> "The only downside of not using shiny but questionable new features is that your app won't get featured in the App Store." This is a pretty huge downside. The App Store is a huge mess - there is effectively no web frontend for it, it's tied deeply into a desktop application, and it's obtuse. This makes marketing nigh impossible and results in Apple having an enormous, and disproportionate, ability to pick winners and losers. Being featured is a Big Deal(tm). |

I was a little shocked when the switched to the 'card UI.' On a mobile device where there is very little real estate, they completely nerfed the amount of app information on the discover screens. Added so much physical effort and time it takes for the user to peruse a like number of apps compared to the former UI.
