Funny that Windows gets forced simplicity, Apple goes the opposite, more gestures and hot corners which means that there is no place to move the mouse that will not produce an effect.
On iOS, the fact that the Home Button brought you back home every time was a selling point, so when you are in the sun, you click once and you know where you are. Then they introduced the 2-click on Home for the Control Center, 3-click, 4-click and now, it’s a cycle, so you never are home. Same for the swipe up to bring the control center, which you always have to do twice because the first scroll up generally brings the local app’s own swipe gesture. Apple became a model of stuffing the maximum of gestures, while Windows went the way of the simplicity. I can’t wait the day when Satya Nadella says “The problem with Apple guys is, they have no taste”…
- evilduck 5y agoIt's not really evident you've actually held an iPhone or operated a Mac based on how strangely off your complaints are. Gesture and hot corner features and complexity hasn't really changed in over a decade. Getting to the home screen on any iOS device is still just one click or swipe and has never necessitated multiple clicks or allowed apps to override the OS level gestures.
