Beescrob

An attractive, professional, clean and intuitive design lakes this app a joy to use. It connects to last.fm like a dream, does what you expect it to do, and just works. This should be a five-star review, but for two problems: 1. In iPhone X models, the “now playing” display strip at the bottom of the screen sits in front of the SCROBBLE button, preventing you from scribbling—defeating the purpose of the app. It wasn’t a problem in earlier iPhone models but the moment I switched to an iPhone XS, the only two elements in the screen—SCROBBLE and Now Playing—moved to the bottom of the screen, overlapping each other. The only way to SCROBBLE is to stop playing iTunes and close it, then return to Beescrob. I figured the developer was surprised by the firm factor of iPhone Xn and would eventually release an update that addressed the problem, but it’s been two or three years and no fix. Possibly the developer doesn’t have a complete iPhone test suite? Happy to send screenshots. (I wouldn’t have posted this review if there was any other way to reach the developer.) 2. In iOS 13, the app’s Settings screen is off-White and the settings text labels are white. Can you read white on white? Of course not. Nobody can. This is so even when the OS is running in dark mode. You can see the settings switches but can’t read the labels so don’t know what they do. It’s like driving blind. These problems are frustrating enough that you end up needing to buy and use competitive developers’ scribblers, which are not as elegant but which are more usable. This app was designed by someone very talented who understands usability. I just wish they woke address these two problems.
