Even now, hearing about this app I think "Wow! That's so novel and cool! (<i>magical</i>, even)". I've said it before, but I dearly miss the creativity people had in the first few years of iOS. We have much better devices now; we should have <i>better</i> apps! I should be so desensitized by how <i>interesting</i> the new apps are that a skeuomorphic guitar tuner sounds banal and obvious! Instead today's apps are boring. They've been reduced to nothing but feeds to scroll through, clients for online services, and crappy games.<p>What in the world happened?<p>Edit: Some people are mentioning the quality productivity apps available, particularly on the iPad Pro. I didn't mean to suggest there aren't quality apps, I meant to suggest there aren't <i>interesting</i> apps that turn these devices into wondrous multi-tools. Apps that use the sensors in novel ways to interface with the real world; that make your phone or tablet more of a <i>device</i> and less of a <i>screen</i>.<p>I also want to say I didn't mean to imply that there are no quality games on mobile; it's just hard for them to survive (Apple Arcade is an interesting workaround for this), and also games in general just usually don't have the kind of novelty I'm talking about here.
