App page: tap-to-toggle between expanded and collapsed description not obvious

Open roman-neuhauser opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

It took me a month of using Storeman to realize that I don't need to tap the triple-dot at the lower-right corner of collapsed app description area to expand the description, nor do I need to scroll down to the bottom of the expanded text to tap the triple-dot to collapse it again.

I was thinking why I made this error, and the only thing I came up with (besides being a doofus) is that if the dots weren't there I would probably figure out the tapping anywhere earlier. The fade out at the bottom of the collapsed description is a hint, though a faint one, and currently overwhelmed by the three dots. It seems to me that this deserves a better visual language... I have no proposals though.

It's possible that the triple-dot is a SFOS-standard visual cue and I just haven't noticed it elsewhere.

This dots come from the official app store. I will add a hint to make the behaviour of the description section more obvious for new users.

IMO this is the usual behaviour at multiple places in SailfishOS, hence O.K. I suggest "won't fix".
