I have truly enjoyed the public beta iOS 15 for weeks now, and new features such as direct text and UX refinement such as grouped notifications have made it a better experience than iOS 14. But week after week, new beta updates After a new update, I have made a nausea discovery: iOS 15 does not fix bugs that already exist in iOS for a decade.
Let me be a cover word by saying this is not some disruption of experiences or raw disaster telephone; This is a disturbance, malformations are so tame so that it has been kicked down each priority list because it appears, if the iPhone devs pay attention to it at all.
What am I talking about? Okay, this picture: You are chatting in the message application and you want to send a photo. You tap the action bar to open your photos and tap you want to send, which then appears in the draft window of your message. You press the send button, and the draft is lost. But photos are not sent. You repeat the process – open the photo gallery, tap the photo, press send – and still not sent.
Does this happen to you? Maybe, once? You can’t remember?
It is a dangerous genius of this bug, which I believe down, to only make occasional chaos before it is not active. Difficult to be caused by intentionally, and therefore cannot be reproduced. It remains from radar.
But this error occurs in the era of the least pillage, makes me embarrassing on the hook: I will really text text “you won’t believe this!” And then be prepared to send them photos drop jaws or timely memes, and then, I can’t. A bug attack! My friends laughed at my incompetence that looked! I was canceled!
Yes, okay, there are repairs. BUT.
Now, there is a type of repair – just close the message application manually and open again. POOF, the photo loads and sends as usual. But even the process can take precious seconds the right window eclipse to send funny photos. I cursed bugs, which clearly lay down waiting, and regretted all the laughter that I failed to bring to this world.
Sometimes I will go for months without having a bug, and I will wonder – do I imagine all this? Have I really can’t send photos? Maybe I was wrong to remember to cover up to remember late that I had a perfect photo shoot in an argument, visual l’esprit d’escalier. Maybe my brain knew misstead and had found a digital Gremlin who had it for me occasionally.
But then it happened again, and I look like Doofus who didn’t know how to send a simple photo. Again, this is far from disabled disabled, and I really enjoy using it 99.99% of the time. I really dig iOS 15, and the new features are attractive.
However, I can’t not ask, humbly, for Apple to fix this. Maybe it’s small, but I have seen it seems since I got the iPhone 4 in 2010. Like the saying goes, “It’s not a mountain in front that wears it – it is a grain of sand in your shoes.” Or misfortune to have the perfect photo to be sent and there is no way to send it (for a few seconds).
