I’m confused, are you referring to a specific app that doesn’t have a back button or do you literally want the iPad itself to have a back button?

I literally want a back button on the iPad.

The YouTube app on iOS is a perfect example. Half the time the back button is not available, or at least not immediately obvious, so when I want to go back to the list of videos from a currently playing video, it’s either not possible or a pain in the ass. On Android all I have to do is hit the back button on the phone. It doesn’t matter if the Android app has a back button or not because you can just consistently use the phone’s back button.

That’s the YouTube app’s fault for not understanding standard iOS conventions.

You’re missing the point. On Android it doesn’t matter.

I guess I have to take back my declaration of the end of the conversation.

Even if it doesn’t matter on Android, the system on Android is broken.

I’ve said the reason before. I’ll even quote it here, so that you don’t have to do any dreadful work:

The fact that the iPad does not have a back button is the stupidest thing ever.

The back button has a fundamental flaw: You don’t know what you’re going back to. It could be anything. That’s user hostile behavior.

The way iOS handles this is better, and gives more clarity. You understand exactly what’s going on when you click a back button. That’s better for the user, and avoids confusion. If a user is constantly confused by a paradigm, they’re more likely to stop using it.

Interesting. As an iPhone user I never even considered a back button on the device itself (and don’t think ever needed it).

I’ve never used an iPad but I assume things are the same - swiping right typically is equivalent to going back. Can’t speak for the YouTube app because I don’t have it (I just go through safari).

I mean they moved their IP to Ireland to escape American business tax laws, said they’d never move back unless we dropped our corporate tax to some ridiculously low rate, and now they’re saying that they don’t have to pay Ireland because their country isn’t Irish.

Pretty straightforward.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

What about the part where Windows is to blame?

HOW ABOUT THAT, MR. FUNG?!?!

The only part of this post that is accurate is “addition” and “joke.”
