Apple's Newest iPhone X Ad Captures an Embarrassing iOS 11 Bug (theverge.com)

Tom Warren, writing for The Verge: If you blink during Apple's latest iPhone ad, you might miss a weird little animation bug. It's right at the end of a slickly produced commercial, where the text from an iMessage escapes the animated bubble it's supposed to stay inside. It's a minor issue and easy to brush off, but the fact it's captured in such a high profile ad just further highlights Apple's many bugs in iOS 11. 9to5Mac writer Benjamin Mayo spotted the bug in Apple's latest ad, and he's clearly surprised "that this was signed off for the commercial," especially as he highlighted it months ago and has filed a bug report with Apple.

    Not only that: it's an animation bug... animation! Seriously. That's one of the most minor bugs you can have.

    I'm also pretty sure normal people didn't notice. I most certainly didn't.
