-- I think the "D" discussion icon is superfluous. What's the point of marking something for discussion? Why not just start a discussion?
-- The name did make me think there'd be live timing function. Unless the thing with the broken, blinking 00h00 is it.
-- Project naming is broken. You allow projects to be named with more than one word, but things break if you do that: you can't use @Project Name, and todos added to a multi-word–named project are saved incorrectly and only get tagged with the first word of the project, so they aren't added to the project at all.
-- The projects should not be listed with arrows between: they imply a hierarchy where there isn't one. Also the general design breaks with more than two realistically named projects: http://imgur.com/Q49W.jpg http://imgur.com/Q49W.jpg
Seriously, everyone should work with real examples. It takes time and mental effort to enter realistic data, but how else will you know how well your product works? And you'll be able to take much nicer looking screenshots that actually show what your product can handle rather than only hint at it and make me figure the rest out myself.
- wim 18y agoThanks for your comments, this is really helpful! - Good point, we used the 'D'-icon to show other team members that a discussion was needed before this task could be completed, a sort of specific 'waiting for'. Conversely it would also indicate when there was no discussion needed. We could make this more clear. - The "broken blinking 00h00 thing" :) is indeed currently the only actual timer in the app. It counts hh:mm you're currently working on something. So it does time, but we know there's room for improvement there. The name Thymer also fits with the names of other products we're working on, we'll blog about that soon. - You're right. Sorry it should be made more clear that the name it meant as a short tag (which you can type fast to assign tasks to it), whereas the description can be used to add additional information and a longer name. - True, it's used as a separator with some nice visual touch, but I realize it implies some relationship. I'll look into it, thanks. Good point about the real examples. That was actually the idea but the tag/description thing is obviously very confusing. It will be fixed. [edit:layout]
