I guess it’s kind of strange to request an Easter egg, but: yesterday I realized that if you tap the “back” area in the bottom of the screen multiple times it starts zooming out (after you get to the main menu).

Knowing how well Clear is made when it comes to these things, I kept tapping and watched it all get tiny, hoping to unlock some hidden reward. Sadly I didn’t even when the app itself had shrunk to an invisible dot in the middle of my screen.

I’m sure there are some for other gestures/cases, but this feels like an opportunity to add some reward tied to this?

It’s a bug that needs to be fixed. 😛

Not a bug. They might do more with it in the future.

> Fun little bug I found. Just keep tapping the bottom “back” button over and over. The UI continually shrinks down, getting smaller and smaller until it’s no longer visible. It pops back to correct size when you stop tapping back, but the back button should probably stop functioning when you’re at the top level.

Yep we left this one in in part because I knew we would pair a secret reward to it when we get to those 👀

And also because we just found it silly/fun, and we are the kind of people who would discover and try this too.

So this was expected?

That’s one way to get familiar with the back button. (Normal reward we snuck in last minute for launch to reward/help onboard it.)

It’s been a good way to get me to relearn. I have been using the pinch out for a decade. 🙂

I highly recommend pinchers and pull to go backers to give the back button a try and chance. It’s super efficient once you get going with it. (The idea behind it is your thumb already knows to reach around there to exit apps with the iOS gesture bar. Invisible button area is right above that.)

I love the invisible back button even though my go to is 3d touch screen to go back… I do miss being a “pull to go backer” lol

3D Touch is the best back gesture we ever came up with. You can ignore the invisible back button if you still have a device with that tech, because it’s actually a watered down version of ‘the entire screen is a back button if you press it’. (Though… when you upgrade phones… no more 3D Touch.)

I love the pinch to go back!  
I never use the button below because I find the pinch so satisfying, effortless and logic!

I’m always doing it by mistake in other apps without success! 😅

I forgot about the pinch to go back… so used to 3d touch… if I get a new device will have no choice but to use pinch to go back

You can get it to an entirely black screen in the end! … which is when I realized there might not actually be a reward for doing that😅
