I'm sorry your feelings were hurt when I declined to install your wonderful app that offers access to your website. Perhaps I just wasn't open to the awesome possibilities your app was offering me, but I already have a web browser that works just fine and couldn't be arsed to install more stuff. It's not you, it's me. I'm a bad, bad person. I get it. Now, about your "Scroll Up Bar"... It is indeed a very fine looking user interface, but my web browser already has one. I just can't seem to stop doing things that hurt your feelings, but could you please give me the option to turn that thing off?
If you're really having trouble justifying your job, perhaps I can help you out with a small suggestion. You may have noticed a trend towards wider aspect ratio screens over the last few years. Screens have gotten so bloody wide that practically nobody wants to read a column of text that is fully as wide as their screen! People were designing websites with UI elements on the sides even back when screens were slender 1.33:1 twigs instead of the McDonald's super-sized behemoths we have on our desks today. Perhaps you should take your bar, rotate it 90 degrees, and stick it on the side where there's space for it!
Sincerely,
An ungrateful, lazy, bad person who just can't be pleased.
