I'm somewhat wary of jumping into an issue that is obviously extremely personal and emotional for people, but this remark struck me as odd:
You can’t even resort to just hitting the home button
blindly a bunch of times, because if you hit it too
rapidly, the iPhone will interpret it as a double-tap.
What I find odd is that double-tap is the number one way that I launch apps. The author mentions the double-tap as if its a bad thing (in the context of finding an app to launch) and yet double-tap is the way to get to the recently-used apps to display.
I can't fault him on the other points, but this seemed like a blind-spot.
- kobepanda 15y agoI totally agree. As has been established elsewhere, most users only use 3-6 applications on a regular basis. Double tapping the home button bring up my most recently used applications along the bottom of the screen one of which is probably the one I want (not sure where the author got the idea that double tapping the home button brings up the search screen-- old version of iOS?).
