One app "with simple default choice and advanced options" effectively *is* two apps, uncomfortably shoehorned into one UI. You get all the disadvantages of complexity with none of the benefits of simplicity. This is why it's a model most apps have moved away from.OK, I lied---I will respond with one more post. You'd be right if it really was two apps, shoehorned---but I really think this case wants to be one software installation UI with several search selectors, just like apper, which actually has a 'graphical/non-graphical' search selector. Use the 💻 glyph at low-res as a screenshot/logo, to show our disdain for older apps, if we must. Surely you agree that it's possible to overdo such app specialization; my favorite example of such specious differentiation is dedicated droid/ios apps for every website (reddit/slashdot/whatever). |
