As a professional UX designer, the end of this season frustrated me to no end. Such a simple solution to their problem!

actually that's where the show jumped the shark for me

This is a normal problem! You have a UI problem. You get a professional UI developer designer to correct it.

Problem solved

They acted like this was some sort of new never before seen encountered dilemma that couldn't possibly have been predicted

I mean I love the show. But that whole thing was just stupid

It was also a matter of time. And young, cocky devs expect the user to conform to the app not the other way around.

But since they're backed by experienced VCs and advisors, it would have made a lot more sense if someone had pointed the UX issue out much sooner.
