There also seems to an element of elitism among Apple fanboys, thinking their design is the only one that matters.
"Android users obviously picked their device for other reasons than design, so it doesn't have to look as good."
- sbuk 13y ago>..."element of elitism among Apple fanboys," Let's not use pejoratives. While we are at it, let's not project our own assumptions as points of fact.
- nysv 13y agoYou are right, I have but a little anecdotal evidence. In my experience there does exists a group of designers who view Apple to be the gospel of UI design, which can sometimes lead to them ignoring other schools of thought.
- tomelders 13y agoSo if I've got this right... It's those nasty lazy designerses fault, and has nothing to do with Androids colossal shortcomings either as a platform to develop for, or to earn a living from?
- nysv 13y agoNo. And I said, these designers are a minority. Android is definitely hard to get "right" design-wise, but it can be done. But if all you are trying to do is make it look like iOS, you are on the wrong track. Monetization issues are a separate problem as far as I can see. While money can shift priorities, but shouldn't affect design.
