Apple specifically says not to do this in their updated Human Interface Guidelines.

If you use Safari to view a web page in landscape mode, is the majority of the left edge of the page just chopped off?

Or did they make an exception for that, since most webpages are not specially designed for each and every device that Apple makes?

This is a weird UI problem and I'm looking forward to seeing how Apple addresses it in each of the built-in apps.

Wow that's messed up. I didn't realize it extended beyond video.

On the plus side it's only gonna be an easy software upgrade to fox this for video and the web although it remains to be seen whether apple will accept they're wrong.

Done. I’m out. I’ve bought every top level upgrade for the last 10 years of upgrade cycles. But now I am out. No new “rose gold” status for me. :(

No, the text stays in the center portion only. The guidelines say that content covers the screen in landscape unless it’s text, in which case it’s inset.

So those stupid share icons on the side of news sites are going to be completely inaccessible?

What part of the guidelines are you referring to? [1] says "Adhere to the safe area and layout margins defined by UIKit", and the graphics show a "safe area" which excludes the notch at the top.

It’s part of the new WWDC videos they posted today. Let me see if I can find a link to them.

Just when I thought we had finally kissed "Title-Safe Area" goodbye...

Apple is the worst about not following their own Human Interface Guidelines.

Do you have an example of where they don’t follow their guidelines? In my experience they’re pretty good about it; it’s Google that can’t get it together and follow Material Design or whatever their new guide is.

The iTunes app is a notorious example.

Is Apple a reasonable developer for the built-in media apps and Safari full screen video?

The aspect ratio of the screen is wider than 16:9, so full-screen 16:9 video will be boxed in on the other dimension first.

Good luck getting your app rejected.
