Bugs. Bugs. Bugs.

This is anything but a well written product. I must reboot my machine from one to three times a day as the beachball spins incessantly. Sometimes it recovers after ten minutes, sometimes not. With each release I await more broken pieces and it just shouldn’t be so. Language-wise what do you mean I have to add a @Synthesize? Really?!?!?! You know what’s required and it’s just a waste of a developers time. Dragging on the IB screen from a controls left side causes the entire container to move, the solution for which is to drag from the right side and then move the control back into place. Embedding a container view in a view controller causes the container view to wind up somewhere north on the IB screen. Really?!?!?! Didn’t anyone try loading each control before releasing the product? Seriously, you all need to test and test and start getting your reputation back as this is a fiasco.

Update Nov 24, 2016 — Microsoft will bring their Developer Studio to OS X. Hopefully native apps will be able to be written, or the Xmarian tools will be improved. And hopefully Apple won’t make it too difficult for Microsoft/Xamarian to play in their space. What a piece of crap, this Xcode.
