As we know, in iOS 17.2 a new app, Journal, became part of the operating system All the power of analyzing the phone's contents is directed at helping the user reflect on some lived experience. We do not find reflection in ourselves; we find interface solutions. Among them there is nothing especially interesting. And there were hopes for new UI solutions! A neatly tailored interface from native, existing system elements. Like the work of interns: step right, step left - out into the cold, not an Apple badge and lunches at Infinite Loop. What was found: - Gradient. Let us call it branded - Progressive blur - An attempt to create a one-screen, continuous continuity app - content unfolds right in the feed - Cute animation of the pin rocking when opening a location card - Reuse of all system solutions. Try making your app like that, without inventing new solutions, without forcing teams to create and lay out new components 😏 What is interesting: Journal lets you configure notifications by days of the week. Look, you can tap it right in settings. This seems like a new solution. Need to do this in our place too. Like: want only notifications about new releases, which are on Thursdays - please.
