D-pad and aim crosshair

PE currently has three settings, but there is no way to select D-pad and aimcross at the same time. 1. joystick and tap 2.D-pad and tap 3. joystick and aim Each person's control ability and convenient options are different, but my inconvenience is like this. Joystick method: You cannot use the double-tap function of the D-pad to run. Even the slightest wobbling of the input point is maneuvered diagonally, causing fatigue when boating or walking on a bridge. Tap method: Even if you press anywhere, it is recognized as a mining key, and there is a problem of hitting villagers and my pets often. The options that correspond to placement keys appear only in very limited contexts and are too small to touch. Aimcross method: I found it to be the best way to use separate mining and deployment keys, but it cannot be used with a D-pad. Most people play games by holding the bottom corner of the screen, so it feels reasonable to place frequently used keys like jump at the bottom.

    It'd be great if they had left the control schemes alone, it's been the same since I started playing MCPE in 2014, and it's worked for almost a decade, why change it now?

    Agreed; this would be great for builders too, as continuous placement would be much easier if you could move consistently in a cardinal direction without having to put your full focus into keeping your finger steady
