Add image editing tools to the shot creation flow

Open jaredhirsch opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

Based on conversations with John, the working hypothesis about Screenshots users is that Screenshots is a convenience tool.

Assuming this is true, can we add more value by introducing features into the shot creation flow, versus adding features on the website? (Or is this just the Firefox gravity well distorting my thinking?)

We can test this hypothesis by adding the image editor toolbar to the preview screen and A/B testing usage/retention.

Here's an extremely crude mockup, with the toolbar moved into the preview frame:

I think this is a great idea! Maybe even differentiating "Save" and "Edit' would help. That's because save doesn't indicate to the users that it'd lead them to an editing feature.

I stumbled here in quest to learn how to annotate my screenshots. "Save them to the cloud first" is not intuitive. +1 for this request.
