Apple likes flashy presentations but they are far, FAR behind on proper support for developers. Addressing problems would go a lot further with developers than a bunch of videos.
It’s not even difficult to come up with a starting list:
- Add COMPLETE documentation (but we’d all settle for “any” in most cases)
- Fix all the NEW bugs being added in each update (and obviously get to the old ones too); also, it would be nice if an embarrassing number of problems weren’t in the developer tools themselves...
- After 10+ years provide support for sane income options on the App Store (free trials, paid upgrades, no need to create complex IAP patterns)
- Abolish 80-90% of App Review, since it clearly fails to prevent any scams but does steal endless energy from developers dealing with pointless rejections or delays
- Put some restraints on the UI “designers” that keep ruining functional UI and making it work worse than ever; development is actually becoming harder because things I use everyday are being fiddled with
- sturza 6y agoAny sources/examples for these references? They seem just angry venting.
- kitsunesoba 6y agoThe apple dev experience is far from perfect, but it's not like the competition is much better. I find myself frustrated when working on Android projects much more frequently.
