I could easily see someone be foolish enough to go up to predators
- AnujNayyar 8mo agoWe thought about this and specifically decided not to award xp based on an animals danger rating. Even though we warn users in the onboarding to take care in the wild, TikTok and similar platforms have shown people acting foolishly is not something you can fully control
- dylan604 8mo agoDo you put up anything when ID'ing a dangerous situation like "RUUUUUN!!!" or similar? Maybe a more serious idea would be to give some sort of visual indication of danger vs loading some text to read that says it's dangerous.
- AnujNayyar 8mo agoYeah the first thing that comes up is a full page splash screen saying ‘DANGEROUS SPECIES Be careful’ So hopefully people will get the memo immediately!
- shermantanktop 8mo agoIf i have learned anything about UX, it's that 1) people don't read, 2) people also don't read, and 3) if you have something important to tell them, don't make them read. What that leaves you as options is pretty limited.
- dylan604 8mo agoDepends on the situation though. If you've taken an image of something you want to identify, people are going to read it when you give them text to read. If that text as any longer than just the name of the thing you IDd then they'll probably stop reading.
