The Rotary Dial: A Navigation For Everyone
I built a mobile menu with Figma Make that ACTUALLY fits your hand, whether you are left- or right-handed.
The Vision 🚀 Large phones make buttons hard to reach. The Dial moves everything to the 'Natural Zone', the bottom corner where your thumb rests or where it is most comfortable for you. Inspired by the old-school rotary phone dial.
Why it works:
No Stretching: Everything stays within thumb’s reach.
Movability: Slide the dial to either side to match your grip.
Contextual: Icons change automatically (e.g., Feed vs. Chat).
The best part? You get massive functionality without screen clutter. Every tool is just a quick thumb-flick away.
Figma Make let me focus on what is more important, 'the user' rather than the build. Try it: https://nimbus-rabid-02055702.figma.site/

Thank you Halyna, I thought it would be a great opportunity to rethink something that every other app just reuse and never thinks about and its such a simple upgrade and usable for everyone. Especially for those who dose not have 2 hands. 😞
