Thought experiment
How would you like if I reverted to the standard Android Wear user interface?
Advantages:
► More consistent look
► More space for verbal descriptions
► Cleaner appearance
► Better 1st impression
Disadvantages:
► Less practical
► Options don’t stand out as much
► More scrolling
► More taps to get things done
► More translations necessary
► A lot of work to convert look
► Help videos all show the current look
I think the current layout is practical, but it might feel strange for 1st time users. The number of settings is still daunting, if anything, in the standard layout they even appear to be more…
I am curious of your opinion!
