Description

Buttons should use title case, not sentence case. See Apple Human Interface Guidelines.

Use title-case for titles. Capitalize every word except articles, coordinating conjunctions, and prepositions of four or fewer letters.

famico666 (on Reddit) shared the following comment:

Please remove the "Use title case" request from the list.

For a start, it's not really a standard - the request quotes Apple, but they're pretty unusual among big tech companies for that. See Google or Github for sentence case.

Secondly, as both case types are common, why clutter the request list with something so arbitrary and trivial?

The redditor's comment indicates a lack of understanding. The Apple Design Guidelines are for apps; websites are not covered.

I've updated the description to indicate this is iOS-specific. On Android, button labels should be in all-caps.
