iOS 18 Adds Pop-Out Bezel Animation When Pressing iPhone Buttons

[JordanCautious]

Hm. I'm kinda mixed on this. On one hand, it looks cool. But on the other, after 100 or so presses, would it be distracting? I'll have to try it out. It probably has a option to disable it I'm guessing though

Why older users?

Nothing against the elderly! Kids just generally have more time to keep up on trivial stuff.

Is it just me, or is it bulging inward rather than outward, as the article states?

Indeed it is…
I wanted to comment on that but thought I'd be written off as an old pedant! 😁

I agree that bugs should be fixed before these extras are added. When I attempt to paste, the word "paste" has been missing from the contextual menu for quite some time now (see below). I know the word "paste" belongs there, so it's not much of an issue for me, but I can imagine the frustration that iOS newbies might be experiencing.

Man Apple really seems to focus on some weird stuff....
I just want countless bugs fixed... is that too much to ask?

Countless? Really?? Are you just awash in bugs over there? On your day-one beta software? Sheesh.

Could be a bug.After all, it is an early beta.

 

[Steve Job's Cousin]

very ugly.

might be a you problem… i’ve never seen this bug tbh.

Only Apple can have this crazy attention to detail.

For example, Apple Pencil Pro having digital shadows is another mind-blowing thing that only Apple could think of.

Seems a bit far-fetched, details like that have been found in video games for years. Don't get me started on features android and windows has.

 

[ThomasJL]

so having the display pop out a bit when it's used would provide a useful visual indicator.

Why not go all the way with visual cues by bringing back skeuomorphic design and completely eliminating flat design?

Junk. Can they not with these little gimmicks.

Dude, it's beta 1. They have graphical misalignments all the time in early betas. Probably slight hardware differences between different iPhone models.

3.1T company. This is on the current flagship device.

Beta 1. Lol. Calm down.

3.1T company. I'm perfectly calm.

The bulge happens at the place along the volume bar which the volume is changed towards. So yes, this is attention to detail, no quotation marks required.

It's off-center which means that the skeuomorphism effect doesn't make physical sense. It should be pressed out at the exact corresponding place on the screen. There is no point in defending decisions that make no sense.

Yeah, do nothing. Please provide plain and as boring as possible UI. /s

But it makes sense. You just don‘t get it.

As a graphic designer, I find the attention to detail in Apple’s designs truly outstanding. It’s remarkable how they incorporate such meticulous elements without even mentioning them ... true high class.

Out of curiosity, how many here choose landscape for video/photos instead of portrait? I always use landscape.

 

[mikepro]

Can’t innovate anymore, my ass! 😂

Raleigh, NC is one of the best places on the planet so it's cool that it's featured here.

I use both. It depends on what I'm trying to capture.

Just wish there was an Easter egg

Press all side buttons at same time and get Craig Federighis hair simulation up on the screen. Completely rotatable and zoom in out… add special effects like highlights and ray tracing. Dark mode etc

 

[Regbial]

Wish the volume gauge didn't jiggle along with it... seems annoying.

 

[pksv]

But it makes sense. You just don‘t get it.

Oh yeah, of course! It's perfect, I'm just using it wr... I mean, I don't understand it.
But please then, explain it to me.

That would make too much sense.
