As much as I don’t like negative threads, there’s one thing in iOS that really irritates me, and I want to air it…

Pressing and holding the tab button in Safari to access tab groups, should have a haptic response.

Because it doesn’t, I often end up opening the tab view instead, so I have to huff a little, hit Done, then try again. I don’t know why it annoys me that it doesn’t because none of the other buttons in Safari do, but I feel like it should.

No, I have not contacted Tim Apple about this. Yes, I probably should.

I was going to mention this if nobody else had. Easily the thing that makes me angriest most frequently on my iPhone is its behavior when trying to type out and edit longer comments. I honestly don’t know what’s going on when it starts acting funky, but the more time I spend, the weirder it gets. Sometimes I’ll try to place the cursor and it will select a word on a completely different line (it just happened when typing this up that I selected a word in the latest line of this comment and it selected the very first “I” at the top and started overwriting it). Sometimes when I try to change or retype a word, autocorrect suggests the new word mashed together with the old word. When a comment gets too long, the screen bumps up to the top of the page after every new word is added so it’s almost impossible to see what I’m typing. I don’t know if it’s the iPhone, the browser, or the webpage, but it’s a terrible experience.

Then sometimes it’s perfectly fine.
