Before if you wanted the lyrics, you'd tap on the CD art in the first picture and they'd pop up. Now you're required to scroll down to look at it. This can get annoying because if I want to rewind, I then have to scroll back up, pull the song back about ten seconds, and then immediately try to go back down and find my place. It's particularly problematic when I'm doing listening comprehension exercises on my phone because god knows I need to relisten every ten seconds to fully comprehend all the sounds coming out of their mouths. I don't know why Apple didn't just keep the lyrics there with all of the controls because it's easier to use if all of the functions and data is on the screen at the same time. It's not like the lyrics were fucking up the aesthetic since you had to tap the CD art anyway to get it.
(Also for some reason the lyrics for half of my songs aren't uploading, even though they were fine in the previous iOS.)
All of these gripes I make are minute in the grand scheme of things, but it just pisses me off that Apple is shown as a paragon of good design when I, some idiot in her basement who majored in Medieval History, can identify immediate problems with their layout and how to fix them. What did these people learn in college? What are they being paid for? How are they messing this shit up?
