There's a big difference between intentionally installing a modification on your device and having it installed by default, though. iOS's popularity is largely due to its intuitive UI.
- saurik 13y agoI can only imagine you missed my parenthetical? Like, reading your comment, one would presume that rather than saying "that's not just the design of some crazy designer, that's actually a concrete implementation that people like, but yeah: it doesn't make sense" I had said "no, you are wrong: Apple should do this, because you are totally wrong and a vast majority of people actually like it"... it isn't even "the most popular thing in the world of jailbreaking" or anything (although it is somewhat unreasonably popular for what it is ;P).
- mwilcox 13y agoRereading your comment, I did kind of skim past that bit, sorry. I was mostly referring to the little bit at the end in regards to 'lots of people really liking' it.
- joshuamerrill 13y ago> iOS's popularity is largely due to its intuitive UI. I think that's true, which is why I'm so interested in iOS 7. IMHO, iOS has become much less intuitive—where I once found that ordinary users could understand and use most of the functions of the device, I find that no longer the case. For example, I find it unintuitive that the Home button does different things depending on how many times it's tapped, or for how long. The notification center gives no indication that it exists at all. The multitasking tray must be swiped left—twice—to reveal a volume control. Etc, etc.
