Yo how'd our hommie sideofburritos get old school quick access on GrapheneOS? Is this just an old version? The video's only a year old! So I'm on GOS Android 13 (aka big dumb quick access button purgatory), totally confused and totally jealous. I can only imagine an out of touch board testing a new android version and telling the developers to make the buttons bigger and dumber while they tell their managers "okay, we can do that" while they die a little inside. This is the most egregious design offense committed in the history of AOSP.

Please tell me this can be fixed with System UI Tuner or some other bullshit that doesn't kill my battery life or privacy.

No you don't. You used to, and then the WiFi and Data buttons were both put under an Internet button. It's aweful design. All of it.

I had to sacrifice some features for privacy and security, that's one of them, amen

You do know that you can edit that menu and get your WiFi and data buttons back? That's what I did and I'm on android 13. Sure it's not good that it's not the default but it's not the end of the world

What phone are you on? I'm on a Pixel 6 and I'm not seeing the separate toggles in the quick tile edit menu. Afaik it's only possible with a custom built or modified version of 13, or a third party app that adds the button itself.

My bad, I'm on a degoogled lineageOS rom with a oneplus 5t and have the options in my edit menu. Didn't know it was different all around

How'd you edit the menu? I don't have a option to separate those buttons natively on GrapheneOS/A13.
