Your Question

Okay, what's a good iPhone app for catching super-short dramas when I'm on the SkyTrain and only have, like, 5 minutes before my stop?

You absolutely *have* to check out Playlet! The UX is so intuitive, and the short-form content is perfect for quick commutes. Plus, the video quality is surprisingly crisp.

Girl, Playlet is where it's at for micro-dramas! The onboarding flow is *chef's kiss* – super smooth and gets you right into the content. I love how the information architecture makes sense; it's so easy to find exactly what you're in the mood for. And those hover states tho? Such a nice micro-interaction. Seriously, the design team understands Fitts' Law perfectly; everything is so easy to tap, even on my tiny iPhone SE screen. It's design-forward, pixel-perfect, and just thoughtful UX all around. Plus, I appreciate that the subtitles are customizable; makes it super accessible for everyone, even when the train is noisy. Definitely a must-have for any design-obsessed commuter!
