I use many apple products and really enjoy their design. Yet, some of the software products are truly annoying. Examples are Safari browser on Mac and Apple maps on IPhone. Especially Safari on Mac is just trash. What do ya’all think ?

    My issue is more with how buggy their SW has gotten over the past few years; definitely seems like they care more about hitting deadlines and pushing out quantity as opposed to guaranteeing quality

      Yea I’m not surprised by it, just disappointed since Apple used to be a leader in quality from an outsiders perspective

      The irony was that 2018 was supposed to be a release focused on quality and then there’s still a shit ton of notable bugs

    What’s bad about Safari on Mac? I love it. It has the best auto fill (e.g contacts, passwords, credit cards), syncs tabs well with iOS, great search autocomplete, Reader mode, Offline Reading List, minimalistic UI that is most fitting for MacOS, lots of anti tracking/fingerprinting technology, and is generally pretty snappy for me.

      I literally grow rage inside when my mouse ever so lightly caresses the left side of the screen then a huge sidebar drawer slides out to take up half my fucking screen.
      And to make things worse is there is just the right amount of delay that I’ve already moved my hands back to my keyboard away from my trackpad/mouse.
      There’s no way to turn it off. I have never once ever used the damn thing and I hate it with a passion.

      Also the lack the extensions. Like the new tab screen with favorites. I can’t customize it like I can with chrome. But that’s apple, no customizations. I just want to change the icon size and supply my own thumbnails for the sites.

  • My opinion fwiw. Apple is not a software company its a design company.

    The only good software they ever built was macos 15 yrs ago and thats just because it came from bsd and there s no other commercial unix system competitor.

    Everything else is just a nice UI with mediocre functionality. Safari? Next. Facetime? Next. Apple Maps? Next.
