I wasn’t sure if I’d really like #notchlife and I’m still not so sure I do but I do however find it INCREDIBLY ANNOYING when apps do not support said notch. Anyone else feel this way?

Merry Christmas all, btw

I thought it would bother me but it don't. I have used my 10S max over a month and have no issues with the notch at all

That depends on what you mean by support. Apple has made it clear in guidelines that developers are supposed to treat the notch as if it doesn’t exist.

You know the only time I think about the "Notch" is when someone every few months brings it up and tries to make it relevant again.

The notch really doesn’t me when I had the iPhone X. I’m use to it and I’m using my iPhone XR.

I reason that the notch has a purpose. It doesn’t bother me one bit. It bothers me far less than all the other gimmicky notches and paper punch holes that are prominent features with the competition! 🤪

Embrace the Notch it’s really not bad seeing as Apple put the two corners to good use

I never really look at the top of the screen, most of the time my focus is in the middle, so the notch never bothers me.

I rarely ever notice it. It soon starts to blend into everything else and you only really notice it when something draws your attention right to it directly. It looks a lot better and is much more well incorporated than the notches on a lot of other phones.

Well I will say this, the notch only really gets in the way of video and I don’t like the aspect ratio of the screens. However, what I came to here to say this time is that after looking at my sisters iPhone 8, I really miss having all that information available in the status bar.
