There is no good argument for selection states that are anything but instantly obvious. Whoever designed this doesn’t use the app.

@gruber Don't forget Apple TV's "this item is 0.03% bigger because it is selected right now" system. Utterly baffling how function falls to form in Apple UI so often.

@stebo @gruber The number of times I moved away from the selected item to try to determine what was selected in Apple tvOS is… many.

@MichaelPorter @stebo Turn on the tvOS Accessibility setting for prominent selections. You’ll never go back. I keep forgetting it’s not the default.
