That UI stinks. Who would know to click on the QR code to open a payment request? A payment request doesn't even involve addresses that are visible to the user, it makes no sense that it is under "send to address".
- lnanek2 12y agoHopefully they just have a really big click target and clicking on the address would have worked too, although I admit some clear verbage or a button would probably be better. It is good practice to link images and areas around actions in general, because users do tend to click on them.
- nwh 12y agoQR codes aren't the sort of thing anybody has been trained to click though, there's no other cue to even begin to suggest that it might initiate a payment request. To me that would just be a QR code of a Bitcoin address that is in plaintext to the right of it. Showing me this page I would have said there's no payment request support at all.
- lnanek2 12y agoLooks like even for handling the older URI protocol they don't underline the linked destination address to send money to unless you hover over it: http://blog.coinbase.com/post/78127728420/support-for-bitcoin-payment-urls http://blog.coinbase.com/post/78127728420/support-for-bitcoi... So destination address could be clickable in this. I think they should keep it underlined, though, personally. I guess even Google is throwing that out lately.
