Please, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, allow us to disable this chapter skipping feature (the one where tapping left or right to bring up the scrubber, then double tapping the other direction because 100% of people want to skip that direction some unit time - 10 seconds by default). This ends up feeling random and is just vexing.
It is the worst feature added to any software, maybe ever in the history of computing. How many hours are wasted trying to figure out where one was in this video? How much power and network bandwidth is consumed fighting this feature that I’ve not seen a single comment online of anybody benefitting from ever.
This feature is adding to human suffering by wasting energy and damaging people psychologically. Go please, look online, and consider castigating the creator of this feature in the public square. And then take a good hard look at yourself for not stopping this evil from ever being added in the first place.
Yours aye, Sane People
I just checked the android app on an older device, so I’m not sure how up to date it is, but the feature doesn’t seem present there. So I can only verify it is present on the iOS official app.
But it has been there for many months now. And it usually appears as just an unexpected chapter skip.
You should consider switching to Android, where you can install non-shitty software.
I used android from the G1 to the OP7 and worked with several mods. I love it, but I changed eco systems a few years back for a few reasons. All told, I’m in general more pleased. But you make a fair point; one of the strongest, but I don’t think this one frustrating feature is strong enough to warrant a whole cloth switch.
