It's like they decided that if their tablet apps are going to be bad stretched out phone UIs, the other platform can't have a dedicated tablet UI either.
- makecheck 11y agoIn theory I like the idea that developers can now push useful updates to all of their customers like never before. In practice, though, we see too many versions that are garbage. Why is that? Google is far from the first offender (plenty of unnecessary redesigns and feature-removing "upgrades" coming from Apple and Microsoft too, say) but it's becoming a fundamental software architecture issue. It's getting to the point where I want a 3-tiered set of app-updating preferences that says "low-level security updates and fixes are automatically OK", "prompt me for any new-feature updates" and "hell no on any re-peanut-buttering-of-the-UI updates".
