As much as I don’t like negative threads, there’s one thing in iOS that really irritates me, and I want to air it…

Pressing and holding the tab button in Safari to access tab groups, should have a haptic response.

Because it doesn’t, I often end up opening the tab view instead, so I have to huff a little, hit Done, then try again. I don’t know why it annoys me that it doesn’t because none of the other buttons in Safari do, but I feel like it should.

No, I have not contacted Tim Apple about this. Yes, I probably should.

    The weird, cult like mindset that both developers and users have for Apple.

        Oh it isn’t? The blue bubble thing isn’t real? The standing in line for a phone? Devs living inside the walled garden on a platform that has 10% market share? Ok, kid…

          This has absolutely no relevance to the UX of Apple software (which is the topic of this post), but everything to do with the fact that you’re trolling in a community of Apple users.

          It’s also ironic how you’re willing to point out trolling, then exhibit that behavior yourself. Practice what you preach.

            I didn’t know this topic was specific to UI stuff. I’m not trolling. These are my honest views and I thought I was sharing them like everyone else here.

            Just because you don’t like what I’ve said doesn’t make it trolling.

      Have been alive 30 years and yet to see even one of these cult-like rabid apple fanboys Android people online talk about. In fact, almost any time anyone has ever mentioned their phone to me is because they had an Android. Pretty sure you’re misconception is based on the day 1 lines people would form for Apple products but that’s because they were new and exciting technology. Everyone wanted the iPhone 4, now every phone is just a faster iPhone 4 with more camera.

        So if you’ve never experienced something that means it doesn’t exist? Must be nice.

          That’s not what I said, what I said was I have never encountered somebody like that. Therefore rabid Apple fans are not nearly as common as everyone on the internet says it is. The internet acts like they can’t go a day without somebody shoving an iPhone in their face trying to get them to convert. I have only had people try to convert me to Android, which I tried for three straight years. Not once in those three years did an iPhone user tell me I should switch to iPhones. Nobody above 12 years old cares irl, it’s just a cell phone. They all do the same thing…
