I think, when I got my SE two and a half years ago, it was more helpful than it 
currently is.  

Of course, the Hadley videos and this list have been more helpful to me.

Subject: Re: applevis.com has no search box

The last time I was on applevis, which hasn't been too long ago, I got the same 
info so I just gave up. It's not as accessible as it was as some people want to 
think.

        Following up on the comment about people needing to use Applevos.com 
before asking questions on this list…

        I just went to Applevis.com with Microsoft Edge and with Firefox.

         

        There are no search boxes, none, nada, nowhere.

         

        If you are looking for information on an app, you cannot simply search 
for it.

        You have to drill down through many pages to get anything.

        Even, after following the link from the main page titled, “Apps,” and 
you find the heading for Apps, it says:

        Apps

        article

        Here at AppleVis we strive to make it easier for you to find great and 
accessible apps to use on Apple products.

        From this page, you can browse and search our directories of iOS, 
iPadOS, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple TV apps; see what apps others are 
recommending; and

        see which iOS and iPadOS apps our community has inducted into our Hall 
Of Fame.

         

        So, I followed the link to search, then you have a bunch (I was going 
to say s***load, but thought better of it) of more links with not a search box 
anywhere to be found.

         

        So, at this point, applevis is only marginally useful, especially for 
someone who is a beginner.

         

        I have been using iDevices since they became accessible and can find 
what I need most of the time without resorting to asking too many questions on 
the list, but I used to always refer people to Applevis, especially for their 
blog about updates, and I will still recommend that.

        But as a source to find information about specific apps, or just apps 
in general, it is a crazy rabbit-warren of trails that I won’t be bothering 
with.

        "He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must 
pass himself,” and we forget that only grace can break the cycle of ancient 
hatreds among peoples. (It is notable that while I have regretted not granting 
grace to others, I’ve never once regretted extending it.)" - Edward Herbert
