Geofencing in Reminders is a mess. I don't understand Apple's insistence on having an address, for several reasons:
1. Not all places have an address;
2. I don't necessarily know the exact address of a place even if it has one, but I can pin point it visually on a map;
3. Apple Maps' data is incomplete and inaccurate anyway.
- arthurcolle 7y agoSpot on! What do you think about this situation beyond geofencing? Like, how badly do you have to fuck up to not be able to ensure continuity on artificial abstractions like "an instance of a reminder" across a major upgrade? (Major as in major-minor versioning). Honestly if I was head honcho I would fire any engineers that were involved in this specific app/decision to add new features and not care about backwards compatibility. It's really that bad, IMO /radical
