Hi ... That's my enhancement request. And on your shared screenshot I can see that you also don't have a refresh button on top of the settings button? So why do I have one?

@redphx: Does the refresh button only show up on Android TV? Because as I need a mouse to press that button, I could also just use "pull to refresh". Because that also works with a mouse if you press and hold the left mouse button at the top of the page and then pull down.

I use Logitech G Cloud. Essentially it's an Android tablet with an attached controller. The refresh button I think is missing because the device have a built-in touch screen.

This is not really an issue because the Settings button only blocks the shortcut when you're at the top of the page. When scrolling down the search shortcut is still there, so users can still see it.
Fixing it will break the UI and I don't like it.

Ok, but moving the settings icon to the left could be a solution.

Hm, but if it's on the left side, it will be in "conflict" with the Xbox Guide menu. ;)

My suggestion was to do those things with an app dialog box that shows up on the screen if the user presses Android's Back button (as every Android (TV) device has one). And that would include all needed options like "open app settings", "refresh page", "quit app" and maybe "check for updates". So you can check for pending updates without having to close and reopen the app first.

No, it depends on z-index level. It could be covered when the Guide is opened. But my point of view is as an handheld user.
