Yep. Discovered this one today. Completely ridiculous.
If anyone wants evidence that iOS 7 was rushed, all they need to do is see things like that (and the parent post). All this is fixable though, rather than something endemic in the design of iOS 7, so I'm hopeful it'll get fixed soon enough.
- SEMW 13y agoWe know it was rushed, and we know why. Scott Forstall (the architect of iOS 1-6) was fired, and Jonathan Ive promoted to VP of Design, on 29th October 2012, 11 months ago. 11 months -- really 7 months, as it had to be mostly done in time for the WWDC demo -- is an astonishingly short length of time to do a ground-up UX redesign of an OS. The only way it's possible is to parallelise the design process to some extent, which makes consistency issues inevitable.
- Osmium 13y agoCompletely agreed – regardless of the amount of money at your disposal, I can't believe they managed it in 7 months. It really is crazy.
