#1 | ‧ Learnability/Efficiency:
1. Multiple accessibility: Liked
that we provide two ways to
access to friends. One is
by clicking on friend’s
picture on the map in the
home screen and the
other way is by clicking
on “My friends.”
| ‧ Learnability
1. Not speaking user's
language:
"What" is ambiguous. She
suggested that we should use
"History" or "Statistics" instead.
‧ Efficiency
1. Add multiple people to a
LocaShare: We should support
adding multiple people to a Loca-
Share. User suggested that this
could be achieved by
i. Choosing multiple people
while creating a LocaShare.
ii. Have a "who" tab in the
setting menu to add people
and view people who has
already been added in the
LocaShare.
2. LocaShare naming: The app
should allow users to name the
new LocaShare, since it makes
LocaShares easy to remember.
User also suggested that we
could provide a default name
of a LocaShare, but it should
be fragile. | ‧ Learnability
1. Different conceptual model:
I should be able to know all the
LocaShares that I have with Bob,
rather than just showing the
aggregated location sharing
information.
2. Not speaking user's
language:
The sentence "View me as Bob"
is confusing.
3. Different conceptual model:
User tried to click on Bob's
profile page and find a way to
view how Bob sees me. (This
behavior is just the opposite
from what we faced in first
iteration).
‧ Efficiency
1. Too many button clicks:
User felt annoying when she
was informed that there is
still one more button click
to finish creating a
new LocaShare. She
suggested that the app
should just show the inform
without asking user to click
on "ok".
| 1. Option to "Duplicate" the
locashares to create them
for other people.
2.Should provide a list of LocaShares. |
#2 | ‧ Learnability
1. Unclear affordance: User
suggested to have an icon below
the photo to show an affordance
of clicking
‧ Visibility
1. User expressed that she
would like to know her location
on the map in the home screen. | ‧ Learnability
1. Not speaking user's
language: Instead of using "What" to
mean statistic charts, we should use
"History" or "Statistics". Also, instead of
using "Where" and "When", use "Location"
and "Time" would be more clear.
2. Inconsistent time display:
It is bad to use both military time and
normal time.
‧ Efficiency
1. Duplicate charts: User suggested to
have only one chart with a bar to control
the frequency instead of having daily,
weekly, and monthly three separate
charts. (Or, it should use different charts
in different context. Restaurants -- how
many times, Location Tracking --
amount of time)
2. Add multiple people to a
LocaShare: We should support
adding multiple people to a Loca-
Share.
3. Global function: User should be able to
set a global preference which overrides all
the LocaShares. (For example: During this
time, I don't want to be seen by anybody.) | ‧ Learnability
1. Different conceptual model:
User tried to click on Bob's
profile page and find a way to
view how Bob sees me. She says
that since the information is "seen
by Bob," it should not be in my
profile page.
2. Number of times in the chart
*is confusing: *Say they're at a
restaurant and they get a phone
call. So they exit the restaurant,
complete their phone call and
come back. Does that constitute
two visits? Displaying the
amount of time on the chart
may be more useful. | 1. User would be more interested in an
app which shares her exact location all
the time, but she is allowed to specify
the when to share.
2. User suggested that it may be more
intuitive to give the user an option of
specifying how long they would like
information to be stored (in number
of days)
3. What if there are multiple restaurants
in a building. How would LocaShare
identify the location as? |
#3 | ‧ Learnability
1. Affordance mismatch:
The bubble-like shape that looks
like Joe is "saying" something.
| ‧ Learnability
1. Inconsistent time display:
It is bad to use both military time and
normal time.
2. Not speaking user's
language: Instead of using "What" to
mean statistic charts, we should use
"History" or "Statistics".
3. Different mental model: May I add the
date to "when"? That is, may users are
allowed to set an expiration date for a
LocaShare?
4.
‧ Efficiency
1. Recognition v.s recall: User suggested
that we should provide the locations we
have already decided to share, they are
uneditable, but would serve the way to
remind user where they have already
shared.
2. Recommended location settings:
User said that it would be helpful to show
past statistics of locations I usually share
with others (simplify the need to create
new locations on the map)
3. Grouping for friends: User suggested
that we should allow
‧ Visibility
1. User did not notice that there is a
"minus" button there allowing her to
delete time.
| ‧ Learnability
1. Not speaking user's
language:
The sentence "View me as Bob"
is confusing
2. Different conceptual model:
User tried to click on Bob's
profile page and find a way to
view how Bob sees me.
3. Confusing icons:
User asked why there are two
pictures when I try to view me as
Bob?
*
4. Affordance: * Instead of using
charts, user suggested that we
can use a map with multiple locations
indicating the places a person has
been to. And use the size of the
bubble to show how many times
a person has been to the location. | |
