Sad I won’t be able to tweet from iOS by Apple® once Twitter shuts down its API 😔
this was peak iOS design 😤
@rileytestut it’s crazy to think it was built in the OS. I remember the API to access those account it, it was awful.
@dimillian TWTweetComposeViewController FTW 🙌
@rileytestut sometimes I boot my iPod Touch 4 and admire this UI beauty

@rileytestut

The Twitter & Facebook Cards were the best.

@rileytestut Would honestly love for skeuomorphic design to return
@rileytestut I’m always be fan of that era of design. So impressive and unique. It really make the products distinctive.
@rileytestut oh man!!! I remember those days 🙈
@rileytestut yes, but if you inadvertently pressed the home button your tweet was lost in timespace void
@tomn94 that’s a feature not a bug 🤪
@rileytestut the textures were so good 😩
@yefyef @rileytestut need to restore craft in this profession
@rileytestut I completely forgot that Twitter and Facebook used to have built in buttons for sharing in iOS. It was an interesting time.
@rileytestut This was the peak of making even people with excellent vision feel like they had impaired eyesight. It’s a blurry, low-contrast, soft-edged fetishistic mess!
@rileytestut I want to go to the dimension where they never left skeuomorphism behind. What would modern iOS be like if they’d just doubled down and refined.

@rileytestut "Gods I was strong then!"

@rileytestut I still use that linen pattern as my bacground on my MacBook Pro 16" M1 Max.
See the banner on my profile, which is a modified version of my background.
@rileytestut to this day apple.ch still use the light version of this design as its splash page
@rileytestut This and iOS 8 were peak Apple design imo
@rileytestut fr. fuck jony ive for ruining it!
@rileytestut Wouldn't it be dope to have an iOS on iOS emulator / simulator one day?
@rileytestut @film_girl The OG keyboard colors still look good.

@kocienda @film_girl someone should make a 3rd party keyboard in the style of the OG one 👀

*cough*Humane*cough*

@rileytestut bring back that keyboard.
Is it just me or have the touch targets changed in the past few years? Feel like I have way more typing errors than a few years ago.
@rileytestut back when buttons looked like buttons.
@GrantMeStrength and when the OS used real materials like linen and leather 😍
@rileytestut In my opinion, iOS 5 was peak “old-school” iOS. Not too much whimsy/felt/linen in the interface, and such a simple, joyful experience
@rileytestut @film_girl there were soooo many bars to show the signal strength
@rileytestut I was way too attached to that linen texture ❤️
@vns back when linen and leather was everywhere!!
