Pulley menu could be either on top or bottom and could or couldn't present any further options - sometimes only the about info...

How do you bring up the ambience switcher? I've never managed to do that

Pulley menus are on the bootom only if the dev felt that four are not enough and added more on the bottom. I know of only one app that has both top and bottom pulles identical - TinyEdit.

Actually TinyEdit highlights the weakness of pulley menus. They are a great hammer but TinyEdit has shown that not everything is a nail. Saving a long file in the middle of editing is impossible without losing your current position. The dev tried to somehow alleviate it by adding the bottom pulley menu but that helps only when you are close to the end of the file.

The rest is just a learning curve. I did not find any inconsistency. Swipe back to previous screen (cancel) etc. I would prefer if you had to confirm changes in settings pages rather than apply them immediately but that seems to be the trend everywhere so... tough life.

That's exactly the one I find objectionable. I would prefer to see only the accounts there, no emails at all.

You like it, I don't. An option would be nice indeed.
