Hi just wondering whether or not to add a pull to refresh in my app. I am used to ios so i know the pull to refresh feature well and i like it however i am unsure whether or not this is a standard in android.
Should i use pull to refresh or stick with a standard refresh button
The “recommended” use case for refresh on Android is a button in the Action Bar. That said, as Paul-Jan mentioned, the Facebook and Twitter apps both use it, and I think it’s actually a very nice and intuitive UI pattern. I would maybe suggest going with both — a refresh button in the Action Bar as well as pull to refresh.
