Took 40 minutes to find a 'hidden' setting in my anime app, turns out it was a filter this whole time
I was trying to sort my watchlist by air date for a rewatch of an older series and the option just was not showing up. Kept clicking around the profile tab, the library tab, even reset the app twice. Then I finally noticed a tiny gear icon inside the search bar itself that I never touched. The sort option was right there the whole time, behind a dropdown I thought was just for text filters. I wasted a whole evening on this, anyone else ever miss something that obvious in a streaming app?

Waited 40 minutes for a gear icon hiding inside the search bar? That is genuinely painful to picture. You reset the app twice, dug through every tab, and the whole time it was basically waving at you from a dropdown you already had open. I once spent an entire night looking for a subtitle toggle that was just sitting right on the video screen the whole time. These apps really do hide the simple stuff in the weirdest spots. Makes you wonder who designs this stuff and whether they ever actually use it.
