Super nitpicky. The huge improvement in this picker is that it's inline. The previous one was modal. That's fantastic.

Who gives a shit you can't drag from below "PM" to scroll up? That's the worst you can say?

As for the view hierarchy, cool viz but is it actually slow on old devices? I doubt it. Even an old GPU should handle those transforms no problem since they're the only thing animating.



Yeah, who gives a shit about usability when designing UI!?


You've got to be kidding. Going from modal to inline is a huge leap forward in usability.


It's potentially a leap forward, if it's done right. This wasn't done right - it's harder to use than the old version.


>huge leap forward in usability.

"huge leap" is quite the exaggeration given that such UI ideas well understood and are decades old. Most average programmers could create a similar iOS control over a lazy weekend.


Wasn't it up to the developer? I believe you could do the old one inline too if you wanted.
