Poor usability of camera apps draws criticism from IT users

Original: Quite true - just recently I tried to get access to some cams via mobile apps - horrible experience. What about somebody

A developer writing about the state of consumer technology says he was left embarrassed by how hard it was to access cameras through mobile apps, calling the experience horrible and wondering how people outside the IT industry cope. The post links to a blog essay on being embarrassed by tech and has sparked agreement about declining usability standards in everyday software.

Why now: It taps into a widely shared frustration that consumer apps and devices have become harder to use, even for tech professionals.
