I literally just had a dream about this. Where I needed to urgently send a message, but I kept messing up the text. Weird. At least now, I know I'm not just fat fingering it.

I have a frequently reoccurring dream (nightmare scenario) that I'm somewhere unpleasant where I don't want to be, and need to leave right away, so I try to order an Uber on my iPhone, but the app is just so fucking hard to use and figure out, with all the important commands hidden so that the user interface is clean and sleek and beautiful and minimalistic without any visible scrollbars or labeled buttons or visual affordances, so much that I can't even use it, and I'm trapped in some horrible place in a nightmare I can't get away from, desperately fumbling with my iPhone.

I think it's a manifestation with my pain and disgust with Alan Dye's vain cosmetic approach to user interface design.

Now maybe my nightmares will shift to being trapped in the Facebook user interface, now that Alan Dye is at Meta. They totally deserve him, and I hope he destroys Facebook once and for all.

I have this exact same dream. Can’t type the correct address to save my life, and the app keeps “helpfully” steering me towards options I don’t want.

I have tried to set a "lucid dream recognition breakpoint" on my iPhone's user interface being impossible to use, but I keep hitting it in real life that I can't wake up from, and I keep getting terrorized by it in dreams without recognizing it.

Sigh.

The only way out of this insipid inception is for Apple to get their shit together and actually fix their UI, but that's never going to happen.
