The animation in mail.app when you hit Edit is unbelievably slow. You can see the text actually stretch out, anyone else seeing this? For reference I am on a 6S:

I use Camera.app for 99% of everything I do on the phone. If I think I'll want RAW (or in this case, DNG), I use the Lightroom app because I have an Adobe subscription for my big boy camera so it's an obvious choice.

Seriously, you’re just creating busywork for no benefit;

-There are no apps in the easily reachable area in the bottom half of the screen.

-You waste time putting things into folders, when it’s faster to search.

You probably do this with emails too, rather than just searching, right?

A downward swipe then type in the first few characters of the app you want is way faster than digging through folders.

It also monitors apps you search for a lot, so if it shows up there it's a good candidate for a place on the home screen.

The only camera app worth using besides the default one is Horizon because you can shoot video in portrait mode and it formats it as landscape.

It really only became useful when iPhones got 4k because otherwise you were losing too much image quality. It can crop to 1080p now I think. So that's good, but I still always forget to use it and just stick with camera.app.

The apps I use most are in the dock. I just hate scrolling through spaces which are much more efficiently organised into folders. Two thumb hits and I’m where I want to be.

People who have a poo poo ton of folders in their inbox and then some insane rule system to route them drive me mad. Learn Outlook search modifiers ffs. I can find an email quicker by typing “from: xyz hasattachment:yes” faster than somebody pissing around in folders.

I downloaded just fine over wifi several hours ago when the download link was posted in this thread.

It reminds me a lot of Zune/early Windows Phone UI. Which evokes a number of feelings, considering Windows Phone started dying a gruesome death from its inception.

Tried taking some pics in the new HEIC format, wow, quite a bit of space savings for relatively detailed pics. They won't load in Preview on El Capitan or Sierra, duh.

Tried taking some movies in 4K, also pretty good, but the movies are encoded in H.265 which won't play in QuickTime Player.

Lmao. I’m literally running a lovely old Mac that is better spec’d than anything they sell atm and I’m in the same boat. Twin 3.46GHz Xeons and a 980Ti and somehow it’s incapable of hardware decoding H265.

Oh, Microsoft cares about consistent UI's. They just change what that UI is supposed to be every 60 days and all their divisions spend the next two years trying to catch up to it.

Smells like a hot-rodded Mac Pro. BTW forgot to mention I could play the h.265 MOV's in Movist, VLC, and Eltima Player, but at staggeringly slow speeds on non-High Sierra Macs.

I really like the Apple Musication of the UI and yet I find Apple Music to be annoying and cluttered. I especially like the big Messages header at the top.

And I love the gently caress out of the new Command Center. If it had a dedicated AirPod toggle then it would be perfect. And I know I can select audio from what’s playing, but it’d be easier to just push a button to make this device your audio source.

Does the control center remote only work for those new fat Apple TVs? My Apple TV isn't showing up and I'm wondering if that's why. I can still use the regular Remote app just fine, so I'm assuming my wifi/network stuff is all set up correctly.
