Good user experience is when you make people download an app and create an account before they can get the thing that they actually want. That way you can delight users with the smooth animations and refined typography of the app.

Stuff like this making me appreciate the humble water fountain with a bottle refill space. You know the ones that also count how many plastic bottles have been saved by just using that one fountain.

My favorite thing is that apps that are required to do anything are only ever on one or two app stores. I couldn’t order in some restaurants in the US (even to eat in!) bc they require a US-only app and a US phone number. I love too live in the future! (It’s the same in Sweden and a huge PITA.)
