Bug Description
Currently when you open the address book, dialer app, clock app etc, the bottom edge hint is visible and shows what the action is. This hint is hidden after a few seconds. This makes it difficult for the user to understand what the bottom edge does if he didn't read the bottom edge text in time.
In the clock app design at https:/
-- Solution --
- Hint tab is always displayed by default
- When interacting with the content on screen it collapses (e.g. dialler - typing numbers, address book, clock - scrolling)
- When user stops interacting, it reappears after 5 seconds

Showing/hiding the bottom edge hint is a tricky one.
The proposal to hide the hint if you scroll up in the screen won't work with all applications. Especially with those, where there is no view to scroll, e.g. dialer app.
The initial idea was to show the hint for the first 3-5 times after launching the app, because user will learn what the bottom edge does.
The recommended solution can be either a combination or change to the following points:
1. Extend the bottom edge collapse to 5sec &/or
2. Only collapse the hint after user starts interacting with the content of the screen; dialer - typing numbers, address book - scrolling, etc
