As much as I don’t like negative threads, there’s one thing in iOS that really irritates me, and I want to air it…

Pressing and holding the tab button in Safari to access tab groups, should have a haptic response.

Because it doesn’t, I often end up opening the tab view instead, so I have to huff a little, hit Done, then try again. I don’t know why it annoys me that it doesn’t because none of the other buttons in Safari do, but I feel like it should.

No, I have not contacted Tim Apple about this. Yes, I probably should.

    It made since when iPhones were small enough to be used with one hand.

    Now that they are all phablets, they introduced the double tap on the home button to slide the top half of the screen down. No idea if this shortcut exists for devices without a home button.

      It still exists, you swipe down on the bar at the bottom of the screen. You can also set up a feature called “Back Tap” and set a double or triple-tap on the back of the phone to trigger it or any number of other actions.
