Hi,
Color me confused. What exactly do you mean by native? Do you mean
you've designed a different interface for each platform (which is
what I usually understand native to mean in this context) or do you
mean that you're designing a single interface for all 3 that is
native to some unspoken
thought has
to go into which button to press.
All of which I think takes the original question out of the context
in which it was posed, but I think we need to consider the idea that
the Good is not always the same in every context.
