Hi All, I have bought the Nexus 4 (Android 4.2.2) and noticed that their are only 3 Bottom Buttons now. The conventional "Show Options" button is no longer present, what I see is: Back, Home, History and "...". I believe the small "..." may be hard for users to find the refresh button in. Are there any plans to add a refresh button to the Nav Bar? Jake Title Comments Hi All, I have bought the Nexus 4 (Android 4.2.2) and noticed that their are only 3 Bottom Buttons now.
