Question for left-handers: some app UIs have a right handed bias. For example, Google Photos has a scroll handle you can use to quickly scroll through long lists of photos, but it's on the right of the screen.

Do you notice when an app has a bias towards right-handedness? Is it annoying? How do you deal with it?

Phones being as big as they are I doom scroll with my right hand holding the phone and go two handed for typing or anything needing more refined motor skills

Thanks for participating in my highly scientific survey. I did a bit of googling and there's surprisingly little written about left/right-handed accessibility. Probably because, as you suggest, it's a bit of a non-issue. Good to know.
