App UI / UX Handling

3. Let’s take these as examples...
● Make a table
reservation
● Create an
account for social
chatting
● Create an
account for art
sharing

4. What we need to consider..
1. Does the email
need to be
verified?
2. Do we need to
restrict users
behaviours to
make the app
consistency?
From OUR point of view :
1. The purpose of email
2. The email content
3. The design layout of email

5. ● How to handle long text
fields?
When users sign up / edit profile...
● What actions does they take
when they want to quit app?
Show “...”

text is cut

6. When users want to get up-to-date list from apps...
Different ways to refresh a list / a table..
● Manually (Pull down / click on a
button)
● Automatically (Update instantly /
through some time)
Whether user should be able to scroll a
list infinitely..
● Show a limit number of items
● Page by page

7. How should we handle no internet connection issue?
● An accurate
messages should
be given to notify
users
● Display a
cached view of
last seen data
● Display a no
network blank
screen
● Operate
normally and
sync afterward
