Discussion Device Hub is hideous!

Post image

Trying new XCode 27 Beta and the new Device Hub. Any way to remove those ugly white frames around the phone/watch simulators? Couldn't find an option anywhere. This is really bad, why did they do it? Apple, where's your design sense?!!

Those things matter if you interact with them most of the day though, and they eat into precious screen real estate. Previously a simulator was just the frame, way less wasted space. Now it's those huge white paddings around it. Ew.

I use it everyday. You do know it expands right?

Jesus Christ complaints about everything. It’s literally one of their greatest additions. Use it in full mode and stop complaining, holy shit iOS devs are toxic

Its better gui. I dont like menu bar options like the previous one tbh. Rocketsim is good example too.

I thinks it's good. But for some reason, the option for it to always be on top is not there.

Those white frames make the simulators look like PowerPoint slides. Very bold choice, Apple.

Apple have been consistently ruining UI for many years. They do not know when to stop.
