That doesn’t mean that we should just adopt any nonsense that Google comes up with.
Also autofocus on page load is a terrible idea on iOS as it automatically brings up the keyboard.
No one wants to switch between web pages and suddenly have to wait for the keyboard to appear each time on page load.
- bouncing 3y agoAndroid has handled this fine since approximately forever. It focuses the element, but doesn't necessarily bring up the keyboard until you tap it.
- threeseed 3y agoPretty poor UX. Expectation on iOS is that anything that is focused you should be able to type into.
- hasanhaja 3y ago> That doesn’t mean that we should just adopt any nonsense that Google comes up with. That's a fair statement. Conversely, why should we put up with Apple stifling the web platform? Especially when there's strong evidence to show this is motivated primarily by profit rather than the user experience [1][2].
