Things have evolved since I last went thru the thread. What can I say, I'm more interested in a mobile that instigates me to live more than I am it to give me a convo. Perhaps I'm evolving to something else.
That said, I'd like to add UX questions to
the list I made before
. Here we go:
- open the clock; set an alarm; are you asked for the snooze time after you set the alarm; is it easy to create preset alarms which are deactivated until you activate them. Can you set a sleep timer; can the sleep/alarm sound be set to music you've loaded
- create an appointment, in the location field put an address in your city, save the appointment. Go back to view the appointmnet. Can you click on the location and it open the maps. When you close the map view, does it take you back to the calendar, or to the event feed. Does it cache the map view you looked at.
- create an appointment. In the location field, put a phone number. Save the appointment. Go back to the appointment view. Can you click on the phone number and it dial? Can you add pauses and additional numbers (call-in codes) to that number - for conference calls.
- enable location/GPS for pictures; take a picture; save it to your gallery. Is the gallery able to show you pictures by location? Is there a view in the calendar to show you pictures on the day you've taken them w/o showing you anything else on the calendar?
- navigate via the web browser to a page with a downloadable PDF; download and save the PDF. when you zoom in on the PDF, does the text reflow; do images reflow too. Can you click on links. How much a delay to load a large/heavy PDF than a small one. Can you attach that PDF easily to an email - can you share/attach to an email that PDF right from the PDF - not starting first with an email. Can you attach that PDF to a calendar entry. Can you attach it to a contact?
- can you alter the browser configuration (about
:config, extensions, etc.); are you able to change the DNS or proxy settings from the browser not just from the settings app.
- can you unmerge contacts you've merged; what's the process of bulk deleting, editing, or merging/unmerging
I'll have more questions as I think about them. But, its clear that I could have had a lot of fun with Jolla as a product tester - there is a minimum viable product state that was met with this release that I think was too low given some of the comments so far. That said, what's been shipped is quite impressive. Its the updates which add polish that should make for a very interesting product going forward - especially as it relates to Jolla being a device/platform designer for other companies going forward.
