Basic UI failure when submitting developer feedback.
The overall process for participating in a TestFlight beta is fine, but the TestFlight app itself has a pretty glaring, amateur UI issue when submitting feedback to the developer - as you type into the modal feedback box, if your finger brushes the area outside of the box even briefly, or if you put your device down and then pick it back up, the modal dialog is closed and everything you’ve typed is discarded without recourse. It’s nearly 2025, I expect better (especially from Apple) than having to go back to the old world of “type something up in a basic text editor and then copy-paste it into the form to avoid losing everything you’ve typed”.
To make matters worse, the “submit” button on the feedback doesn’t generate any visible confirmation you’ve actually submitted anything, it just closes the dialog, same as if you had cancelled the submission by touching outside the dialog. Given how close the submit button is to the edge of the “window”, this is also pretty ridiculous.
