Update Menu Bar to match Apple's UX Conventions

Closed this issue · 3 comments

The current menu bar in 1.3 is sorted in the following order and labels Search rather than using the standardized search icon:

But this unfortunately doesn't match Apple's own UX conventions. Below are taken from Books and the App Store. As you can see, they include search at the end, and rather than label it, they use the standardized "search" icon available in SF Symbols.

To make Swiftfin a better fit into Apple's ecosystem, please consider adopting the same UX conventions.

Moreover, rather than labeling the first most screen "Home", using the terminology "Library" may be a stronger fit as that best describes the screen's contents.

Thank you for your consideration.

Considering duplicate with #1034, which would move to (closer) to using the updated tab bars.

@LePips is the poor performance on grid views also connected? Scrolling thru the movie posters is extremely jittery which is not found in apps like Infuse or Apple’s own Apple TV app. I was going to file a separate PR but if they are related, won’t bother.

No.
