I've never seen a search box that couldn't actually handle input before, but Apple Music made it.

If I click in the search box and start typing, the box will lose focus at some random time and all my next keystrokes will count as play commands, usually pausing the music. If I come back to the search box, it happens again.

I know "text boxes" are cutting-edge technology that's barely 3 seconds old and developers are still learning to program them safely. Still, I expected more from a trillion-dollar company.



I have this text field thing happen with Apple Maps as well.

I use Apple Music and it's got all sorts of problems. "Hey Siri, play Chill Mix" "Sorry, I'm having trouble finding that in your library."

Chill Mix is generated from Apple Music based on what you play. I use it every morning except those days it just can't be found.


Well, the driverless car software will be much more solid. We hope?
