Mobile UX Question: when do you open a new view inside of the tab you’re in vs open a new view in front of the tab you’re in? Ie: Netflix when you tap a title the details render in front of the bottom nav vs something like Twitter where the bottom nav is visible everywhere.

I’m curious because I’d say most guidelines are loose enough that they can be interpreted in multiple ways; otherwise all apps would look and interact the same. Which does not happen. Also, many apps thoughtfully break guidelines and are still very successful.

This might be a hot take but I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing if more apps interact the same.. I'd say there's more of a spectrum in terms of pure visuals, but accessibility should be accounted for either way

I 98% agree 😄. We shouldn’t make things different just for the sake of being different, however innovation requires deconstructing the status quo.

I don't think making something accessible and being innovative are mutually exclusive but I'll stop replying now lol
