Apple’s Orientation Lock UX Blunder
I love my iPad. I think Apple has put together a fantastic device, and if it had a complete web experience (aka Flash Player), it would be nearly perfect.
I think Apple could be hailed as the king of user experience (UX). With the release of iOS 4.2, Apple continued to improve the device. The addition of folders, multitasking and quick access to display brightness and volume were welcome additions. Apple did however make one huge blunder in their upgrade to iOS 4.2 – the changing of the toggle switch on the right side of the iPad from ‘orientation lock’ to a ‘system mute switch’ is completely wrong.
