Spotify is wonderful but it could take a few tips from iTunes. Here’s one for free. The proximity of the search bar to the extremities of the app means that double clicking just a few pixels north of it can result in the app minimising itself. Why is this a problem? Because double clicking on the search bar is a quick way to select all the text in the field ready to delete it. iTunes gets around this by giving the search bar that little bit more breathing room. UPDATE: The latest version of Spotify has rectified this. I’d like to think they read my blog, but it’s probably another victory for common sense.
