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 app store doesn’t let you see if an app has an ad banner built in or not.
ill be deep in the cold cold ground before i let some guitar tuner app download ads in the background and shove it in my face…
but how do i know which ones are bullshit without installing and uninstalling each one?
it’s so stupid.
also, if i hold down the wifi quick toggle when it’s locked, it asks for my pin and then just turns it off… that should be a single press.
if i hold it while it’s unlocked, i get the expected wifi settings menu, so i can select a network or whathaveyou…
death by 1,000 paper cuts
oh and to beat a dead horse: not letting me sideload my own apps on my own device is complete bullshit
Apps have become so monetized now that I just don’t use new ones any more and just keep the ones I bought 10 years ago.
Speaking of the App Store… I want a guitar tuner app that doesn’t collect information, but I can’t search with that as a filter so instead I have to open each app to check the privacy first.
Any luck with that?

This is the one I used to use in high school. It looks like it collects about as little as you can get these days.
