I thought bubble loved small icons

What is up with this new look?

Why such large buttons? It is hard to discern which is the app, or another app or which one do I press to just open the app?

With all the small icon additions to the UI of bubble over past 12 months, why are they changing it up now to be large buttons…the create mobile app should be a little bit less in your face and seen as the button to press. :scream:

But as always with UI updates we now need to click more times to do the same thing!! Yes! That is a win.

my hunch - multiple dev teams working on different features of the app without a clear direction for overall app style and logic decisions

there’s so many things in bubble that make me go “wait that’s not how they did it over there, why is it different here - oh it’s just bubble with no rhyme of reason”

I’m sure there are a lot of devs working on these rollouts so it must be hard to keep everyone lined up - but a final QA would be nice to ensure consistency across features. All these little “that’s just how it is” quirks add unnecessary cognitive load for anyone working in the editor.

Yeah, I noticed that too early with the differences in names like ‘creation date’ versus ‘created date’ or ‘creator’ versus ‘created by’, so it was hard from the outset for two developers to stay in sync, can not imagine how hard it is now to keep 80 in sync.

The main Bubble site is built by their in-house Bubble devs. The nerdy stuff by their dev teams.
