Apple's "services" apps–App Store, Music, Podcasts, TV–are the worst apps on the platform, period. They're so awful that I cannot understand how a sane developer could ship something like that.

Music (on iOS) has become so obtuse to use.

To enable/disable shuffle after selecting a song, you must tap a bar near the bottom (which gives no visual indication that it expands); once expanded, you must then tap an unlabelled button with a “list” icon. This will show your upcoming queue, but also holds the control for shuffle and repeat. These are also unlabelled, but at least the icons are fairly unmistakable.

Interestingly enough, Eddy Cue's org consistently puts out the crappiest software while operating with the biggest ego (internally).

Source? I know the apps are horrible but I haven’t seen much to make it seem like he’s specifically more full of ego.

My personal opinion as an engineering manager who worked closely with that org for years.

May I add — shudder — Books.app: http://macos-design-review.com/books.html

Wow. Thank you for this!

My recent gripe is the Recent list: https://grumpy.website/post/0Spuij-7C

That was fun to look at, but I see you also have an issue with UI/UX on your website: you cannot easily reach the footer when scrolling down because of that infinity scroll.

It's a joke by the creator of the website :)

I see. A quite ironic approach. I like it.

Edit: I feel kind of stupid of thinking everyone is stupid on the internet except me.

Hint: there's a handy icon in the top header (looks like "refresh") that allows to easily access the footer.
