  • Users were confused by the arrow on the map, likely because the posts were located in an unfamiliar place. One user suggested that we change the arrow from a solid line to a dotted line to look more like a path on a map.

Edit Mode:

  • Users added photos using the new "(+ camera)" button, which was much faster than trying to figure out how to add a picture. The small buttons for adding items seemed to improve both learnability and efficiency significantly.
  • Users were still confused about how to delete photos. Some just had no idea what to do, most just tried tapping on the photo. We decided that since everyone just tried tapping once on the photo, we would move the cursor to right after the photo when they tap it so all they have to do to remove it is press backspace. In addition, we added the ability to delete photos by pressing and holding on them, which helped a little but not as much as we would have liked. One user suggested adding the ability to delete photos by double tapping on them.

View Mode:

  • Users were a little confused by the disappearance of the share/edit/delete buttons after a few seconds. However, when they needed to perform those functions it was more intuitive to use those buttons than the "Menu" button or pressing and holding the screen. Also the disappearance on screen will be less obvious and distracting when it does not involve someone physically moving the buttons away from the user.
  • One user recommended that we toggle the share/edit/delete buttons by tapping on the screen. After they disappear, the user can tap once on the screen to get them back, and again to make them disappear. This seemed more useful than having them appear when the user scrolls, since the user may want to view the entire post cleanly while they are scrolling.
