Bedrock mobile control

Can we have the old bedrock control layout back? the recent1.20.7 update changed both the layout and style of the controls, making them less intuative and more intrusive to the play experience.

The old more translucent style fit much better when playing and didn't actively block a section of the screen. The placement is now also incredibly awkward. When playing on any sort of tablet they are almost out of reach in the current position and are easy to mistap.

For all of us who have spent years playing with the previous control layout, we'd like the option to have it back

    100% agree as a tablet player the new spacing of the buttons is so so difficult to use

    I'm using an iPad and the new touch controls in 1.2.71 have made them unusable, please add an option to revert to the old touch control interface design!

    The touch controls in 1.20.71 have ruined Minecraft - please change the Dpad controls back!!! Or include an option to change back to the previous layout and controls.

    Si,porfavor por lo menos que solo cambien las texturas pero que esten en la misma exacta posición que antes ,pero aparte de eso también separaron mucho los botones de cada uno y estuvimos acostumbrados por años a esos botones

    Si!! Odio los nuevos diseños de los controles, extraño el viejo diseño, cuando los vi por primera vez me desespere porque no podía controlar mi minecraft en absoluto, era imposible, entoces busque desesperadamente una opción para cambiarlos al antiguo, pero lo único que encontré fue la opción experimental para ajustar los controles, y aunque se siente mejor no es lo mismo que los antiguos controles, así que, por favor Mojang considera agregar una opción para cambiar a los controles antiguos.. Muchas gracias

    It’s so annoying when you try to swim and the buttons turn tiny, please bring back the old ones

    I agree, they should return the old controls or improve the new ones, they are very uncomfortable

    Please Mojang, we beg you. the new control makes movement extremely difficult, especially on large devices like Ipads.

    What might be a partial workaround for now is customising the d-pad position and/or size.

    Edit: If the d-pad is really a problem, the joystick option is a workaround.

    Realmente, Esses novos controles estão dificultando minha jogabilidade, e creio eu que a de muitos outros jogadores da versão mobile.

    Yes ive never seen a more perfect example of changing something that didnt need to be changed. It just brought down the playability by so many levels
