Mightaswell posted:hahahaha "there isn't a labeled back button no one told me to swipe right or double tap home bloo bloo bloo" i never understood the confusion over not having a dedicated back button the back button is in the same place, top left, whenever it makes sense to have a back button. this is preserved through interface guidelines and the app review process, but because there isn't a technical solution to force a back button to always be visible regardless of if it makes sense, it breaks the techies' brains somehow

normal users don't need to know how to double-tap home to get to the program switcher on your apple device because on ios multitasking works to the point where you don't need to forcequit apps or risk one of them mysteriously consuming your battery, unlike on android devices. i know that to an android user that might seem like an impossibility but it's the truth

lol that's wrong as gently caress. you have to kill apps in ios all the time cause ios devices have no ram. normal people just deal with poo poo not working instead of figuring out how to kill stuff.

i've only had to force quit buggy apps, nothing to do with ios. and that was only to use them again, not because they were hosing the rest of the system.
