Now it seems ALL my pictures are now suddenly on OneDrive when I would have only wanted a culled-down set. Maybe they were already there because I'm using a Windows phone but this wouldn't have been clear to me.
If the OneDrive app had left the home button exposed, I would have used it to back out of the app. But the only option was something like "Ok, let's go" and clicking on that (again, there was no option but to do so) seemed to then immediately upload my pics.
A hardware home/Windows button has a number benefits:
- Can wake up the phone easier than the power button if the phone is in some orientations (such as lying on the desk)
- Doesn't take up screen real estate
- Is always there for you (doesn't get hidden by an app that takes over the screen)
