!dev related, kinda

Why did the devs think it was a good idea for the iPhone to have the flash go off as a notification, I feel like the person opposite me was having a strobe light show

If only there was some kind of LED light which would un-obtrusively notify the user...
This is another feature I think iOS should take out of Android's book

The same dev who decided that unlocking ones phone should be a multi step process. With graphs and a multiple choice question at the end.

It was originally intended as an accessibility enhancement for the hearing impaired. Idk why anyone else turns it on.

@silhoutte
I can understand the use for those with impaired hearing, same as doorbells that flash.

But I find it silly when the average user uses it, especially when a few times I've seen people take phone calls and the flash remains on, so they end up, for want of a better term, flashing people

Totally agree.
