Serious question, does anyone else think the 3-click rule for apps is outdated?
I was trying to update my profile picture in a new social app and it took me 7 taps to get to the upload screen. Some say more clicks means a cleaner layout, but I think it just hides basic functions. What's your take on menu depth now?

Ugh, absolutely! I tried to change a notification sound last week and fell into a menu black hole. It feels like they're burying simple stuff on purpose to look minimalist. Just let me do the thing.

Honestly, sometimes I wonder if we're just getting impatient. Seven taps is a lot, but maybe they're trying to avoid a cluttered screen full of buttons. I've definitely hit a menu dead end before, but I usually find the setting on the second try.
