Ratings and Reviews
Collection View
Please bring back the collection view layout for my Favourites on iPad 🙏🏻 It’s feels really cramped now when I’m browsing for the next video I’d like to watch.
Otherwise this new update is 5 ⭐️
Content inside the app is world class as always 🙌🏻
It’s buggy
Seems ironic that the official app for the world’s biggest iOS developer conference has serious bugs - but it does.
I kick off a download, then put the app in the background and lock my phone, next time I open the app it crashes on startup. I can open it if I retry, but now my in-progress downloads fail (I get an Alert complaining about files and directories) and have to be restarted. This has happened a couple of times.
There is one video now that fails whenever I try to download it (and I have plenty of free storage).
Also usability could be better - there are no filters, only a tableview tree structure, which means if I want to filter by more than one category I have to use the search bar.
On the whole it’s a pretty good app, so perhaps it’s unfair to focus on the negatives - but really the WWDC app, of all apps, should be a showcase for how to do it right.
Needs speed control
For the most part the app does what it needs to do, but is really needs to playback speed control.
Anything that has educational videos needs to allow at least 1.5x and 2x playback speeds. Without they generally become unusable for people that are use to it, it is to slow to keep focus. WWDC videos often slower than most because they can feature a marketing prevention pacing, and given the nature of content need to repeat information that may already be known by a large part of the audience (or at least familiar enough to make absorbing very quick).
As it stands without I find the app unusable, and instead download and playback on a dedicated video app; with the odd livestream exception.
