Right in time. And not just the design is broken but also the code.
Lately I've been fascinated by
that all new apps and services I've started to use are all broken.
A first surprise was Instagram has no iPad app just mobile; Pinterest doesn’t let you upgrade your profile pic on web just inside the app; the Dribbble app doesn’t let you update your profile nor upload posts; Pinterest can’t take a https url in your profile just www; when adding a photo on Behance the photos from the iPad folder are doubled; and so on.
My first thought was: we live in the era of design, there are billion dollar companies, yet the experience they offer sucks.
And the second: what the hell those designers and developers do out there? Is everybody in a bubble in the valley?
- Psilidae 9y agoIt thoroughly confuses me how every company seems to want to reach as many customers as possible yet most would rather invest time on maintaining multiple platform-specific native apps rather than have one good web app. It's just splitting design resources, engineering and testing resources, and shutting out customers who actually want to use the service but don't have the system on which they chose to focus.
