The UI for Apple Music is frustrating as hell since updating to 26.x. The search function alone needs a human sacrifice.
Want to delete a song? Open the menu then, even though there’s ample screen space, scroll down the truncated menu to find delete well below more useless options. Why.
Want to scroll to the middle of a song? Hold up! The ‘lossless’ info is right there and you always hit that instead. Again, plenty of space to move that down and out of the way.
If anyone at Apple used Apple Music they would know all of this already.
Then there’s the keyboard in general. I spend so much time fixing typos it’s crazy. Someone had a video on YouTube showing that, even though he was typing correctly, IOS was messing up. Horrible experience!
Apple Music got extremely slow for me in (atypical, granted) situations that used to be perfectly snappy. I keep recordings of a radio show in my Music library, with the whole series tagged as a single album, each "episode" as a separate disc, and each half of the episode as its own track. This makes it easy to scroll through, browsing to pick what I want to listen to. But now with 26 Music has been chugging whenever I open the album - it takes ~20 seconds before it starts responding smoothly again. I'll concede that having 1000+ discs within a single album isn't a normal use-case, but this has worked properly for the last decade before they screwed it up.
Search in general on all redesigned Apple apps is like solving a puzzle to figure out where it is. In some apps you have to be on a specific page and then scroll up to magically make it pop out. So intuitive...
