They were famous for it. That’s why Jobs, when he came back, stopped the practice. So people would learn that when Apple announced it it was done.

- pjmlp 3y agoWhich doesn't change the fact that they also did it. And in regards to modern Apple, the settings panel and SwiftUI are more of a work in progress kind of thing, than actually done.
- MBCook 3y agoYes they did do it. But I called out post Steve Jobs return in my comment gif that reason. Have people called SwiftUI and the new settings panels vaporware? I’ve never heard that. I’m neutral on the new settings design, but they do have a lot to fix there. SwiftUI is pretty great when you can do what you want. Every release that encompasses more. I’m not sure you can reasonably make a fully featured UI toolkit in secret, I think you need external devs to help find issues and gaps. Letting it out early may have been a good idea for that reason, though it was quite rough at the start.
