock, but I did tweak the one that I was planning to use off-label (None of the ones from my question, actually, as I pulled generic examples) to something similar, but unique, that still clearly defines what it does. |
