Re: Least favorite new feature

I wouldn't say it's my "least" favorite, but the Shortcuts app is not the easiest to figure out! :D

Re: Least favorite new feature

The swapping of the emoji key and the 123 key in the keyboard in landscape, especially on the iPad, is by far is the worst for me. I also liked having the control center in the recent apps screen on the iPad in iOS 11, though really I don't use the control panel all that much anyway. Anything else I will never use anyway (memoji, Animoji, can't think of anything else I don't like or don't care for at the moment.)

Re: Least favorite new feature

I am wondering if the Apple software is beginning to have too many features. Many of the features are no longer intuitive to use.

I’ve been tuning my shortcuts for a few days now but I can’t say it’s my least favorite I don’t have one.

Like all things shortcuts will become simpler as time goes by thru updates I’m sure

Shortcuts seems a bit naff at the moment.

Will be better if they can introduce more app integration ie ‘New Tweet’ and it opens right up to the compose tweet screen etc

I don’t like that Apple moved the icons on the top of my iPad Pro 10.5 I miss having the time in the center and I don’t like the new gestures for the iPad

Having to swipe down from the right to access the command center. I still keep trying to swipe up from the bottom.


Mine still swipes up from the bottom.

iPhone X series and iPad swipe down from the top right. iPhones with home buttons still swipe up from the bottom. You can't change it. (I liked it more on the iPad from the bottom with iOS 11, because you could also do it with a double-press of the home button to bring up the recent apps screen, where the control panel used to be.)

Me too. I sold my iPhone 6S so I have no idea what iOS 12 is like on it. My Air 2 isn't bad so far, I simply dislike the Control Center swiping.
