Further setup menu mode of operation has changed, Google added a right slide exhaled control menu, such as setting up the network interface, you can slide right total exhaled menu, while iOS 9 using the same approach can let you return to previous page. In short this little feature is very useful in applications where they can also use, be replaced manually tap the Menu key in the old model.
Some unbearable BUG
