    Apple and this counter intuitive piece of shit UI

    was standing in a gas station for like 15 minutes trying to figure it out, finally had to look up how it worked.

    Then to prove I wasn't so retarded, I gave it to 3 other people and they did the exact same thing I was trying to do.

    • User error*grafician
    • 15 minutes before double clicking the side button? That's the same double click you use to pull up the wallet too. :/monospaced
    • What? That’s how you bring up the wallet? FFS lol_niko
    • What's in your wallet?utopian
    • Looks like it’s time to top up your Dunkin card.Chimp
    • Lol not my wallet_niko
    • yes, double click brings up the wallet ...monospaced
    • how do you double click on a touch device?uan
    • the idea is protection from random paying...it's like those lighters kids can't figure out.uan
    • Lol yeah, I’ve been using it forever, usually I open the wallet or go near the terminal and wallet automatically pops up. I guess they changed it for security_niko
    • But that doesn’t excuse their terrible functionality. I felt like zoolander figuring out computer tapping double tapping and trying to swipe that little bar lol_niko
    • You're an idiot.trondlandvik
    • Double clicking that button does nothing on my iPhonenb
    • Lol trandlanvik probably but not as idiotic as a trillion dollar company if that’s the best they can come up with. “Double click SIDE BUTTON to pay would fix it_niko
    • "Double clicking that button does nothing on my iPhone" You have to enable that. I was asked to by iOS at some point and declined.Gucci
    • I totally agree with this, all of a sudden, the power button has a new function. Took me ages to realise what I was /actually/ supposed to do the first timekalkal
    • fruitlessly tapping at the screen like WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS POS?! Terrible UX design.kalkal
    • I tried to swipe too. Granted it's so obvious now but where else does an app require to press one of the few physical buttons on your device? NEVER!kalkal
    • Exactly. Ridiculous._niko
    • Perhaps it's a bit opaque, but in their defence, it does sound like a good way to prevent inadvertant or doubled payments.Nairn
    • As already stated, it's a good function communicated very poorly and would be an easy fix.kalkal
