It’s often the little bugs that never get fixed that drive us nuts. Apple and MS alike are guilty of this. For example, in Apple Photos, you cannot delete an inadvertently named face. If I already have an identified face “Kathy” in a lot of photos and then accidentally mistype and identify a face as “Katty,” there is no way to delete “Katty” from the Faces database. The next time I go to identify Kathy in a photo and type “Kat,” I’m going to see (and forever see) “Katty “ in the list.
Also, a few revs back, they added a bug where the “x” is missing on many automatically identified faces so there is no way to remove that misidentified person. This happens a lot if you take a picture of your kid in a crowd and the software thinks you want to identify and name every single kid in the pic. There is no “x” on one-third of the faces. So your collection of faces includes hundreds of people you don’t know. It will include faces from statues, paintings, and photographs as well and you are stuck with them forever.
The web is FULL of complaints by people about these two serious bugs, but Apple never addresses them.
Apple — quit adding new whiz-bang features and fix the damn core functionality! (Like,that will ever happen)
Every upgrade from Apple just finds more ways to irritate me.
Top of my bloatware list is iTunes. It used to be I’d click on an audio file and it would just play (imagine that!). Now, it very often takes the operating system 10 seconds or more to figure out that I mean “stop playing THIS song and play THAT song instead.” Why? I have no idea. Same slow-as-molasses behavior with renaming files.
And... by the way, the upgrade isn’t showing up when I access the app store. Anyone else seeing it?
